Disposal of Redundant Equipment & Furniture When my restaurant closed a few years ago after all the tears and recriminations we had to try to get as much as possible back to the investors. We decided to sell the equipment which had originally costs us almost $500,000. We had a local dealer to arrange an auction, and we sold most of the furniture and a few of the larger pieces, at as you might imagine a very steep discount. Yet our more specialize equipment, especially our ovens, [I was in love with those ovens], did not sell because the right buyers didn’t show to the auction. The landlord was putting a lot of pressure on us so we had to move quickly, because he was threatening to seize the equipment if we didn’t pay another month’s rent at $35, 200 a month. To make a long sad story short, we hired a local moving company to come in and move the equipment into storage. That it turned out was the most expensive mistake we could have made. These guys didn’t understand the equipment or realize either the functional or cosmetic value of the equipment. Much of the equipment was dented, wires were cut at places that required the equipment to be repaired prior to sale, and some key flanges were deformed. In the end we lost more money on that equipment then we would have paid for the extra month’s rent. Based upon this experience, I started working with Alacrity to put together this specialized equipment moving company. Our guys will give your equipment the white glove treatment that it deserves, especially if you want to retain the bulk of its resale value. Give us a try…you won’t be sorry!
