Heavy Industrial Demolition,
Done Right.
When you're decommissioning a manufacturing plant, leveling a warehouse, or stripping out heavy industrial equipment, you can't afford a contractor that's still figuring it out. Dade Wrecking Contractors has been Miami's go-to industrial demolition company for over 22 years — pulling permits, managing utilities, controlling dust and debris, and safely taking down structures most crews won't touch.
We work across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, partnering with property owners, general contractors, developers, and industrial clients on plant decommissioning, warehouse teardowns, process equipment removal, and full structural demolition. Our crews are OSHA-trained, our equipment fleet is sized for any project, and our license ( CGC1524543) is fully current.
Need a different scope? We also handle commercial demolition , residential demolition , and land clearing across South Florida.
Our Industrial Demolition Capabilities
From single-building teardowns to complete facility decommissioning, we handle every phase in-house — no subcontracting the heavy lifting.
02
Warehouse Demolition
Steel-frame, tilt-wall, and pre-engineered warehouse demolition with controlled collapse, debris segregation, and full site clearance.
03
Heavy Structural Demo
Reinforced concrete, structural steel, silos, smokestacks, and large-format industrial buildings — taken down safely and on schedule.
04
Process Equipment Removal
Dismantling and removal of tanks, conveyors, mills, presses, and process lines — with scrap value recovery where applicable to offset costs.
05
Foundation & Slab Removal
Heavy concrete foundations, slabs, and footings cut, broken out, and hauled — leaving the site graded and build-ready for redevelopment.
06
Site Remediation Prep
Pre-remediation clearing, debris removal, and access prep for environmental remediation crews. We coordinate cleanly with hazmat and environmental contractors.
// Our Process
From Quote to Cleared Slab.
Industrial demolition has more moving parts than residential or commercial work. Here's how we keep it simple.
01
Site Walk & Scoping
We walk your facility, document existing conditions, identify hazards (asbestos, hydraulic oils, transformers, etc.), and scope the project with your team — usually within 1–2 business days of your first call.
02
Permits & Utility Coordination
We pull every permit (demolition, abatement, stormwater, right-of-way) and coordinate utility disconnects with FPL, water/sewer, and gas providers so your site is fully isolated before we mobilize.
03
Mobilization & Demolition
Equipment, fencing, dust controls, and crew on site — typically within 1 week of permit issue. We work top-down or controlled collapse depending on structure type, with 24/7 supervision.
04
Haul-Off & Site Clearance
All debris segregated and hauled — concrete recycled where possible, steel sent to scrap, hazardous waste manifested correctly. You get a clean, graded site ready for the next phase of your project.
05
Permit Close-Out & Sign-Off
We schedule final inspections, close out every permit with the city, and hand you a clean record — so there's nothing left hanging when you're ready to redevelop.

Common Questions from Industrial Clients
Everything you need to know before greenlighting an industrial demolition project in South Florida.
How much does industrial demolition cost in Miami?
Industrial demolition costs in South Florida vary widely based on building size, materials, site complexity, and hazardous material content. As a rough range, mid-size warehouses typically run $40,000 to $200,000, while full plant decommissioning projects can range from $200,000 into seven figures depending on equipment removal and remediation prep.
We give detailed line-item quotes after a site walk so you see exactly what drives the price — no surprises mid-project.
Do industrial demolition projects need special permits?
Yes — almost always more than one. Industrial sites in Miami-Dade typically require a demolition permit, asbestos abatement clearance, stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP), utility disconnect coordination, and sometimes right-of-way and environmental permits depending on what was on site.
We pull and manage every permit ourselves. You don't deal with the city or the state — we do.
How long does industrial demolition take?
Most warehouse and mid-size industrial projects run 2 to 6 weeks on site, plus 4–8 weeks of permitting, abatement, and utility disconnect time before mobilization. Larger plant decommissioning can run 3+ months depending on equipment salvage and remediation needs.
Do you handle asbestos and hazardous materials?
We coordinate directly with licensed asbestos abatement and hazmat contractors, sequencing their work into the demolition schedule. We never demolish a structure with known asbestos or hazardous materials before proper abatement is completed — Florida law and OSHA require it, and frankly, it's the only safe way.
Can you recover scrap value from process equipment?
Yes. For projects with significant steel, copper, aluminum, or stainless equipment, we can structure the contract to credit scrap value back against the demolition cost — in some cases offsetting a meaningful portion of the project price. We discuss salvage strategy during scoping.
What areas do you serve for industrial demolition?
We handle industrial demolition projects throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Frequent project areas include Miami, Hialeah, Doral, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, Pembroke Pines, West Palm Beach, and the major industrial corridors along I-95 and the Florida Turnpike.
