Commercial Clean-Out & Office Relocation in NYC: Surgery Partners (48-Hour Decommissioning)
WALTER completed a 48-hour commercial clean-out and office relocation for Surgery Partners in NYC, achieving 100% landfill diversion through donation and recycling while delivering a fully decommissioned, broom-clean medical space.
Client: Surgery Partners
The Problem
Surgery Partners needed to execute a full commercial clean-out and medical office decommissioning in NYC within a strict 48-hour deadline. The scope included: - Vacating a colonoscopy floor - Removing and disposing of medical and office furniture - Relocating operations to a new NYC office Operational risks included: - Disorganized and scattered workspace slowing execution - Staff being pulled away from core operations - Tight timeline with zero tolerance for delays or compliance issues - Requirement for zero landfill impact and responsible disposal This required a single partner capable of handling clean-out, compliance, logistics, and relocation simultaneously—not fragmented vendors.
