Beale Street Demolition LLC · Memphis, TN · 11 photos
Structural steel recovered from a 1968 distribution warehouse teardown. Beams and plate torch-cut to 5ft lengths, stacked and ready to load. Three to four truckloads. Site must be clear before the handover date — hard deadline, no extensions.

Weights are the generator's estimate at posting. They carry no settlement weight — only a certified reading does.
Bundling both sides into one all-in quote would force every yard to also solve trucking — the exact capability small yards lack. Splitting the bid lets a yard that cannot dispatch a truck still compete on price.
