About this Project

At the DSV Warehouse in West Thurrock, NCS undertook extensive industrial deconstruction works to clear and reconfigure large sections of the facility for a new drive-through loading process. The project included the removal of dock shelters, cladding, elevated structures, warehouse interiors, and a two-storey office building. Careful coordination ensured all equipment and redundant services were removed efficiently, with all materials cleared from site for safe disposal or recycling.
