Highway 99 Industrial Corridor DemolitionWarehouses, Packing Sheds & Heavy Slabs
Warehouse, ag-industrial structure and heavy concrete slab demolition in Fresno, CA.
The Highway 99 corridor through Fresno is a working industrial landscape of warehouses, distribution buildings, cold storage and agricultural-industrial structures such as packing sheds. Demolition along it is a heavy-equipment business: large footprints, thick slabs, deep footings and a long list of utilities and process systems to deal with before anything comes down.
Fresno Demolition Co approaches these projects as site-clearing programs. We start with what the building used to do, since former packing, refrigeration or fuel operations can leave materials that need special handling, and plan dust control, truck access and concrete processing around a scale that residential work never reaches.
What Highway 99 Industrial Corridor Demolition Jobs Look Like
Warehouse and tilt-up demolition
Complete removal of large concrete-tilt or steel-frame buildings, with panels and structure taken down in a planned sequence and processed on site or hauled out.
Ag-industrial and packing structures
Sheds, cold-storage rooms, canopies and equipment pads that supported produce handling, along with the ammonia or refrigerant systems that need professional decommissioning first.
Heavy slab and footing removal
Thick industrial slabs, equipment foundations and deep footings broken out with heavy hydraulic equipment, then crushed for reuse where specs allow.
Site clearing for redevelopment
Pulling out pavement, fencing, loading docks, underground tanks and old utilities so a parcel is ready for new development.
Permits & Regulations for Highway 99 Industrial Corridor Projects
Requirements depend on the property and scope. We help you confirm the current rules with the agencies involved rather than assume them.
Jurisdiction check
Corridor parcels may be within the City of Fresno, Clovis or unincorporated Fresno County. Each has its own demolition permit process, so confirm the right agency for the parcel before planning.
Asbestos and NESHAP notification
Industrial buildings can contain asbestos in roofing, panels, pipe insulation and flooring. Valley Air District Rule 4002 applies to demolition and many renovations, and requires advance written notice. A survey by a certified consultant is expected.
Possible hazardous materials
Former ag-industrial or manufacturing sites can have refrigerants, fuels, chemicals, underground tanks or contaminated soil. A Phase I environmental assessment and specialist abatement may be appropriate before demolition.
Dust and stormwater
Valley Air District dust-control rules and stormwater requirements may apply to large earthwork and demolition. Check current obligations with the agencies for your site size.
Highway 99 Industrial Corridor Site Access & Logistics
Truck access and haul routes
Heavy trucks and equipment need adequate gate widths, turning radii and ground conditions. We plan routes from the site to the highway and recycling facilities in advance.
Utility disconnect and process shutdown
Electrical service, gas, water, sewer, fire sprinkler and any process lines have to be shut off, capped and verified before demolition. USA North 811 is contacted before ground work.
Dust and traffic control
Wind in the valley can carry dust, so we plan water suppression, haul-road management and wheel cleanouts to limit tracking onto public roads.

Highway 99 Industrial Corridor Demolition FAQs
Yes, but refrigeration systems, insulated panels and process equipment typically need specialist decommissioning first. We coordinate that sequence and the testing that goes with it, and then take the structure down.
Clean concrete is generally crushed and reused or recycled where facilities and project specs allow. Reinforcing steel is separated and sold as scrap. Contaminated concrete is handled differently, so a site review matters.
Not always, but often it is smart or required by lenders and buyers. A Phase I assessment can flag past uses. Your environmental consultant and the relevant agencies can advise based on the site history.
We use water suppression, manage haul roads and limit stockpile heights, and follow local dust-control rules that may apply to larger sites. Wind conditions are monitored and work can be paused if dust cannot be kept in check.
Utility providers and qualified electricians or plumbers disconnect and cap services; we verify shutoffs before starting. Underground lines are located through USA North 811 before excavation.
