In Ghent (9000), Sparkling Services clears workshops, depots and warehouses according to the real access: loading dock, ground-level door or yard. We work with your forklift operator or manually, at weekends if needed, and provide a VAT invoice in your company's name.
Warehouse and workshop clearance in Ghent: our approach
In Ghent, the big volumes come mainly from the port, part of North Sea Port, where industrial and logistics companies line the Ghent-Terneuzen canal. A warehouse becoming vacant there means a job of pallet racking, pallets and scrap metal, sometimes with a steel mezzanine to dismantle. The Technologiepark in Zwijnaarde and The Loop tend to produce storerooms, technical rooms and storage equipment. In districts such as Muide or Brugse Poort, we also clear old workshops and tradespeople's depots. Saleable machines, tools and racking are deducted from the quote.
- Racking and demountable mezzanines: emptied, dismantled top to bottom, resold or recycled.
- Machines and tools: value deducted from the price, once disconnected by your electrician.
- Oils and chemicals: kept apart and handed to a specialised collection.

Warehouse or workshop in Ghent: access, loading and removal
In Ghent, the circulation plan divides the centre into sectors: for a depot or workshop in town, the truck's route is prepared in advance. If the truck has to stand on the public road, the City requires a "vergunning inname publieke ruimte" at least 5 working days ahead for a parking space, 10 working days if it occupies the carriageway, and the applicant places the signs: we take care of that. In the port area it is different: we load in the yard or at the dock, within the site manager's hours. We do not drive your forklift; your operator can bring down the high pallets, otherwise we work manually. IVAGO's recycling parks serve Ghent households; our business streams, metals, wood, WEEE and hazardous products, go separately to suitable channels.
Ghent workshops and depots: beluiken, Patershol and Zwijnaarde
Outside the port area, a workshop clearance in Ghent depends heavily on how the district is built. In Brugse Poort, Ledeberg and Muide, some workshops are hidden in the beluiken, inner courtyards lined with small 19th-century workers' houses and reached through a covered passage: no vehicle gets in, everything is carried by hand to the street, and carrying time matters more than volume.
In the Patershol and around the Gravensteen, the medieval lanes often admit only a van; a shop's store is cleared there in several trips to a truck parked further away. The vehicle must also comply with the low-emission zone.
Further out, Drongen, Mariakerke and Zwijnaarde have houses with gardens and garages: the stock of a self-employed business or a hobby workshop leaves at ground level, which shortens the day considerably.
