Question Remove full height cabinets in the garage

I just moved into the villages. My garage has full height cabinets on all of the walls, I want to have some removed from (2) of the walls. They appear to be attached to the wall some how, but I don't know how.
They are good storage cabinets, so it would be a shame to destroy them.
How do I find out if someone wants them (no charge)?
Or, who can remove them and dispose of them?

If you look carefully at the cabinets you may find color coordinated caps over the mounting screws. Your posting should get you some interest from someone looking for cabinets. If no one expresses interest, one of the local handyman should be able to remove these, and of course your last resort is to simply destroy in place with a big hammer.

I'm sure someone on here will come and take them down and haul them off for free.

I can't answer your questions, but just to say that our neighbors did the same as soon as they moved in, then regretted their decision. It may be worth your living with them for a few months to see if you still want them gone.

I usually see these in white. You could post free here ^ on the classified stating you remove them, etc.

I agree with a previous poster. Live with them for a bit. You may find they’re good for overflow from your house and free up closets.

Give it some time before removing these cabinets; you can never have enough storage!

Like others have said, I would give it a little bit of time after you move in. Unless you are in need of the space now. But I would be interested in your cabinets.
Feel free to call or message me thank you Mike 541-951-6904

My daughter had those in her garage, they hung on a rail attached to the wall...see if they just lift off.

Storage is the NUMBER ONE issue with TV homes. I have to agree—you’ll regret removing them. There’s a reason the former owner put them up.

I would be happy to look at them to see if I could remove them from the wall at no charge. Happy to help my
neighbors.
