Got a text last night from one of my semi-regular clients. He bought a bowling alley. I do not know what is in it, like if it was used as a warehouse or what. But he is sending me pictures today sometime.
So, my question is, what are your thoughts on doing a bowling alley? Does anybody have an idea on how to go about doing it? I will update later today with more information and possibly pictures

Someone started a thread a few years ago where they were scrapping a bowling alley. Pics included. I don't remember who it was though.
One thought comes with mind, the wood from the alleys might have additional value. Other than that photos are always welcome. 73, Mike

Thank you guys I will search again and see what I can find.
Whole bowling lanes have resale value I suppose as long as they are a good brand and are in good shape. I'm supposed to get pictures today and when I get them, I'll put them up here. Thank you again for the info

Watch an old episode of “Salvage Dawgs” to see a few ideas regarding the wood from bowling lanes.

An old man boards a bus with bowling balls in each of his front pockets. He sits down next to a beautiful lady, and she can’t help but glance at the man and his bulging pockets. It’s an uneasy few minutes before, finally, the old man can take no more of her attention. “Bowling balls,” he nods reassuringly. The blonde seems a little shocked and stares on. Moments later, she says: “Does it hurt as much as tennis elbow?”
Better than the dump!

I scrapped out a bowling alley about 5 years ago...32 lanes if I recall and 40 tons over 5 days. I know I posted pics but they were hosted on Photo Bucket so who knows if they are still up.
Edit: Pics on page 2 of this thread.

That's the thread I found. Looked like a lot of work. Unfortunately, I am just getting a few things out of this place. Should fit in my baby truck and trailer. I wish he would've told me just how much there was when he texted me the other night that he had some metal for me.
