Why Dock Equipment & Site Work Matter for Industrial Investors
Loading dock equipment and site improvements are the biggest missed depreciation opportunity for industrial property owners.
Loading docks, dock levelers, overhead doors, heavy-duty electrical, crane systems, and paved yards are 5 and 15-year depreciable property — not part of the 39-year building. Industrial properties often have extensive site work that qualifies for accelerated depreciation.
With bonus depreciation, eligible dock equipment and site improvements can be deducted in Year 1 — turning your industrial infrastructure into immediate deductions.
Industrial properties typically have $50K–$180K+ in dock equipment and site improvements. Without cost segregation, those deductions are spread over 39 years instead of taken in Year 1.

Frequently Asked Questions
Cost segregation is an IRS-recognized depreciation method that reclassifies portions of your property into shorter depreciation categories (5, 7, and 15 years instead of 39). For industrial property owners, this means accelerating tens of thousands of dollars in deductions into the early years of ownership — reducing your taxable income significantly. Warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities often have substantial dock equipment and site work that qualifies.
Loading dock levelers, dock bumpers, overhead doors, dock seals and shelters, and related mechanical systems are typically classified as 5-year property. Heavy-duty electrical panels, crane systems, and specialized flooring may also qualify. Site improvements like paved truck courts, fencing, exterior lighting, and drainage systems are classified as 15-year property. Our study identifies and schedules each component separately.
Yes. Warehouses, distribution centers, fulfillment facilities, and all types of industrial properties are excellent candidates for cost segregation. These properties often have significant amounts of dock equipment, specialized electrical and mechanical systems, and extensive site improvements — all of which can be reclassified into shorter depreciation lives.
Just the basics: property address, purchase price, square footage, and year built. Our intake form takes about 5 minutes. No site visit required. Photos and documents (closing statement, tax assessment) are optional but can improve accuracy.
Studies are delivered within 48 hours as a CPA-ready PDF sent to your email. Your CPA can use it directly — no additional formatting needed.
Yes. If you didn't do cost segregation when you bought the property, you can file a Form 3115 (Change in Accounting Method) to catch up on missed depreciation — without amending prior returns. The full catch-up amount is taken in a single year.
Yes. Our methodology follows the IRS Cost Segregation Audit Techniques Guide. Each study includes component-level analysis, IRS asset class citations, and supporting engineering narratives. We recommend all clients work with their CPA when filing.
