Rules for bollard removal jobs in England
Bollards on adopted highway are a matter for the highway authority under the Highways Act 1980, so they need its written agreement. On private land the owner's agreement is what matters; listed buildings and conservation areas need a word with the planning team first.

How installation works
Survey what is in the ground
The free site survey identifies bollard types, likely foundation sizes, any power or ducts, and what the area will be used for next. You receive a fixed written quote for the agreed level of removal.
Check consents and reasons
Before removal, check whether the bollards were required by a planning condition, a lease, a security plan or the highway authority, and whether they protect something such as a meter or a building corner.
Make supplies safe
For automatic and lighting bollards, a qualified electrician isolates and disconnects the supply, and hydraulic units are drained.
Remove posts and foundations
Posts are cut off or extracted, foundations broken out where agreed, and sockets, cassettes and ducts removed or capped.

Can removed bollards be reused elsewhere on site?
Often, if they come out undamaged. Steel posts and removable bollards relocate well. New foundations are formed at the new positions.
Will the surface look patched after removal?
On block paving it can be nearly invisible, as the blocks are relaid. Tarmac, resin and concrete usually show a patch, especially on older weathered surfaces. Timing removal before resurfacing avoids that.
