Thanks a bunch everyone for the info. I got the shelves removed now I
am trying to figure out whether or not to take the support piece down or leave it up. How would I go about taking that piece down if I decided to do that? Thanks |

Anyhow if removed, it'll show bare drywall and marks. How about leaving them on and install a coat hook or something to hang small items. |

How would I go about taking that piece down if I decided to do that? Thanks It may be up with nails or screws. If up with screws, they may have been countersunk and covered. If they did a good job, you can't see them :-( Worst case is they are nailed/screwed and glued. Not usually the case. |

Well the support strips were up with nails. All we did was take a pry
bar and go from the top and pry them down. Some were slightly damaged but most were in good shape after getting them down. It didn't leave the wall too awful either. They at least textured the wall underneath but it just needs paint and should look good. Thanks everyone. It was a success. |
