Are these sentences right? (take off)

Hi teachers,
In this case, it's optional to separate 'off', except with the object pronoun 'them', right?
a) I'll take the old magazines off from the shelves.
b) I'll take off the old magazines from the shelves.
a) I'll take them off from the shelves.

Thanks in advance.

Hi AG,
Thank you for your reply. I've read in some on line webs that it is separable.
Why it is not in the original sentence.
