Pallet Rack Increases Warehouse Space
The signs have been around for
some time but it’s finally time to face
the grim reality: It appears your warehouse is
running out of space. You may have a good pallet
rack system in place, but successful companies
grow and change over time. What are the signs
that it could be time to upgrade your pallet rack
system?
- Space is at 80 to 85 percent
capacity.
- New equipment won’t
fit, even if you need it to serve your customers.
- It’s a struggle to store
new inventory coming in.
- At full inventory, very few
of your storage areas are empty.
- There’s clutter on the
floor.
- Employees are getting in each
other’s way and bumping into each other.

morale and high employee turnover.

when loading or unloading.

else out of the way.
