Used Pallet Racks Can Save Companies 60-75% Off Front-End Storage ...

Lumber companies, structural steel fabrication facilities, warehouses, drug companies, aircraft companies, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, furniture manufacturers, and retail merchants are all increasingly enjoying the benefits of used pallet racks when it comes to streamlining their shipping and receiving and placing tighter inventory controls on distribution and procurement process flow.

Because the cost of new equipment is too much of a risk for some companies to take in today’s economy, the savings you can obtain on used equipment might be as high as 75%.

SMP Construction can order used pallet racks as complete units any number of sizes, or we can custom build them from used uprights, horizontal beams, and decking to fit the specific storage requirements of your facility and unique application. Types of decking range from wood supported by wooden or metal crossbars to wire or even steel decking for the heaviest of containers and special equipment.

This can prove a veritable business saver for you if you have outgrown your existing storage space but cannot afford to take the financial hit that moving would certainly cost you. Used pallet racks can be installed “back to back” using row spacers that create “aisles” wide enough to allow material handling equipment to pass between the racks. While narrow-aisle machinery is the most efficient to use in such a setting, SMP Construction can increase the size of row spacers to accommodate forklift traffic if necessary.

Warehouses are a major user of pallet racking because it converts both floor space and vertical cube space into efficient, safe, and readily-accessible storage space that is vital to both inventory control and shipping/receiving process flow. However, pallet racks can also be used outdoors. Typical outside installations are used when storing pipe, lumber, ferrous and non-ferrous shape metals. Ports on the Eastern Seaboard, the West Coast, and the Gulf Coast typically use a great deal of pallet racking to store containers and materials coming in on larger freighters from overseas.

The sheer amount of rack that can we can build for your company is limited by nothing other than the amount of your existing space. It is not uncommon for us to construct both new and used pallet racks that are over 26′ in height and 72″ in depth. The number of levels for actual storage is limited only by the height of the uprights and the distance you need between each level. Determining how much space to create for you and what type of materials to use in building your pallet rack is where our consultation process proves a value-added service that uniquely customizes your order to the exact parameters of your application.
