The ROI of Smart Warehouse Storage: A Deep Dive

Warehouses are always evolving and adapting to improve efficiency or in response to changes in stock, demand, and business objectives. This means that the layout of a warehouse is never set in stone, and you are likely to need to move pallet racks at some point.

A great investment, pallet racking can increase your warehouse’s storage capacity, and improve organisation and productivity. Luckily, it is relatively easy to dismantle, move and rebuild, so you can continue to benefit from your investment for many years.

To minimise your chances of facing disruption, damage, or injury caused by moving pallet racking systems, here are some helpful tips to follow when moving pallet racks.

Before moving your pallet racking, ensure that you have planned it all out. Consider your answers to the following questions:

● Where will you store the stock whilst it is not on the racking?

● How will you move the racking to its new place?

● When will cause the least disruption?

● Who will carry out the dismantling, moving, and installation?

Once you have a well-thought-out plan, you can carry out the unloading and dismantling of the racking, ready for relocating it.

To minimise disruption and the risk of injury or damage, the whole process should ideally be carried out by the company which installed the racking, or another professional company.

However, if you wish to dismantle your pallet racking internally, be careful not to cause any damage when dismantling the racking system, and to keep all of the pieces organised to help ensure it is put back together easily and correctly.

Moving your pallet racking rather than buying a new system can save you money, but installing it incorrectly can be costly.

This is why you must hire a professional company to re-install your pallet racking, to help prevent rack failure which can result in damage, injury, and product loss.

Having your racking system professionally dismantled and installed will help to ensure that it still meets all health and safety standards and regulations in its new location.

Now is an ideal time to review your current racking system and whether you would benefit from expanding your pallet racking.

You could have a new racking system installed in conjunction with the relocation of your current racking, which may save you money compared to doing both things separately.

This will also ensure that it fits into your new plans so you do not need to move your racking again in the near future.
