One of the first things to do when you have identified a warehouse suitable for your storage needs is to assess how that space is used for optimum efficiency. <\/p>\n
To do this you will need a storage professional to help you not only help plan how the space will be used but also increase the profitability of your warehouse. Of course a lot about planning your space will depend on the kinds of products you will be storing and how much traffic is likely to be entering and exiting the building. <\/p>\n
When it comes to the pallets themselves there are three important areas to keep think about: <\/p>\n
The size of products <\/strong> The number of pallets <\/strong> The size of your pallets <\/strong> There are of course plenty of other factors to consider including the rent per sq ft and so on but the above should help get you started.

\nThe ideal use of space is to store your products according to their common sizes although this may not always be possible. The focus either way should be to keep the fastest moving products nearest the exit door so that productivity can be maximised. <\/p>\n
\nWhen calculating how many pallets you need to fill the available rack space you should also allow for growth in stock levels over time. <\/p>\n
\nIt is important to allow some clearance around your pallets rather than have them tightly packed together. A forklift truck should have enough room to pick a pallet out of each slot without risking damage to surrounding products.<\/p>\n
