The Best Solution When Your Warehouse Needs More Storage Space
As you take a walk with your warehouse foreman, he shows you just how critical your storage situation has become. You can see for yourself that there are stacks of merchandise packed into every available inch of floor space and on top of each other. It really looks as if there is not another inch of space that can be used anywhere, but perhaps with the addition of a few more pallet racks and the right shelving in Los Angeles, you can find the extra space that is needed.
Here is the real dilemma, while you look at your overcrowded warehouse you could be tempted to think that the easiest solution to the problem is to simply rent more storage space. While the addition of another warehouse location would most definitely give you the extra storage space you need and make your warehouse manager happy, this is not a very cost effective solution to an age old problem. The cost of renting another building in the LA area could pay for miles of used pallet racks that could be put to use in your current warehouse.
There is one more problem with renting an additional warehouse; you are going to have to rent one that is on the other side of the city. This means hiring more people, buying more equipment and dealing with the high cost of transferring merchandise between warehouses as well as what can turn out to be a complete logistical nightmare. When none of this points to renting another warehouse as a good move, perhaps it is time for you to sit down with your warehouse manager and take a good close look at your current system of shelving in Los Angeles and do something with it.
The real trick when it comes to storage is to make the best possible use of every square inch of warehouse space that you have. Other than the room it takes for your employees and your fork lifts to operate safely, there should not be any unused or under used space. This means putting together a system of pallet racks and shelving that allow you to do this, without the need to go out and blow your entire budget on brand new pallet racks in Los Angeles.
At the same time you are going to have to buy enough pallet racks and shelving to allow your warehouse staff to reorganize and recreate the entire storage system you are currently using in order to achieve the necessary results. If you have been looking at new pallet racks, you have probably noticed that the cost of all new racks is likely to be far outside of the money that has been budgeted towards achieving improved storage. But this does not have to be discouraging as there is another alternative available to you.
