Secure Metal Scrap Storage: Save Space, Maximize Value.
Storing metal scrap within a robust warehouse storage facility offers a secure and efficient solution for businesses managing their material needs. Warehouses are specifically designed to handle bulk quantities and heavy materials, providing a stable and protected environment for your scrap metal. Strategic racking systems maximize vertical space, optimizing your storage capacity and improving accessibility for retrieval. Careful consideration should be given to palletization and stacking methods to ensure stability and prevent damage during handling. Segregation by metal type – such as steel, aluminum, or copper – is crucial for accurate inventory management and potential resale value. A well-organized warehouse also protects your scrap from potential weather exposure, minimizing the risk of rust or corrosion. Warehouse storage provides a dedicated, secure space to safeguard your valuable metal inventory, streamlining operations and offering a reliable long-term storage solution for your metal scrap needs. Regular inventory audits and proper labeling further enhance operational efficiency and ensure traceability.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 200 square feet, ideally 20ft x 10ft, with a height clearance of 12 feet. Consider a dedicated area of 300 sq ft for increased flexibility.
Storage Conditions: The area must be dry and well-ventilated. Ensure good airflow to prevent dust accumulation. The floor should be level and capable of supporting heavy loads.
Special Handling: Metal scrap can be sharp. Personnel should wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including gloves and safety glasses. Items requiring padding should be wrapped securely to prevent damage during handling and movement. Avoid dropping items from significant heights.
Stacking/Shelving: Pallet storage is recommended, utilizing standard 48” high pallets. Light-duty shelving units with adjustable shelves could be incorporated for smaller pieces, but stacking should not exceed 4 pallets high for safety.
Access Requirements: A loading dock with a minimum width of 12 feet is required. The dock door should be at least 10 feet wide with a clear opening of 9 feet. A minimum of 10 feet of clearance space around the loading dock is necessary for maneuvering forklifts and trailers. Ensure adequate aisle space for forklift operation, at least 12ft wide.
