Secure Plastic Drum Storage: Space, Safety, & Savings.
Strategic warehouse storage offers a robust and cost-effective solution for the secure holding of plastic drums, ensuring optimal product preservation and accessibility. Utilizing a dedicated warehouse space provides significant protection from physical damage – safeguarding drums from potential impacts, stacking stresses, and accidental movement during handling. Careful consideration of drum placement within the warehouse is paramount; utilize designated racking systems or pallet locations to maximize space and prevent damage. Proper stacking practices, adhering to weight limits and drum specifications, are essential for structural integrity and safe operation. Warehouse environments, with their inherent organization and access control, contribute to enhanced inventory management and traceability – critical for supply chain efficiency. Furthermore, a warehouse's larger footprint allows for bulk storage, reducing handling frequency and overall operational costs. Selecting a warehouse with experienced personnel and established procedures further guarantees the safe and organized storage of your plastic drums, optimizing your logistics and protecting your valuable inventory. This approach provides a secure and practical solution for long-term storage needs.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 200 sq ft for a small operation, 500 sq ft for a medium-sized operation. Ideal area dimensions: 20ft x 10ft or 10ft x 10ft per drum. Height clearance: 12 feet is recommended for efficient stacking.
Storage Conditions: Dry storage is essential. The area must be well-ventilated to prevent dust accumulation and potential material degradation. The floor should be level and capable of supporting the weight of stacked drums. Avoid direct sunlight exposure.
Special Handling: Plastic drums are generally durable, but some may be fragile. Palletizing is recommended to minimize direct contact with the floor. Consider using protective padding, such as cardboard or foam, for drums that are particularly sensitive to abrasion or impact.
Stacking/Shelving: Pallet storage is the most common and efficient method. Drums can be stacked 3-4 high depending on the drum size and load-bearing capacity. Adjustable shelving units can also be utilized to maximize vertical space. Ensure shelving is robust enough to handle the weight.
Access Requirements: A loading dock with a minimum width of 12 feet is required for truck access. The warehouse door should be at least 9 feet wide for easy maneuverability. A clearance space of 8 feet around each storage area is necessary for forklift operation. A minimum of 10ft x 10ft aisle space is recommended between rows of drums.
