Warehousing in today’s competitive logistics and retail markets isn’t a matter of square footage, it’s a matter of efficiency. Using the right shelving system, you can maximize storage space, better organize your space, boost employee productivity, and lower your bottom line.
Rightway Shelving specializes in assisting companies from every industry in maximizing underutilized warehouses with high-functioning areas with personalized shelving systems.
Why Shelving Matters in Warehouse Optimization:
Having the proper shelving system directly impacts how efficiently products are stored, retrieved, and counted. Lacking one exposes you to:

- Slowing picking and restocking
- Creating safety hazards
- Adding labor cost
Investing in high-quality warehouse shelving allows you to make the most of every available space.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- What shelving system is ideal for maximizing the use of vertical space in the warehouse?
Mezzanine shelving and pallet racking systems are both great options when you need to maximize your warehouse’s vertical space. Both systems enable you to continue product up, and this can enable you to add a lot of storage without enlarging your building.
- How do I determine which shelving system I need for my warehouse?
The appropriate shelving system relies on numerous issues such as the nature of the product you are to store, weight requirements, utilization frequency, and available ceiling and floor space. Right Way Shelving is free to consult on your layout to enable you to get the best solution for your warehouse.
- Will shelving systems accommodate irregular-shaped products?
Yes. For long or heavy goods like pipes, steel, and wood, cantilever shelves are quite helpful. We also have custom shelving options that are tailored around your product size, inventory flow, and operational requirements.
