Stone siding requires storage areas of at least 200 sq ft with 10ft height clearance. Pallets must be reinforced, and panels should be individually wrapped with bubble wrap or cardboard.

Store stone siding in dry, well-ventilated spaces with level floors. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading. Secure stacked pallets with straps and use 48”-deep racking for stability.

Panels must be individually padded to prevent chipping. Pallets should support heavy loads and include anti-slip materials. Loading docks require 12ft width for trucks and 8ft aisles for forklifts.

Ensure warehouse security measures are in place to protect against theft. Use reinforced pallets and secure storage to minimize damage risks during handling and transit.

Storage costs depend on space requirements, security measures, and palletization efficiency. Larger quantities may reduce per-unit costs, while specialized handling increases expenses.
