    Dimensions & Weight (Packaged)

    * **Storage Size/Dimensions:** Minimum 200 square feet, 20ft x 10ft area. Height clearance: 12 feet. This allows for efficient storage and maneuverability. * **Storage Conditions:** Dry storage is essential. The area must be well-ventilated to prevent mildew and maintain a stable environment. Regular inspections for debris and pests are required. * **Special Handling:** Outdoor carpet rolls are considered fragile. Each roll should be covered with protective padding (bubble wrap or moving blankets) to prevent damage during handling and storage. Pallet wrapping is recommended for palletized rolls. * **Stacking/Shelving:** Pallet storage is the most suitable method. Utilize standard 48” high pallets. Shelving is not recommended due to the bulk and weight of the carpet rolls. Stacking should be limited to a maximum of three rolls per pallet to maintain stability. * **Access Requirements:** A loading dock with a 12ft wide x 12ft deep bay is required for forklift access. The warehouse door should be a minimum of 10ft wide for easy access. A clear aisle space of 8ft is needed for equipment movement. Ensure adequate overhead clearance of at least 14ft for forklift operation.
