Ensure proper storage and shipping by adhering to size and weight limits. Minimum 150 sq ft (10ft x 15ft) with 12ft clearance. Use dry, well-ventilated spaces to prevent rust.

Strip metal must be wrapped in protective padding (bubble wrap or cardboard) to prevent scratches. Use sturdy pallets and interlocking shelving for secure stacking. Avoid direct sunlight and water exposure.

Secure metal coils with metal-strapped bundles and protective wrapping. Ensure pallets are stable and regularly inspected for damage. Maintain clear aisles (8ft) for forklift access.

Request loading docks (12ft wide) and dock doors (10ft wide) for efficient unloading. Plan for overhead cranes or forklifts to handle heavy loads.

Freight costs depend on weight (up to 5,000 lbs), distance, and handling requirements. Secure storage facilities with climate control and security features may increase expenses.
