Adjustable shelving units are recommended to maximize space utilization. Pallet storage is acceptable with appropriate protection underneath. * **Access Requirements**: The loading dock should be at least 12ft wide and 10ft deep to accommodate forklift access. The warehouse door should be a minimum of 9ft wide for easy access. A clearance space of 8ft x 8ft is required adjacent to the shelving for forklift maneuvering.
