    Dimensions & Weight (Packaged)

    - **Storage Size/Dimensions:** Minimum 200 square feet, ideally 20ft x 10ft area. Height clearance: 12 feet to allow for stacking. Consider a dedicated area of 300 sq ft for future expansion. - **Storage Conditions:** The storage space must be dry and well-ventilated. Good airflow is crucial to prevent mildew and dust accumulation. The floor should be level and clean. - **Special Handling:** Single yarn is generally durable, but it’s considered a fragile item. All yarn rolls should be wrapped in protective padding (bubble wrap or cardboard) to prevent snags and damage during handling. Pallets should be used to minimize direct contact with the floor. - **Stacking/Shelving:** Utilize pallet racking systems with adjustable shelving. Maximum stacking height should be 4 pallets high, ensuring stability. Shelves should be designed to accommodate roll sizes (typically 12-24 inches diameter). - **Access Requirements:** A standard 12ft wide loading dock is required for truck access. The door should be a minimum of 10ft wide for easy maneuverability. A clearance of 8ft is needed alongside the loading dock for forklift operation. Ensure adequate aisle space of at least 8ft between storage racks.
