Businesses who lack internal storage capacity are finding warehouse providers full, or raising the rates they charge for temporary storage. As a result, many are having to optimize their existing storage spaces to host more racking, or are installing entirely new storage systems. Modular, high-density racking is best suited to this kind of storage, with the capacity to host pallets as well as smaller or more awkwardly shaped items. For some businesses, this…
