Call for a layout matched to your loads and trucks." lang: en --- Image: Illustrative pallet rack aisles in a warehouse (https://savannahpalletrack.com/assets/hero-warehouse-UDtk90RH.jpg) # Pallet Rack in Metter, GA Metter's I-16 supplier storage angle calls for measured returnable-container positions and a clear route from reserve material to line-side parts. Full-unit stock and smaller picked components should not share an assumed storage pattern. Savannah Pallet Rack plans new selective racking and carton flow from the loaded container size, maximum weight and retrieval sequence. We keep receiving, reserve access and the picking task visible before settling the row arrangement. (912) 394-3242: 9123943242 ## Container reserve and line-side cartons Two automotive suppliers covering seating systems and EV or vehicle climate-control announced plants in the Candler County I-16 Industrial Park during 2023–2024. A supplier brief should identify the containers that move complete and the components that leave in smaller quantities. Selective rack can keep container families accessible, while carton flow can provide a forward pick face for repeat parts with separate replenishment access. Returnable containers may have support points unlike a conventional pallet. Supply the loaded width, depth, height, weight and handling method before beam lengths are chosen. For cartons, supply dimensions and working quantities by part family. The reserve-to-pick connection should avoid routing full-container traffic through hand-picking activity. That separation is part of the layout, not an operating instruction added after the rack is installed.

The park is roughly sixty miles from the Port of Savannah and Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport. These links explain the supplier and equipment storage angle, but they do not define the number of rack levels inside a selected building. A 42,000 square foot speculative building was filled by an equipment firm that cited port access. For a building of that scale, receiving and turn space deserve the same attention as reserve positions. We need door and column locations, actual clear height and the assigned truck. A layout that adds a row but narrows the route between receiving and the next stock zone can increase handling rather than improve usable storage. ## Capacity at the actual retrieval height Beam capacities must follow the intended container or pallet loads on each level. Frame capacity follows the complete arrangement after beam elevations are selected. The loaded reach of the forklift decides which upper locations are usable for the heavier stock. Do not count an additional level based only on the empty truck's lift height or the building's clear envelope. For supplier stock, changes in part families can alter the working container quantity. Keep direct-access positions where operators must retrieve specific components, and define any deeper reserve area by the number of compatible repeated loads. Carton flow should be evaluated from carton behavior and the desired replenishment sequence. We can compare these options in the same drawing while retaining a clear path to the dispatch or line-side supply area. ## Plan material staging before crew scheduling Hot, humid coastal Georgia summers affect installation work inside buildings without air conditioning. Agree on the material staging area, available work zones and active forklift routes before setting the installation sequence. Storm disruptions during June–November may also change access and restock needs. Keep that temporary working space distinct from the permanent rack footprint. If a Metter supplier is changing buildings, our warehouse relocation service can coordinate new storage and inventory transfers. Review the pallet rack and carton flow pages for full-container reserve and smaller-component picking, then send a measured building drawing and load details. Include maximum weights, support points, container heights and the truck specification. The consultation can address new material, beam capacities, aisle widths and work sequencing around the automotive storage task, rather than adopting a generic distribution layout that ignores the line-side replenishment connection.
