Warehouse Layout and Design

Increase Productivity - We are experienced warehouse-planning professionals!

Let MHE design your company a custom warehouse layout.

Warehouse Layout and Productivity

Warehouse productivity is a function of the warehouse layout, so it makes sense to spend time on warehouse design to improve material flow and warehouse logistics. Warehouse layout design takes more skill and expertise than doing other floor plans and layouts because it requires a deep understanding of warehouse processes, the capabilities of material-handling equipment, space requirements, and the load-bearing capabilities and best uses of specific rack styles. Modern warehouse design is not a simple project, which is a good reason to work with a professional team with experience in warehouse planning.

Material Handling Exchange has a full crew of experienced warehouse-planning professionals with in-depth knowledge of the most efficient pallet racking to use for various loads. We know the best ways to lay out a warehouse for optimum productivity and efficiency. Unlike most pallet racking providers, we don’t just create a single design based on the racks in stock. We take the time to do a thorough job on your warehouse building design using the best pallet racking systems for the material you actually store and the material-handling equipment you actually use. You get to choose the best customized warehouse layout for your needs from the several warehouse layout options we will design just for you. There are no “cookie cutter” layouts when you work with Material Handling Exchange.

Material Differences

We have more inventory and more types of new and used pallet racking than our competitors. We also have our own manufacturing facilities, so we can make whatever type of racks make the most sense for you, rather than try to force-fit the design to available inventory like some of our competitors do. Because we offer more than 50 years of warehouse design expertise, you know you are getting the best possible warehouse designs as well.

In warehousing, using space efficiently is critical, so we strive to take advantage of every square foot and all possible vertical space in your warehouse design. After we have created multiple warehouse layout designs for you, we help you decide which one makes the most sense for your business. We go over the pros and cons of every detail, so you know exactly how the warehouse logistics will flow. We are familiar with current industry best practices, so you know you are getting a modern warehouse design that will serve your company efficiently for years to come. We’ve seen it all in warehouse management, and we are adept at servicing customers with unique needs in their warehouse layout. In fact, we are happy to take on complex or difficult projects that our competitors frequently turn down.

Let’s Get Started

Who better to design a warehouse than a company that knows and sells warehouse storage equipment? We are happy to use our 50 years of expertise in the creation of your warehouse layout.

A drawing of your existing space — as simple as a hand sketch — is all we need to get started. Contact us today to work with the very best modern warehouse design professionals.

Mike

"We have been outfitting a new 14,000 sqft warehouse with new racking. We worked with MHE a couple years ago and had great experience with getting everything specced out and rated for our needs. We had to get racks custom made for the specific work we do. Their prices were very competitive. We went back and ordered another quantity from them last year. We will likely be ordering more from them in the future. The only issue we had was the delivery. The trucking company they used didn’t brace everything and some of the racking fell off the pallets in the truck. It took us several hours to partially hand-unload a full 53 foot trailer. That was the trucking company though. MHE was great."

Erich

Hats off to Brad Cross and his crew there."

Joey

"Gleaners Food Bank recently contracted with MHE to install racking in our cooler rooms and Material Handling Exchange was great to work with. They were very responsive to our needs and gave us very reasonable pricing. The install team that came to our facility was outstanding; they worked safely and cleaned the work areas meticulously once the work was completed.

We will absolutely use Material Handling Exchange for future projects in our DC."

Neil M. Underhill

"I had MHE design and build cantilever rack for our cabinet manufacturing company. the sales person I worked with was knowledgable of how our business works and knew exactly what we needed. This order was a custom build due to the limited ceiling height we have to work with in out plant. when we received our cantilever order we built and loaded it with lumber. everthing works great."

John

"Hands down the best company for racking I have worked with in my 15+ years. The racking is clean,safe,strong and easy to put up fast. I would also say that the sales team is right there if anything comes up with the job. All my questions where answered quick and they made sure to go over every detail to ensure I got the correct racking for my application. My company is located in North Carolina and there was no problems with shipping and was fast to get to us."

Todd Sigler

"Starting at the beginning of this year I have been dealing with Mr. Horwitz. He has been very helpful and accomodating to our needs here at Newegg. He is very knowledgeable and prompt when offering quotations. Once orders are in the process the rest of his team communicates at a very professional level. We’ve ordered from them several times already this year and will continue to do so in the future."

Todd Herman

"We’ve done business a handful of times with MHE. It’s always a problem-free experience. Whether we’re picking up a small order from their warehouse directly or having them ship an order to our shop, the order is always accurate. Prompt shipments. Good quality used stock. New stock is fairly priced. Their sales staff is always personable and checks over orders to make sure you didn’t overlook anything. We have no reason to buy from anyone else."

Michael Bartoli

"Excellent products."
