Cases sit on inclined wheel beds, so every time a picker takes one, the next slides forward to the exact same spot - no reaching, no re-facing product, no walking to find the case that should be there. Restocking happens from a separate back aisle, so replenishment never interrupts the pick line. It's the right system when picking is by the case or the each, not the pallet, and when enough SKUs need a dedicated face that static shelving turns into a maintenance problem. Most warehouses run it in the lower levels of a bay with reserve pallets stacked above, so one footprint handles both active picking and overflow storage. We size wheel beds and lane widths to your case dimensions, pick rate, and SKU count, and show where the fastest movers should sit in the bay. (813) 723-3771 ## Why Tampa Warehouses Work With Us Tampa Pallet Racks is a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co. We start with the storage decision, not a list of steel. Your inventory profile, handling equipment, and available space tell us whether carton flow rack belongs in the layout. A free consultation gives your team a chance to compare the system with other rack types before choosing a direction. From East Tampa and Adamo Drive to facilities serving Port Tampa Bay, receiving and dispatch space matter as much as the number of storage positions. We account for columns, usable height, staging, and forklift travel in the CAD drawing. The itemized quote explains what the rack includes and lets you compare storage capacity against the space left for daily work. Delivery and installation planning follow the approved layout and your operating schedule. Ask us to review future additions at the same time, so a new lane or row has a planned place rather than taking over a working aisle. ## How Carton Flow Rack Works 1 ### Inclined wheel beds A full-width wheel bed or roller track sits on a slight incline inside a standard bay, so cases move forward under their own weight without power. 2 ### Pick from a fixed position The picker always reaches for the same forward spot in the lane. Travel time drops, and so does the time spent searching for the next case. 3 ### Restock from behind Replenishment loads the high end of the lane from a separate aisle, so restocking never blocks or slows the pick line, and rotation stays first in, first out automatically. 4 ### One lane per SKU Lane dividers set the width for each case size, giving every SKU its own face - a width that can be resized as your product mix shifts.

Those numbers decide wheel bed style, lane width, and how much face each SKU is worth giving up. From there we lay out the bay - how many flow levels, at what incline, and what sits above them. In most designs, the fastest movers get the golden zone at waist height, slower SKUs move to the upper or lower levels, and reserve pallets stack overhead in the same footprint. The quote itemizes frames, beams, wheel bed or track, lane dividers, front stops, and shelf-level accessories, with the layout showing lane assignments by SKU. Installation sets the incline, tests case travel with your actual cartons, and adjusts before the line goes live. The payoff is a pick line where cases present themselves, restocking stays out of the way, and lane widths can be reset whenever SKUs come and go. 1 Phone consultation 2 CAD layout 3 Itemized quote 4 Delivery & installation ## Recent Pallet Rack Projects A look at recent pallet rack installations across the Tampa Bay area.
