Drive In Pallet Rack Systems

Drive In Pallet Racking is used for maximum space utilization. It is a first in last out ( FILO ) system and is best used with a large quantity of few products that are not time critical to best utilize space. Access aisles are kept to a minimum with drive-in rack achieving virtually double or more storage capacity. Drive In pallet rack systems can be designed to store 2 to 10 pallets deep.

Drive In rack storage is not the best for selectivity or the need to rotate inventory because you have to unload all the product in a bay to get to the last pallet. The other negative is that if you do not have enough truck loads of like product you can get a honeycomb effect by not utilizing the drive-in rack.
