We sell and supply the full range of pallet racking and warehouse storage in Akron, then design, engineer, and install it. One bay or a whole warehouse layout, plus permit drawings, relocation, and 24-hour emergency rack repair across Akron, OH.
Akron warehouses rack everything: polymer resins, tire stock, and the e-commerce SKUs moving through the I-76/I-77 fulfillment corridor. Valley Industrial Trucks designs storage for all of it from our own facility at 1620 East Market Street. Selective rack remains the workhorse; pallet flow and carton flow serve the food and consumer-goods operations; push-back and drive-in add density where Summit County floor space is expensive; and mezzanines put slow SKUs overhead. We measure the building, engineer the layout with stamped drawings for Akron and Summit County permits, install with certified crews, and answer rack-damage calls 24 hours a day.
Every system has a sweet spot. We match the design to your density, selectivity, and rotation needs in Akron.
The workhorse of warehouse storage, with direct access to every pallet. Roll-formed (teardrop) and structural bolted styles for any capacity. Best all-around for mixed SKUs.
Learn more →High-density storage where forklifts drive into the bay. Drive-in for LIFO, drive-thru for FIFO. Maximizes cube when you store many pallets of few SKUs.
Learn more →Cart-and-rail systems storing 2–6 pallets deep per level with LIFO rotation. High density with far better selectivity than drive-in.
Learn more →Gravity roller lanes for true FIFO rotation: load one side, pick the other. Ideal for high-throughput and date-sensitive product.
Learn more →Gravity flow shelving for piece and case picking, with dense, organized pick faces that speed order fulfillment and cut walk time.
Learn more →Arm-style racking for long and awkward loads: lumber, pipe, steel, and extrusions. The storage match for sideloader operations.
Learn more →Free-standing structural mezzanines and work platforms that add a second level of usable space without expanding your footprint.
Learn more →Wire decking, row spacers, column protectors, guard rail, rack netting, and pallet supports to complete and protect the system.
Learn more →A forklift strike to an upright doesn't just dent steel. It compromises the rated capacity of the whole bay and puts everything above it at risk. Valley runs 24-hour emergency pallet rack repair across Akron, OH: engineered column repair kits, front-column and sub-frame replacement, load-beam repair, and cooler/freezer engineer stamps. We restore rated capacity instead of leaving you to gamble on damaged steel.
