Around MSP Airport and I-494, the rack layout must leave room for dock staging and turning movements before it spends the floor on storage. Cantilever Rack in Bloomington, MN starts with that constraint. If long stock cannot be supported properly in ordinary pallet bays, we compare open-front columns, bases and arms sized to the material bundles against your current arrangement. Request a free design consultation and an itemized quote before ordering the system or scheduling the move. (612) 509-6602 ## Why Bloomington Warehouses Work With Us A project near South Loop should be planned around the work happening inside that particular Bloomington building. Around MSP Airport and I-494, the rack layout must leave room for dock staging and turning movements before it spends the floor on storage. We map receiving, production and shipping access before setting storage positions. For air freight support and retail distribution operations around the airport-side I-494 corridor, cantilever rack needs to support supported long-load storage without a front beam. Measure bundle length and weight, not just the space currently occupied. Set arm length and support spacing to prevent sag, check single-sided versus double-sided loading, and leave turning clearance for the equipment carrying the longest bundle. The layout and itemized quote make those decisions visible before components are ordered. Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co. provides the storage consultation through Minneapolis Pallet Rack. You keep one point of contact for the proposed layout, scope and scheduling discussions. We review access from I-494 and the space available for unloading, and identify the work zones that must be isolated.

Air freight support Retail distribution Light assembly ## How Cantilever Rack Works Arms with nothing in front of them, built for lumber, pipe, and anything a pallet can't hold. 1 ### Columns and anchored bases Upright columns sit on bases anchored to the floor. Base depth is set by load and arm length so the run stays stable even under an off-center pick. 2 ### Arms at adjustable heights Arms bolt or pin into the column at set increments and move as your product mix changes. Straight arms suit boxed goods; inclined arms with a lip hold round or loose stock in place. 3 ### Column spacing against sag Spacing between columns is set so bundles don't sag between arms. A common starting rule places arms about half the load length apart, with the ends overhanging evenly. 4 ### Single-sided or double-sided Single-sided runs go against a wall. Double-sided runs stand in open floor and load from both faces, doubling capacity per base without doubling the footprint. ## What a Cantilever Rack Project Includes A cantilever rack project in Bloomington begins with a load and workflow review. We collect dimensions, maximum weights, SKU quantities and movement rates, then check clear height, column spacing, floor condition and forklift specifications against the proposed storage zone. We also ask how receiving, inspection and shipping share the floor so recovered positions do not simply create another congestion point. Measure bundle length and weight, not just the space currently occupied. Set arm length and support spacing to prevent sag, check single-sided versus double-sided loading, and leave turning clearance for the equipment carrying the longest bundle. The free design consultation turns these inputs into a proposed layout with storage counts, elevations and access paths. Where two systems could work, the comparison shows the storage and operating trade-offs instead of presenting a single answer without the math. The itemized scope identifies new rack components, supports, protection and installation. Our team handles the permit side for you. Manufacturer compatibility and actual capacities are checked before approval. Delivery timing and staging are discussed against available unloading space, and the installation area must be emptied and isolated from live warehouse traffic. Installation and handover follow the approved drawing. Moving parts on flow or pushback systems require travel checks with representative loads; fixed systems require their specified alignment and protection, with the rack anchored to the floor. The completed Bloomington arrangement includes the agreed capacity documentation and operating guidance. If future changes add levels, heavier loads or a new product mix, the configuration should be reviewed again rather than assuming the original ratings still apply.
