Push Back Racking Or Pallet Shuttle Systems? How To Choose

Choosing the Right Storage System

Efficient warehouse storage solutions have always been at the forefront of supply chain optimization. With increasing demands for faster fulfillment and limited warehouse space, choosing the right high-density storage system is critical.

Push Back Racking

Push back racking uses a system of nested carts on inclined rails, allowing storage of 2-6 pallets deep with LIFO inventory management.

Pallet Shuttle Systems

  • Store 20+ pallets deep
  • Both FIFO and LIFO options available
  • Clear path to full automation
  • Lower maintenance than push back systems

Our Recommendation

For operations with fewer SKUs and higher volume per SKU, pallet shuttle typically offers better ROI and future-proofing.
