Pallet Racks and Warehouse Racking in Kalamazoo, MI
Kalamazoo warehouses run from new 32 ft clear bulk buildings along I-94 to 18–24 ft plants in Portage, Comstock and Battle Creek. We plan rack for both: beam levels to your clear height, aisles to your forklift, rows to your column grid.
Send a few measurements or photos and we return a CAD layout and an itemized quote at no cost. Then we deliver and install new storage racks on a schedule that keeps your docks open. Call (269) 390-9036.
Warehouse Racking Across the Kalamazoo Market
Kalamazoo sits where I-94 between Detroit and Chicago crosses US-131 between Grand Rapids and northern Indiana. Chicago and Detroit are each about two and a half hours by truck; Grand Rapids is under an hour. That puts a lot of regional distribution and manufacturing here, and a lot of very different buildings.
I-94 / Sprinkle Road Corridor
Midlink Business Park, Pavilion Commerce Park on East N Avenue, and the E. Michigan Ave / ML Ave / Business I-94 area. Multi-tenant floors in a former auto plant sit next to new 32 ft clear bulk buildings.
Racking in Comstock Township →Portage and the Airport District
S. Sprinkle Rd, Romence Rd and Portage Rd near US-131, I-94 and Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport. Pharma and med-device storage needs clean, high-SKU racking here.
Racking in Portage →West Side and Oshtemo
The 9th Street / West Main / Stadium Drive corridor near US-131 and I-94, with new campuses where rack can be planned before move-in.
Racking in Oshtemo Township →Fort Custer, Battle Creek
Auto-parts suppliers, cereal and packaged food, Foreign-Trade Zone #43 and a U.S. Customs port of entry next to W.K. Kellogg Airport.

Six systems cover nearly every warehouse in the Kalamazoo market. Most buildings use two or three of them together.
Selective Pallet Rack
Every pallet reachable from the aisle. The default for general distribution and high-SKU storage.
View Product
Pushback Rack
Two to six pallets deep from one aisle on nested carts. Last in, first out.
View Product
Pallet Flow Rack
Gravity roller lanes load from the back and pick from the front. First in, first out.
View Product
Drive-In Rack
Forklifts drive into the lane. The densest pallet storage for deep runs of one SKU.

Cantilever Rack
Open-front arms for lumber, pipe, tube, bar stock and sheet goods.

Carton Flow Rack
Wheel beds feed cases to the picker. Built for each-pick and e-commerce order lines.
View ProductMatching Pallet Racks to the Building
A 32 ft clear spec building off Sprinkle Road takes five or six beam levels and a reach-truck aisle. A legacy paper-mill building in Parchment or Plainwell may stop at fewer levels and carry columns every few bays. Same pallet, very different layout.
We start with clear height, column spacing, pallet size and weight, turns and the trucks you run. General distribution usually lands on selective pallet rack; food and 3PL density on pushback.
Cold Storage and Winter Scheduling
Dairy, packaged food and fruit processing make cold chain real here, including freezer and cooler warehouses around Paw Paw and Van Buren County. Freezer- and cooler-rated drive-in and pallet flow come up often.
Winters are long, with lake-effect snow on the west side. Docks and unheated storage get cold. We plan deliveries and installs around the weather. Moving buildings? See our warehouse relocation service.
