Material Handling Equipment Services in Petersburg, VA
Material handling equipment selection in Petersburg, VA is driven by building clear height and aisle width. Older I-85 and Crater Road industrial buildings with 20-24 ft clear are reach-truck buildings — standard 2 or 3-stage masts on 102-108 inch aisles. Newer I-95 Petersburg corridor buildings with 26-32 ft clear support 4-stage reach trucks at 28-32 ft lift height and higher-capacity counterbalanced forklifts.
Rack aisle width, beam height, and column capacity must all match the lift truck spec before the first upright goes in. We design Petersburg, VA rack systems around your equipment from the start.
