Efficient storage space utilization: As mentioned earlier, racking takes advantage of the available vertical space that is otherwise unused. Warehouses that are built to contain racks are made with high ceilings to allow racks with higher bays.
Easy inventory organization: Racks can be addressed easily in comparison to stockpiling. Storing goods with many distinct varieties is virtually impossible with stockpiling without consuming large floor spaces. A type of racking system known as selective racking allows storing different types of goods while keeping the consumed space to a minimum.
