Horizontal Carousel Storage System
If your warehouse specializes in or requires solutions for sortation applications, high-speed automated picking, or parts delivery, our horizontal carousel storage system might be the solution best suited for your needs. Different from the vertical storage solutions that Vertical Storage USA offers, our horizontal storage solutions are geared toward a warehouse in need of high-speed, highly automated inventory delivery. Built with construction-grade steel and high-capacity buckets, our horizontal carousel storage system is built to last while providing an efficient solution to your inventory-picking needs.
Horizontal carousels are also not limited as their name would suggest. We can also integrate a second, mezzanine level in order to operate with one carousel on top of the other, thus maximizing total warehouse space.
Vertical Storage USA also offers the option of purchasing the most state-of-the-art, new automated warehouse storage equipment, older models, and used horizontal carousel storage systems – including Kardex horizontal carousels and Remstar horizontal carousels – or a combination of the two in order to meet your storage and budgetary requirements. At Vertical Storage USA we specialize in providing customized storage solutions to you and your warehouse business.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is a horizontal carousel?
A horizontal carousel is an automated storage system that rotates bins along a track to bring items directly to the operator. Models like the Kardex horizontal carousel and Remstar horizontal carousel are ideal for fast-pick applications and low-ceiling warehouses.
When is a horizontal carousel better than a VLM?
A horizontal carousel is better than a VLM when ceiling height is limited or when operations require high-speed picking. They excel in fast-moving environments like kitting and order fulfillment, where throughput and quick access matter more than vertical space savings.
How much does a horizontal carousel cost?
The cost of a horizontal carousel depends on factors like size, number of carriers, and automation options, but used systems can be a budget-friendly alternative to new units. Many companies choose Kardex horizontal carousels or Remstar horizontal carousels for their reliability and long service life, whether purchased new or pre-owned.
