Warehouse Space Optimization
Do More with the Space you Already Have
Why Warehouse Space Optimization Matters
At Vertical Storage USA, we specialize in warehouse space optimization — helping operations reclaim 30–90% of floor area without expanding their footprint. By combining data-driven design, vertical storage systems, and high-density racking, we turn underused cube space into active, efficient storage.
Whether you’re running out of capacity or planning a new layout, our team engineers solutions that align with your workflow, safety standards, and automation goals. From Layout & Design to Automated Warehousing Solutions, every project starts with one goal: maximizing usable space and throughput.
What Space Optimization Actually Delivers
Maximize Cube
Leverage clear heights with vertical and compact systems.
Safer Access
Right-size pick faces; reduce ladder use and congestion.
Shorter Travel
Re-slot fast movers and reduce aisle miles.
Automation-Ready
Reserve footprints/utilities for VLMs, carousels, and AS/RS.
How We Reclaim Space
Right-Size Aisles & Zones
Rebalance widths, staging, and pack/ship adjacency.Slotting & Pick-Face Design
ABC velocity, golden zone, and replenishment logic.High-Density Storage
Mobile aisles, push-back/drive-in flow, cantilever for long goods.Go Vertical
VLMs, vertical/horizontal carousels, mezzanine planning.Consolidate Dead Stock
Reserve locations and slow-mover strategies.Implementation Phasing
One-aisle-at-a-time to keep operations live.Solutions that Create Space
We match systems to product size, velocity, and access needs.
Pallet Racking Systems
- Selective — 100% access for mixed SKUs
- Push-Back — LIFO, dense reserve
- Drive-In / Drive-Thru — very dense reserve
- Pallet Flow — FIFO, high throughput
Long & Bulky Storage
Small-Parts Density
Automated & Vertical
Automation Multiplies Space Gains
Designing for automation early helps convert vertical cube into usable capacity. We plan footprints, electrical, data, and software interfaces for VLMs, carousels, AS/RS, and light-directed picking—so you keep density and speed.

E-commerce & Retail
Pharma & Healthcare
Security zoning, traceability
Manufacturing & Assembly
Aerospace & Defense
Long goods & tooling control
Electronics & Small Parts
Small-parts density, ESD considerations
Cold Storage Solutions
Condensation-safe layout, air movement
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can you optimize space without buying new racking?
Often yes—re-slotting and layout changes recover capacity. When needed, we add high-density systems selectively.
How disruptive is an optimization project?
We phase work one aisle/zone at a time and schedule around peaks to keep operations live.
What data do you need from us?
Current layout, SKU dimensions, velocity (ABC), and constraints (height, columns, sprinklers, docks).
Can you integrate with our WMS/ERP?
Yes—especially for automation roadmaps and light-directed picking.
