How Push Back Racking Systems Work in Columbia Warehouses
Our push back racking system operates on a simple yet ingenious principle: gravity-assisted wheeled carts
- Loading Process: Insert the first pallet onto a cart at the front bay. As you add subsequent pallets, each new one pushes the previous carts deeper into the rack lanes—up to 6-10 pallets deep per lane.
- Cart Design: Heavy-duty steel carts with nylon or steel wheels roll smoothly on inclined rails, ensuring even weight distribution and minimal friction.
- Retrieval Process: When unloading, remove the front pallet, and gravity pulls the next cart forward automatically. No manual pushing required, reducing labor and forklift time.
- Safety Features: Built-in stops, load dividers, and optional sensors prevent cart runaway, supporting heavy duty loads.
This LIFO flow makes pushback pallet racking ideal for fast-moving SKUs where access to the newest stock is key.

90% more storage than standard selective racks
