Baltimore's Pallet Racking Experts

Yes. Baltimore Pallet Rack serves all of Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Howard County, Anne Arundel County, and Harford County — including Towson, Dundalk, Essex, Catonsville, Pikesville, Owings Mills, Timonium, Glen Burnie, Linthicum, Jessup, Columbia, Laurel, Bel Air, Aberdeen, White Marsh, and the Port of Baltimore industrial corridor. We dispatch crews and engineers locally for all installations, inspections, repairs, and relocations.

Yes. We supply new pallet racking from major manufacturers (Ridg-U-Rak, Unarco, Interlake, Mecalux, Steel King) and quality used selective racking inspected to RMI/ANSI MH16.1 standards. Used systems typically save 40–60% versus new and are available in days rather than weeks. Baltimore's active Port-driven warehouse market keeps used inventory available year-round. We also buy surplus or decommissioned rack systems for cash.

Small installations of 20–30 bays typically complete in 1–3 days. A 200+ bay system for a large Baltimore-area distribution center usually runs 1–2 weeks with a full crew. Lead time includes concrete anchor cure time, slab remediation if needed, and coordination with forklift and sprinkler trades. Most in-stock installations can be scheduled the same week you call.

Yes. We pull building, fire, and (where required) MEP permits across Maryland jurisdictions — including Baltimore City DHCD, Baltimore County Permits Approvals and Inspections, Howard County DILP, Anne Arundel County Inspections and Permits, and Harford County. Most jurisdictions require Maryland-stamped engineering drawings for racking systems above 8 feet or specified PSF loads. We prepare the full submittal package and shepherd it through plan review.

OSHA enforces racking safety under the General Duty Clause using ANSI MH16.1 (RMI) as the recognized industry standard, which calls for inspections at least annually by a qualified person. Maryland warehouses are subject to these standards through MOSH (Maryland Occupational Safety and Health). High-activity warehouses, cold storage, and facilities with prior rack damage should inspect more frequently — quarterly to monthly. Daily visual checks by warehouse staff are also recommended.
