Services
Selective Pallet Racking
Our selective pallet racking systems provide direct access to every pallet location while maximizing warehouse efficiency. This cost-effective solution supports various forklift operations and accommodates diverse inventory requirements. Designed for high SKU diversity, our systems ensure optimal space utilization while maintaining easy inventory access.
Push Back Racking
Push back racking systems offer increased storage density through LIFO inventory rotation. Our engineered solutions reduce aisle space requirements while maintaining accessibility to multiple product lines. The gravity-assisted design improves replenishment efficiency and warehouse space utilization for high-volume operations.
Carton Flow Systems
Our carton flow systems implement FIFO inventory management for efficient case picking operations. The gravity-fed design increases picking rates while reducing operator travel time. Customizable lane widths and optional accessories optimize picking accuracy for mixed-case fulfillment environments.
Cantilever Racking
Cantilever racking solutions specialize in storing long, bulky materials with varying dimensions. Our systems maximize vertical space while protecting inventory from ground damage. Available in single- or double-sided configurations, these racks accommodate specialized storage requirements for construction materials and industrial components.

UMH has been awesome to work with. They created a racking plan that made the most out of the available space in a new building, handled the permitting process with the city and FD, installed the racking and stuck with us all the way through to final inspection. On top of it all, the price for all of this was amazing. We definitely couldn't have moved into our new building on time without them.

I have continued to trust and rely on UMH for rack and other material handling needs because they deliver on what they promise. Whether it's a $10K job or a $1M job, I haven't been let down. Yes, there will be issues but the real question is whether the integrator you've chosen comes forward with solutions to address concerns. Thank you Trevor and Ryan for continuing to support me and the organizations that have counted on us to help them grow.

Over the years, UMH has become a trusted partner for many of our warehouse construction needs. We first started working with them in 2016 on our warehouse expansion in California and had since collaborated on numerous projects across the country which included 2 full buildouts in Texas and Arizona. All of these projects ran on tight budgets and aggressive schedules, and UMH was fully dedicated to provide all their expertise and resources to make them successful. They are dependent and reliable, and their project management skills are top notch. UMH President, Ryan Bartlett, truly understands what

Mike Graham and Felix Rodriguez made the impossible, possible! We are greatly appreciated for their hard work and for making things happen on a very tight timeline and surprisingly at a very reasonable cost. I would definitely reach out to UMH - United Material Handling first for any future racking projects. Thank you to all of the UMH Team, we appreciate you all.

We have tried several pallet rack suppliers in SoCal before we met with Ryan at United Material Handling. I was pleasantly surprised with how fast their turn around time was for quote, delivery and installation. They supplied us with the Ultraracks and we were very happy with the quality, pricing and customer service.
