Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between a commercial warehouse and an industrial warehouse?

While there is crossover between the two, a commercial warehouse is used for a large variety of business related activities, whether that be the storage of components, parts, materials for manufacturing, or finished goods. This can be for industries such as food and beverage, medical, and consumer goods. In contrast, while industrial warehousing may include some of those same things, it is more focused on storing industrial products used in manufacturing, production, and fabrication. Murphy Logistics offers secure space for both types of warehousing needs.

What are some key factors to consider when choosing a commercial warehouse?

Choosing the right commercial warehouse depends on your needs. Consider vital factors like location (proximity to your customers or suppliers), square footage required, specific features (loading docks, temperature control, rail access), and security measures offered. Murphy Logistics excels in these areas as industrial and commercial warehousing experts.

How can Murphy Logistics help me optimize my industrial warehouse process?

Our commercial warehousing experts at Murphy Logistics can analyze your inventory and recommend space optimization strategies. This could involve implementing vertical storage solutions, utilizing zoning techniques, or employing automated picking systems. We regularly perform these duties for our clients, helping them to save money, maximize their investment, and ensure the highest quality ROI in their logistics efforts.

What safety features should I look for in an industrial warehouse?

Industrial warehouses should prioritize safety for personnel and inventory. Murphy Logistics ensures features like proper ventilation for hazardous materials storage, designated fire exits, and clear signage for safety protocols. We also ensure a distinct and clear separation between industrial and commercial warehousing.

Does Murphy Logistics offer value-added services in their warehouses?

Absolutely! Beyond commercial warehousing and storage, Murphy Logistics provides value-added services like cross-docking (direct transfer of goods), light assembly, kitting (combining multiple items), and packaging solutions to streamline your commercial or industrial warehouse operations.
