    Propane Drums

    Safe & Secure Propane Drum Storage – Maximize Your Space!

    Storing propane drums within a dedicated warehouse storage facility offers a secure and efficient solution for businesses requiring substantial quantities of this vital fuel. Warehouses provide a stable, protected environment, minimizing the risk of damage from external elements such as rain, wind, and debris. Properly designed racking systems are crucial for maximizing space utilization and ensuring safe, easy access to drums. It’s essential to adhere to all relevant safety regulations regarding the stacking of drums – typically, a triangular stacking method is recommended for stability and to prevent tipping. Warehouse storage provides enhanced security, reducing the risk of theft and unauthorized access, and facilitates effective inventory management through tracking and readily available access. Furthermore, a warehouse’s inherent structural integrity offers a robust foundation, contributing to the long-term stability of your propane supply. Strategic location and logistical support offered by warehouse facilities streamlines distribution, ensuring timely delivery to your customers. Finally, a warehouse’s design allows for dedicated zones for receiving, storage, and dispensing, optimizing operational flow and reducing handling costs.

    Space Requirements

    • Storage Size/Dimensions
    • Minimum 100 square feet per drum. An area of 10 feet x 10 feet can accommodate up to 10 drums.
    • Height clearance: 14 feet minimum to allow for stacking.
    • Loading dock dimensions: 12 feet wide x 16 feet long.
    • Storage Conditions
    • Dry storage is essential. The area must be well-ventilated to prevent buildup of vapors. The floor should be concrete or a similar durable, non-reactive surface. Avoid direct sunlight exposure.
    • Special Handling Propane drums are considered heavy and potentially fragile. Each drum should be individually padded with foam or cardboard to prevent damage during handling. Use appropriate lifting equipment (pallet jack, forklift) to move drums.

    • Stacking/Shelving

    • Pallet storage is recommended. Utilize standard 48" high pallets for efficient storage.
    • Shelving units with adjustable racking are acceptable, but must be structurally sound and capable of supporting the weight of stacked drums. Maximum stacking height: 8 feet.
    • Access Requirements
    • Loading dock door: Minimum 10 feet wide x 9 feet high. Clearance space around loading dock: 10 feet diameter.
    • Forklift access aisle: Minimum 12 feet wide.
