Keep Your Butternut Squash Fresh & Protected - Warehouse Storage!
Butternut squash, with its rich flavor and versatility, benefits immensely from secure and organized warehouse storage. Utilizing a warehouse facility offers optimal protection for your valuable product, safeguarding it from potential damage during handling and transit. The spacious environment allows for efficient stacking and rotation, ensuring that the freshest stock is always readily available for shipment. Proper storage involves placing squash in a cool, dry area, ideally on pallets to promote airflow and prevent bruising. Regular inspections are crucial to identify and address any issues like blemishes or soft spots, minimizing waste. Warehouses provide a secure location, reducing the risk of theft and damage compared to smaller storage solutions. The structured environment facilitates easy inventory management and streamlines the distribution process. Long-term storage within a warehouse maximizes shelf life, allowing you to capitalize on the squash’s extended usability – a significant advantage for your business. Finally, warehouse storage offers reliable accessibility and supports your supply chain needs.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 150 square feet, with dimensions of 12ft x 12ft. Height clearance: 9 feet. This allows for stacking and efficient storage.
Storage Conditions: The storage area must be dry and well-ventilated. Avoid direct sunlight exposure to minimize potential discoloration. Ensure the floor is level and clean to prevent damage to the squash.
Special Handling: Butternut squash are relatively delicate. Each squash should be wrapped in protective padding, such as bubble wrap or cardboard, to prevent bruising during handling and storage. Palletize squash in layers of no more than 3-4 to reduce pressure.
Stacking/Shelving: Utilize pallet racking to store the squash. Pallets should be 48” x 40” to accommodate standard pallet sizes. Shelving units with adjustable heights are recommended for flexibility. Maximum stack height of 4 pallets is advised.
Access Requirements: A standard 10ft wide loading dock is required for truck access. The dock door should be at least 10ft wide with a clear opening of 8ft. A minimum of 10ft of clearance space around each pallet is needed for forklift operation. Ensure adequate aisle space for movement.
