If you live, work, or spend a significant amount of time in a region that’s on top of or near a fault line, you’ve probably witnessed firsthand the kind of damage that earthquakes can do.
Just last month, a 6.0 quake hit Napa, California, injuring hundreds and causing millions of dollars in damage to homes and businesses. The region’s famous wineries were hit particularly hard, with estimated damages jumping up to over $80 million.
For businesses with warehouses in quake-susceptible regions, preparing for an earthquake isn’t just a good way to prevent losses; it can also save the lives of your employees or customers. Continue reading

A few months ago, we did a post on the stupidest things ever done with a forklift.
It was an amazing piece, full of haunting imagery and biting criticisms, but it lacked one very critical element: video.
So this time, we’re going to change it up a little bit and do a play-by-play of a few videos of warehouse accidents and see if can’t learn a thing or two (which we might, but really we’re just here to watch people do stupid stuff). Continue reading

This certainly isn’t the first time that we’ve shared a neat pallet creation, but it’s definitely the first time that we’ve shared something this intricate.
When you think of things that you can make out of pallets what do you think of? Maybe a chair, or a small house, or some kind of sculpture. You know, all the stuff you see on Pinterest.
Will Matthysen of Warrandyte, Victoria, Australia thinks of clocks.
And not just a clock. A fully functional clock.
The project was a part of an annual event known as the Create From A Crate Competition, and yes, it was enough to earn the Australian clock maker the grand prize.
Check out the above video to see the process.
So I guess we’ve found another project that wooden pallets are great for. For all of your warehouse needs, there are plastic pallets from One Way Solutions.

Like all industries, the warehouse and logistic industry is moving into the future with a full head of steam. Companies across the country and the world are implementing a variety of new technologies in an effort to become safer, faster, and more cost effective.
One of these technologies is the automated guided vehicle, or AGV. As the name implies, an AGV is able to drive itself without human assistance, usually guided either by using pre programmed routes/floor plans, lasers, or some combination of the two.
So yes, it’s like a self-driving car combined with a forklift.
But can this new technology make an impact on your business right now? Or is the technology still a few years away from being viable? Continue reading

While watching HBO’s The Leftovers this past Sunday, I started thinking of what would affect me significantly if it one day just poofed and disappeared.
The answer was simple. The answer was pallets. And even though the answer was simple, the implications of how pallets would affect the world if they just vanished wouldn’t be.
Grant it, it wouldn’t be enough to fill an HBO drama (True Pallet Detective, anyone?), but the effects would be sprawling nonetheless. Continue reading

We previously published an article where we described some…”alternative” uses for wooden pallets.
But thanks to Slovakian artist Tomas Moravec, we now realize that we’re like Jon Snow when it comes to awesome pallet hacks.
Moravec noticed that a Europallet just happens to fit perfectly across the tram tracks that run through Bratislava, Slovakia. So he did what anyone would do upon making that discovery.
He put freaking wheels on a pallet and rode it down the street.
Never in any of our lives did we think that someone could look so majestic while standing on top of a pallet.
By the way, if you want to make your day a million times better, watch this gif while listening to this song.
