3-Car Garage Safety: Clear Aisles and Chemical Storage

In the world of industrial supply chains, safety is not a suggestion; it lole religion.

In the world of supply chain logistics, we have a golden rule regarding warehouse design: “Build the facility around the inventory, not the inventory around the facility.” If you are a warehouse manager, you don’t build a rack system and then hope your pallets fit.

You buy a boat, you need a workshop, or you simply get tired of the afternoon sun baking the side of your truck. This is where the Boxed-Eave Metal Carport […]

Carport Awning for RVs: Height, Clearance, and UV Protection

In the supply chain world, we distinguish between “Static Inventory” (boxes on a shelf) and “Rolling Inventory” (trucks, forklifts, and fleet vehicles). Your Recreational Vehicle (RV) is the ultimate piece of Rolling Inventory. Whether it’s a Class A Motorcoach, a 5th Wheel, or a Travel Trailer, it represents a massive capital investment—often the second largest […]
