Rack Inspection in Minnesota

Rack inspection is a systematic assessment of your pallet rack's structural condition. A qualified inspector walks every aisle, checks every visible upright, beam, and connection for damage, overloading, and code compliance, and delivers a report with findings and recommended actions. RMI recommends annual professional inspections. Your insurance carrier may require them. Minneapolis-St. Paul is a major regional distribution hub for the Upper Midwest and Northern Plains. Target's headquarters (and its massive supply chain operation) is based here. The state's warehouse market serves a wide geographic area with limited alternatives — there's not another major hub until you reach Chicago or Denver.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should rack be inspected?
RMI recommends a professional inspection at least once per year. High-traffic facilities (frequent forklift damage, heavy loads, multi-shift operations) should consider twice per year. In between professional inspections, trained warehouse staff should conduct monthly or quarterly walk-through checks and report damage immediately.
Who is qualified to inspect rack?
A qualified rack inspector has training in ANSI MH16.1 standards, understands load capacity calculations, and can identify structural damage that affects safety. RMI offers a rack inspection training program. Some inspectors are licensed professional engineers (PEs), which adds credibility and allows them to stamp repair recommendations. Not every building inspector has rack-specific expertise — ask about their training and experience.
What happens when damage is found?
The inspector categorizes each finding by severity. Red (critical) items should be unloaded immediately and repaired or replaced before reloading. Yellow items need repair on a defined timeline (typically 30-90 days). Green items are monitored at the next inspection. The inspection report gives you a prioritized action list so you can allocate repair budget where it matters most.
