Handling technical equipment requires skill, experience and the right infrastructure. Our warehousing teams are trained in specialist equipment handling and follow carefully planned processes to minimise risk. Each task is assessed in advance, the correct handling equipment is used, and all tools and systems are regularly maintained and checked to ensure the highest standards of safety and care.
As part of the wider technical equipment transport process, secure storage plays a vital role. Our strategically located warehouses provide protected environments where goods can be safely stored prior to delivery, collected by engineers, or held temporarily to support phased installations or project scheduling. This flexibility helps customers maintain smooth operations and better control over their logistics.
Relay’s depots collectively provide more than 100,000 square feet of specialist technical storage space. These facilities are supported by experienced warehousing personnel and purpose designed handling equipment, all focused on reducing the risk of damage to fragile or high value customer assets. Our storage solutions are built around precision, control and accountability.
Technical equipment storage facilities include:
- Strategically located warehouse sites across the UK
- Climate controlled hi-tech warehousing
- Computerised stock control systems
- Stock rotation and pick and pack services
- Dedicated engineer testing and training areas
- Controlled storage environments to support efficient business logistics
