Pallet racking in Claymont, DE
Claymont sits at Delaware's northernmost point on the I-95 corridor, positioned directly on the Delaware-Pennsylvania state line where the Northeast Extension connects Philadelphia and its suburbs to the I-95 East Coast freight spine. The Darley Road and Philadelphia Pike industrial corridors in Claymont host a mix of distribution, light manufacturing, and logistics operations that benefit from being the first Delaware exit off I-95 from Pennsylvania. Warehouse stock is predominantly older 1950s-to-1980s industrial buildings running 20-to-26-foot-clear, with some newer industrial development along the Route 13 frontage. New Castle County Land Use handles permitting for Claymont-area projects.
At Delaware's I-95 north gateway and the Pennsylvania cross-border corridor, permits route through the New Castle County Department of Land Use with plan reviews typically running three to four weeks.

Claymont questions
01 What rack systems work best for older Claymont industrial buildings?
Claymont's predominantly older industrial stock (20-to-26-foot clear) is best served by standard selective racking at 18-to-24-foot with shorter runs and carton-flow pick faces for piece-pick operations. Double-deep selective on perimeter walls maximizes pallet positions in the narrower bay footprints common in this corridor. Used rack is often the most cost-effective path for these buildings.
02 What is the permit process for rack in Claymont, DE?
Claymont falls under New Castle County Land Use jurisdiction. Permits require stamped engineering drawings above threshold height. Plan review typically runs three to four weeks. Fire high-piled storage review runs concurrently for commodity above 12 feet.
03 Do you serve operations right on the Delaware-Pennsylvania state line?
Yes. We serve Claymont and the border area between Delaware and Pennsylvania, including facilities that straddle the state line. We handle permitting in both New Castle County, DE and Delaware County/Chester County, PA jurisdictions as required for cross-border industrial projects.
