Chard mobile shelving moves, handled end to end
A high-density system is a piece of mechanical equipment, not a set of bookcases. Get the re-levelling wrong by a few millimetres over a long track run and the carriages bind โ which is why re-installation, not dismantling, is where experience actually shows.
We've rebuilt systems of every make and vintage throughout Somerset, and we finish each Chard job with a PUWER inspection so you have documented evidence the equipment is safe to put back into service. One team surveys, dismantles, transports and reinstalls โ no handovers, no subcontractor gaps.

Chard and the Blackdown Hills โ manufacturing storage moves
Chard's manufacturing base on the Millfield and Furnham estates uses mobile shelving for components, tooling and quality records rather than archives, and those systems are heavier and dirtier than an office equivalent. Bearings pack with abrasive dust over years of use, so we plan for bearing cleaning or replacement at reinstall rather than forcing worn carriages back onto new track.
Rural approach lanes into the Blackdown Hills restrict vehicle size, and several units have step-up loading docks that do not match standard tail-lift heights. We resolve both at survey. Production shutdown windows are short here, so we work to a fixed sequence and hand back a tested, PUWER-inspected system ready to load.
