Q: What is a standard size box and why do you only store that size?


A: Standard box size is the common measurement for the industry and it is approximately 1 cubic foot, usually with dimensions of 12" wide by 15" long and 10" high. Our rack system is designed to fit only this size of box. Each of these boxes weighs an average of 30 to 40 lbs. Boxes that are any larger than standard pose a risk of injury to our warehouse employees. For safety and economy, we only accept standard size boxes for storage. ARSC can handle any reboxing that you may need.

 
Q: What is "dynamic filing" and what are the advantages of it?

A: Dynamic filing means that when a storage box is refiled, the software is capable of allowing the box to be stored in any open location. The current refile location is automatically updated in the computer. Other systems require the box to be returned to the same location from which it was pulled. If not, the software will not be able to find it the next time it is requested. This can cause the box to be "lost" within the warehouse. Our system prevents this from happening.


 
Q: What about the confidentially of my files?
 
A: All of our employees are bonded and sign a confidentiality agreement as a condition of employment. No one understands your concern for security of information better than ARSC!
