How to Choose a Warehouse in Jaipur: A Checklist
By ATTPL Fleet · · 2 min read
Checklist for choosing a warehouse in Jaipur: location and access, size and racking, safety and fire NOC, security, WMS, costs and GST registration.
Location and access
Choose a location close to your customers or suppliers with easy highway access and permitted truck movement. Check road width and turning space for large vehicles.
Size and layout
- Clear height for racking
- Floor strength for your load
- Loading docks or levellers
- Space for future growth
Safety and compliance
Check fire safety systems and NOC, electrical safety, drainage and any approvals required for the building. If you store goods in another place, add it to your GST registration as an additional place of business.
Security and systems
Look for CCTV, guards, access control and insurance. A warehouse management system (WMS) gives accurate stock and faster picking.
Costs
Compare rent per square foot with handling charges, utilities, security and insurance. The cheapest rent is not always the lowest total cost.
