APICS Certified in Logistics, Transportation and Distribution (CLTD) — Question 39

A corporation is redesigning its warehouse and has decided to use a rack system that allows each level to be accesses individually by placing pallets on wheeled frames. The rack system that best meets this criteria is:

Answer options

• A. flow-through
• B. push-back
• C. drive-in
• D. double-deep

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, drive-in, as it allows for pallets to be placed on wheeled frames, facilitating individual access to each level. Options A (flow-through) and B (push-back) do not support individual level access as efficiently, while D (double-deep) is designed for maximizing storage density rather than individual access.
