The season of Spring represents a time of rebirth. Consequently, many of us get the urge to clean and organize our homes during this time of year. A big part of spring cleaning however is organizing your closets, garage and other storage areas. Below are a few ideas and tips to help you become successful in this endeavor.

1. Recruit a friend. You can get lots more done with the help of a friend. Clean and organize your home this weekend and do theirs the following weekend. There is nothing like teamwork!

2. Before starting the clean-up, be sure to have multiple supplies on hand. This includes hangers, garbage bags and storage containers.

3. Be prepared to get rid of unwanted or unused items. When cleaning out closets, be sure to put unwanted clothes in garbage bags as you go along.

4. Take items to Goodwill or charities immediately. As you clean, take bags to the car or truck, or move items to the garage in preparation for donation. This way you can keep track of your progress.

5. Store items that you rarely use on top shelves or in the attic.

Pallet Floor Scales: How to Choose the Right Scale for Your Needs

September 14, 2015 Leave a comment

Scales designed for warehouses and industrial facilities have a range of unique capabilities. First, floor scales – which are often called pallet scales or warehouse scales – have high capacities. Floor scales typically have weight ranges between 1,000-30,000 pounds, with most averaging about 5,000 pounds. Secondly, these scales have much larger bases, about 48 inches by 48 inches on average.

Floor Scale - Heavy Items — Floor Scale – Heavy Items

Floor scales are used in a number of different applications. In warehouses, they are used to weight pallets. In general, a scale with a limit of 5,000 pounds and a base of 4 feet by 4 feet would suffice for weighing pallets. Plus, these high-capacity scales are used for shipping – to weigh large parcels; for warehouse inventory – allowing users to weigh parts, rather than count them; and in some cases, for weighing livestock. For livestock, there is a specific type of floor scale, called an animal scale, that is typically used.

Understanding Floor Scale Load Limits

The load capacity of your scale is one of the most important determining factors to consider. Typically, loads are offered in kilograms or pounds. For example, 3,000 and 5,000 kg loads are very common for scales. This would translate to about 6,500 or 11,000 pounds. In general, pallet scales average about 5,000 pounds, while there are 30,000+ pound scales available.

Secondly, scales are often marked with load capacity, as well as an incremental figure. For example, you might see a floor scale marked as 5,000 lbs x 5 lbs. This refers to the increments that the scale measures in. Thus, when weighing an object on this scale, measurements would be delivered in 5-pound increments, starting at 5, and then 10, and then 15, up to 5,000 pounds. Increments can be very precise, as little as one-half pound or lower.

Choosing the Right Platform

Another consideration is the size of the scale’s base or platform. Pallet scales typically measure about 4 feet by 4 feet, but there are many different types available. For example, Deelat’s 5,000kg scale has a 2-meterX1.5-meter base (or about 6.5 feet by 5 feet). In general, the size of the scale that you need is determined by the application. For example, measurements are most precise if the object that is being weighed fits entirely on the scale’s platform. Standard pallets measure about 40 inches by 48 inches, and thus, a 48-inch X 48-inch (4ftX4ft) scale is often the best.

It’s also important to recognize the platform’s support system. Often, scales are built with supports that resemble I-beams that can withstand the scale’s load capacity. Scales may have legs, but these scales are typically not as sturdy as those with the I-beam supports.

Types of Scales

There are many different types of floor scales, and often, they’re differentiated by their load capacity and the size of their platforms. A few different types include:

Bench scales: These are the lowest capacity floor scale, and they’re ideal for weighing objects that are above standard scale limits but that are far below the load capacity of pallet scales. These scales have much smaller platforms, and typical load limits are about 750 pounds maximum.
Platform Scales: Platform scales are a type of floor scale. The biggest difference is that platform scales are much more portable, while floor scales are often designed to be installed in a stationary position. Platform scales also have slightly lower capacities up to about 2,500 pounds.
Livestock Scales: Animal scales are specially designed floor scales. Often, they have a caging system to keep the animal in place during weighing.
Truck/Vehicle scales: These are the highest capacity floor scale, and they are designed to accommodate vehicles. Their load capacities range up to 50,000 pounds or more.
