Reducing response times and improving customer service

As online shopping has grown in popularity, campus mail rooms have been overwhelmed with shipments from retailers to students. Rooms that were designed to store letters and small packages now need to accommodate boxes that contain everything from clothing and electronics to appliances and furnishings.

The resulting space crunch has led to frustration for staff and students: boxes can pile up, leading to disorganization, long wait times, and concerns about valuable parcels getting lost or stolen.

After struggling with storage issues for years, staff at this university’s mail room decided they needed to make a fundamental change.

Keeping surgical instruments clean, organized, and accessible

The sterility of surgical instruments can make the difference between life and death, so nurses and other staff need to efficiently pack, store, and retrieve surgical kits in a way that keeps instruments clean and organized. At the same time, hospital space is at a premium: every foot that’s taken up with storage is space that could be dedicated to patient care.

Improving efficiency and protecting collections

This private museum’s collection includes movie props, costumes, and scale models, as well as framed posters, paintings, and first-edition books. Because the objects are delicate and vary widely in size, staff often need to construct custom housings to protect them. Staff also prefer to work as close to the objects’ storage locations as possible.

Lacking an effective workspace, the collections managers told their local Spacesaver consultant about their desire for a large, movable, all-purpose work table. They wanted compartments to store projects in progress, and they also wanted drawers for cutters, materials for making conservation mounts, and other supplies.
