The Secret to a Successful Campus: Optimal Storage

The Secret to a Successful Campus: Optimal Storage

A campus is like a small city because it can provide almost all the resources its residents need to thrive. Housing, sustenance, healthcare, and recreation, today’s campuses have all these items covered and more. Like a city, campuses tend to grow in size and population over time, requiring them to seek out new space or repurpose their current footprint to accommodate current and future growth.

Let’s tour ten campus storage solutions and show how they can help you rise among the ranks of today’s best campuses.

10 Efficient Storage Solutions for Departments All Across Campus

1. First Stop: The Fieldhouse

For most colleges and universities, the buck starts in the athletic programs. Success on the field drives revenue and draws attention to the school and its winning tradition to prospective students. And, while this effort culminates as the championship trophy is hoisted, it all starts in the equipment room.

McMurray Stern offers functional, durable, and customizable storage and shelving systems for all types of athletic equipment. We have designed and built custom storage systems for several of the professional sports teams here in Southern California, as well as most of the major universities. Learn more.

2. Hit the Books: Campus Library Storage

Today’s campus libraries offer more than just a quiet space to read a book. Utilizing solutions that allow for collaboration and meeting areas and feature the latest technology, library spaces can be configured to fit the user’s exact needs.

McMurray Stern offers storage solutions for today’s library. So, whether you’re hosting a study group or getting more books, you’ll have the space to do so.

3. Going Off-Site: Campus Archive Collection Storage

The rise of technology and the demand for an alternative learning environment has left on-campus space at a premium. So, to preserve valuable resources that are not accessed as frequently as others, school administrators are taking these items off-campus to categorize storage facilities strategically. Learn more about our library storage solutions.

4. Flex Space Storage: Are You Flexible?

As the current floor plan won’t always fit tomorrow’s needs, campus space planners must remain flexible with their design parameters. Campus flex spaces can be adapted to fit the current use case and repurposed with little-to-no effort or funds.

5. Campus Museum Storage: Moving Forward, We Look to the Past

Not only a place for future curators to sharpen their skills, but campus museums also preserve historical items and moments occurring on and off campus while saving room for future momentous occasions. And, like all good things, these should be on display for staff, faculty, and students alike.

We support campuses of all sizes in their efforts to manage risk, boost community engagement, optimize space, and stretch limited budgets. Learn more.

6. A Quick Stop at the Lab

Never wanting to stem progress, campuses everywhere are increasing their investment in STEM-related labs and research spaces to adjust to the nearly 50% increase in students majoring in the subject over the past decade.

7. Campus Safety Check

Attaining a degree can be hard enough for students without worrying about staying safe throughout the process. Luckily, this is where the Campus Police & Safety Department comes into play.

McMurray Stern offers safe custom solutions, so you don’t have to compromise security or convenience. Learn more.

8. Checkup On Healthcare

A lot can happen when traveling from building to building, class to class, and other places on and off campus. And, while some instances may result from a simple bandage, campus healthcare professionals are equipped and prepared to handle a wide array of mental and physical health issues. Learn more.

9. A Brief Intermission For The Arts

Though a good deal of music, scripts, rulebooks, and schedules have gone digital, there’s still plenty of demand for storage space within a campus’ Performing Arts & Recreation department. With equipment ranging as widely in value as it does in size, storage solutions must be flexible and durable enough to provide continued value for participants.

10. Last Stop Keeps All In Flow

While some use all facilities on campus, all are serviced by Facilities & Maintenance teams. These professionals care for each building and its functionality, allowing staff, faculty, and students to carry on their development in the most facilitating environment possible. Our campus storage systems allow staff to fit more into warehouses and easily find and retrieve what they need to do the job.

St. Louis Public Library Case Study

When a library as famous and well-visited as the St. Louis Central Library (St. Louis, MO), a massive renovation with great care and consideration must go into the planning process. There were several challenges that needed to be addressed as the planning began. There was an absence of technology integration in the building, as well as a lack of communal spaces for patrons to use for study and collaboration. The library also needed to address several safety hazards caused by the outdated central stack area, which was constructed from a steel-framed, self-supporting structure. We helped provide storage solutions that restored, repurposed, and revived the library.

High-Density Mobile Storage

Simply put, it’s a way to store more in less space. We’re all familiar with traditional static shelves—but the challenge with static storage is that it takes up a fixed amount of space. The amount of stuff being housed in your work space or storage area keeps growing, while the square footage stays exactly the same. By mounting shelving or cabinets onto a carriage and rail system, mobile storage eliminates fixed aisles to compact your storage space. It’s a simple concept that enables you to significantly increase your storage capacity or store the same amount of items in half the footprint.

Activrac Technical Lookbook

You’re probably familiar with traditional heavy-duty storage options—static wide span shelving, pallet racking, storage containers, and bins. The challenge with static storage is that it takes up a fixed amount of space, while the number of items you need to store keeps changing.

High Yield Cannabis Grow Facility Case Study

Beyond real estate costs, cannabis growers need to control the temperature and humidity throughout grow areas. The larger the facility, the greater the expense.

In response to an urgent need to process more COVID-19 tests, a new lab was constructed in 2020 by rapidly building out 30,000 square feet of shelled space inside the existing 150,000-square-foot facility. To support all the supplies and materials required to maintain a six-fold increase in capacity, the lab needed three compact storage systems one for materials management and two for storing test kits in refrigerated rooms.

Stanford University Case Study

Stanford University has long been known for brilliant solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems in medicine, computer science, renewable energy, and a host of other disciplines. But when it came to dealing with supplies and equipment storage for their football program and their on-site sports medicine clinic, the university’s solutions were falling flat.

Notre Dame Football Equipment Room Case Study

The Football equipment room at the University of Notre Dame used to have static, wooden shelving installed in a sparse room with concrete floors. The aisles between the static shelving units were wide, originally designed to accommodate a skid and a pallet, and took up most of the floor space. “There was just so much wasted space,” said Ryan Grooms, Head Football Equipment Manager for the University of Notre Dame.

Pacific Title Case Study

A state police agency faced challenges in the critical functions of protecting evidence through the chain of custody in state-of-the-art crime laboratories, and providing secure, long-term storage for evidence and property at its headquarter’s central repository. The storage solution needed to be tailored specifically to match the agency’s process for ensuring the integrity of evidence throughout the chain of custody.
