FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) May 16, 2007 -- Auburn Hills, MI – May 16, 2007--Shelving, Inc., an Auburn Hills-based company, has been at the forefront of manufacturing and industrial shelving and storage systems for nearly 50 years. “As our customer mix grew, so did the demand for shelving systems designed for residential use. We were well positioned to bring a large offering of exclusive, customized home storage solutions to homeowners,” said Joe Schodowski, president of Shelving, Inc.

Home storage is a tremendously growing trend. Americans spent about $2 billion in 2006 on custom closets, up 20% from the prior year, according to estimates by the Association of Closet and Storage Professionals. Television shows like Mission: Organization; Small Space, Big Style; and Neat have raised awareness about the benefit of space organization.

The site’s user-friendly layout is organized by rooms and areas of a home including closets, kitchens, offices, laundry rooms, living spaces, kid’s space and garages. “Our main goal for the site is ease of navigation and giving users the ability to quickly find exactly what they need,” said Schodowski. The site offers a one-page-checkout feature that benefits customers by simplifying the checkout process.

One of the few retail outlets in the country, The Shelving Store offers a full line of elfa® customized modular storage and drawer systems. “We offer elfa® storage systems because they are designed and engineered like no other in the world -- and the functional possibilities are endless. “Our customers continually tell us how elfa® has changed their lives . . . literally, “ said Schodowski.


“There’s always an element of emotional support that we provide when selling storage solutions--just by listening to customers who feel overwhelmed by their stuff and helping them to tackle their organizational challenges. On both our web site and in our showroom we advise our customers on how to allocate and use their existing space more efficiently,” concluded Schodowski.
