Game On: Montel’s Intelligent Sports Equipment Storage Solutions

In sports, every second, every inch, and every resource counts. Cluttered, inefficient storage isn’t just an inconvenience—it’s a hidden drain on performance, budget, and productivity.

At Montel, we’ve partnered with professional and collegiate sports teams across North America to revolutionize the way equipment is stored, accessed, and managed. Our high-density mobile storage solutions maximize space, protect investments, and streamline operations so teams can stay focused on what truly matters—winning.

Now, it’s time for your team to experience the Montel advantage with customized mobile storage solutions

Wasted Space: The Hidden Drain on Storage Capacity

When it comes to storage space, every inch counts—especially when you’re managing sports equipment like shoulder pads, hockey sticks, or football balls.

• Outdated Storage Systems: Traditional static storage wastes space by requiring fixed aisles for each unit, making it inefficient for high-density storage needs.
• Lack of Flexibility: Bulky equipment doesn’t fit well in traditional storage systems with limited adjustability. Montel’s adjustable shelving makes it easy to store items of all shapes and sizes.
• Scattered Storage Challenges: Spreading equipment across multiple locations due to space constraints complicates inventory management, making it harder to keep track of items.

For example, when the Las Vegas Golden Knights needed a solution to manage their equipment between City National Arena and T-Mobile Arena, we implemented two Mobilex mobile storage systems, allowing them to efficiently organize equipment across both sites while maintaining a unified system.

Lost Time: How Disorganized Storage Slows Down Operations

Time is critical for sports equipment managers, especially during practice and game days. Managing laundry, repairing damaged gear, and ensuring inventory readiness is tough enough without clutter getting in the way.

• Efficient Inventory Tracking: A well-organized storage system ensures that you can quickly find what you need, from clean jerseys to sharpened skates.
• Faster Access for Players: The less time players spend waiting for their gear, the more time they can spend on practice, recovery, or study time.

When we worked with Florida Atlantic University Owls, we installed a mechanical-assist Mobilex storage system that maximized their space with custom in-shelf organizational hardware. This made it easier for them to keep everything in its place, ensuring no surprises when it was time to hit the field.

Equipment Loss or Damage: How Better Storage Saves Your Budget

Every team has a budget, and lost or damaged equipment can quickly add up. The cost of gear for a college football player can exceed $1,200 per player—and professional teams likely invest even more.

• Enhanced Security: Montel’s mobile storage systems offer lockable compartments, helping to reduce the risk of theft.

• Customizable Solutions: Our solutions, like the Mobilex mechanical-assist system, come with half-inch adjustable shelving and clothing racks to ensure your gear stays secure and accessible.

When we partnered with the University of Wisconsin, their equipment management team upgraded from basic cabinets to a customized Mobilex system. As Sam Wrobel, assistant equipment manager, noted, “Before Montel, many of our items were getting lost or stolen. Now, we have a system that works with us, not against us.”
