An apparatus and related method for stocking bulky loads (P) comprising: a storage shelving (2) comprising at least one storage corridor (20) extending in the longitudinal horizontal direction that is divided into two series (22, 23) of support compartments (21), each of which extends itself as a free corridor for the entire longitudinal size and it is adapted for autonomously supporting a row of loads (P); and a lifting means (3) movable on the ground adapted for moving in the longitudinal direction along said storage corridor (20), which comprises a support means (31) which extends vertically, having a relatively small transversal size, which carries engagement means (32), transversally arranged on either side with respect to the support means (31), in order to lift/lower at least preferably two loads at a time, said support means (31) is adapted to pass in an intermediate lane (24) which separates the two series (22, 23) of support compartments (21) and the lifting means (3) is adapted to move the loads (P) to slide in the longitudinal direction inside said support compartments (21), and to release them thereon, apart with respect to the loads (P) located on the opposite series of compartments (21) so as to leave said intermediate lane (24) free. The lifting means (3) is movable on the ground through moving wheels (34), of which at least one steering wheel and at least one motor-driven wheel and its said engagement means (32) comprise two support forks whose teeth are directed in the longitudinal direction, each of which is adapted for carrying a load (P). |
