What it is
An autonomous mobile robot hauls material — pallets, totes, carts — across a facility on its own, navigating around people and obstacles without fixed tracks. Service Robot Co. rents the robot, deploys it on your floor, services it, and keeps a backup ready, across all 50 US states — so you add throughput without a capital purchase.
An autonomous mobile robot (AMR) moves material across a facility on its own. Unlike a fixed conveyor or a tracked AGV, it navigates your existing aisles, routes around people and obstacles, and adapts as the floor changes — no rails to install. Warehouses, manufacturers, and 3PLs use AMRs to haul totes between pick faces, move pallets to the dock, and carry work-in-progress down a line.
Service Robot Co. owns the whole lifecycle. We pick the AMR that fits your workflow, deploy it and set up its routes, train your team, and keep it serviced — with a backup ready if one goes down. You rent throughput, not a robotics integration project. Renting also lets you scale up for a peak season and scale back after, without a fleet of idle hardware on the books.
Field notes
Freight volume keeps growing. The people to move it do not.
4.6M
The projected US supply-chain worker shortfall by 2030. The aisle work has to go somewhere, and it is going to wheels.

$10B
The AMR market crosses ten billion dollars by 2030, with roughly half a million robots shipping a year by then.

15.6%
Annual growth in AMR adoption through 2030. Warehouses are not debating whether to automate transport, only how fast.

What it does
Everything the unit does, in plain terms.
No spec-sheet fog. This is the job the robot takes off your team.
Warehouse cross-dockHauls material on its own
Moves totes, carts, and pallets between pick faces, packing, and dock doors so people stop walking loads across the floor.
Line-side feedNo fixed tracks or floor changes
Navigates your existing aisles and routes around people and obstacles — no rails to install, no operation to shut down.
Cross-dockScales with your season
Add units for a peak and hand them back after. Renting keeps idle hardware off the books in the slow months.
Cold storagePredictable monthly cost
Rent it by the month instead of buying. The service and the backup unit are on us, so a breakdown is not a stalled line.

Where you'll see it working.
How we back it
We don't hand you a box and wave.
We rent it, deploy it, service it, and back it up, so the robot stays field-ready instead of turning into shelfware.
We rent it
Take the robot on a monthly rental. No purchase, no capital tied up in a machine you use part-time.
We deploy it
On-site setup, route and task configuration, and a walkthrough, so the robot earns its keep from day one.
We service it
Repairs, parts, and support across all 50 US states. A robot that breaks is our problem to fix, not your downtime to eat.
We back it up
If a unit goes down, we swap it. You keep your schedule and we carry the spare.
