Used Store Shelving & Display Racks

What kind of used store shelving do you sell?
We sell double sided and single-sided used store shelves. Double-sided gondola shelving is also known as aisle shelving because it is mostly used to create shopping aisles in the middle of the store. However, because ALL used store shelving displays measure a standard 48” across, a double-sided unit can work very well as a stand along display in the front of the store. Single-sided shelves, also used as end caps I in many stores, are very easy to fit into gaps along the wall and tight corners where larger display shelving cannot fit.

If my displays are dark, shouldn't I buy new light fixtures first?
No. Upgrading light fixtures is going to cost too much money. Instead, spend a portion of your budget on used store shelves that will allow you to adjust the height and width of each horizontal support. Because each shelf on a display rack can support 350 pounds without bending or buckling in the middle, you can move shelves around to let more light onto key products. Also, you can vary the depth of each individual shelf between 12” and 22”, allowing for light to “cascade” throughout the display from top to bottom and spread illumination over your entire product inventory.

What sizes and colors do you have in used store shelving?
All of our used retail store shelves are available in a wide range of colors. We have white, beige, gray, black, and off-white, just to name a few. Our most popular color is almond, due to its “low profile” neutrality that make it a perfect background for so many different product types.

What heights do used store shelves come in?
They measure between 48” to 84”. We recommend that you carefully study your own floor plan before you arbitrarily buy the tallest store shelf available. Instead, use the internal adjustability to get more out of the space within the shelf, and keep the exterior size of the storage shelf as small as possible. The more easily you can see over the tops of shelves, the easier it becomes to spread honesty around your store along with holiday cheer.

How do I know what types of used shelving displays to buy and also know how to arrange them in my store?
Ask your Easy Rack specialist about space management planning. If you are serious about considering our wholesale used display fixtures, then we are happy to suggest upgrades and improvements to your layout. Simply give us a blueprint of your floor plan, or take some photos and send them to our team. We can show you how to use store shelving in a “less is more” way that will minimize purchase costs and maximize long-term return on investment.

Gondola Shelves and Shelving

How important is gondola shelving to merchandising?
It can be the key to your merchandising success. Proper positioning of your shelving in conjunction with proper lighting helps you better display your best products and showcase your hottest items on sales.

Investing now in new gondola shelves can get your store ready for the Christmas season and give you a winning competitive edge over other stores in your area. The key to doing this right is to work with a space planning expert like your account manager at Easy Rack. A professional who is knowledgeable in retail layouts can show you how to do more with your existing space than you may think currently possible, and how to combine different types of gondola retail shelves to create more effective layouts and displays.

How many different types of gondola shelves are there?
There are many different heights and shelving depths, but really only two category types of gondola shelves. The first is double sided gondola shelving, also known as aisle shelving, which runs vertically through your floor plan and creates aisles for shoppers to walk through.

The other type of used gondola shelving is single-sided wall shelving, which also has a very useful dual function as an end-cap shelf if you want to bring certain items on special into a central position of prominence for people walking in through the main entrance.

Can these shelves be customized?
The individual shelves themselves are units of a fixed horizontal and vertical size and a variable shelf depth. However, the combinations you can create with these individual display shelf units are endless. Easy Rack will help you customize any order to maximize your exact space management requirements. Simple gives us some floor plans or digital photos of your store and we will get started today.

People steal from me a lot. What type of gondola shelves do you have that can help me?
You need units that will allow your managers, employees, and security equipment to see over into the aisle beyond and monitor customer activity. We have found that the best shelving heights are 72” if you do not have cameras and possibly 84” if you have mirrors on the corner ceilings and surveillance cameras in key locations. Anything higher than this creates blind spots that are too tempting for some people to remain honest.

Do you have any gondola shelving that comes in decorative colors?
Yes. We have a wide range of colors which complement the general decorative layouts of the full gamut of retailer types. We have almond, black, caramel, beige, light beige, and gray, just to name a few.

How large are the individual shelves themselves?
They can be as short as 12” and as long as 22”. Generally, most shelves support an average weight capacity of approximately 350 lbs.

Used Display Shelving Racks

What types of used display shelves do you carry?
There are two main categories of display shelving. There is a double-sided shelf, also known as aisle shelving or used gondola shelving, which is arranged in rows with shelves extending outward on either side. The other type of display shelving is one-sided, or wall shelving. This type of display shelf is used to turn empty wall space into merchandising space. It is most valuable to small pawn shops, convenience stores, local hardware stores, small drug stores, and records stores because it makes the most of every square inch and places important merchandise on eye level with browsing shoppers.

What colors can I buy used display shelving in?
You can buy used display shelving in any number of colors, including gray, almond, black, caramel, light beige, and beige. The most popular color is almond, but this is solely a matter of subjective preference.

What sizes are available?
Display shelving ranges in vertical height from 48” to 84”. We recommend that you use purchase used display shelves standing no more 84” high. This gives you plenty of room to stock your products and still leaves you with enough room to look over the tops of the shelving for loss prevention monitoring.

What horizontal widths are available?
We sell all used display shelves built to a standard 48” width. This provides a common measurement around which to build a space management plan.

How much weight can these shelves hold?
An individual shelves can typically hold 350lbs in weight. Multiple shelves can be adjusted to create a “staggering” of depth from top to bottom. This lets more light shine onto lower shelves and prevents shadows from obscuring your products.

What are the most important benefits we can expect?
With the right combination of aisle and wall shelving, you can use display shelves in virtually any open space in your store. Easy Rack will help you customize a merchandising floor plan that will make the most of your empty walls and unused square footage on the ground. Just send your account manager any of pictures or blueprints of your store. We will help you plan out your new display setup and fill in the products based on the best application we can develop for your location.

Heavy Duty Industrial Pallet Racks

Industrial used pallet racks allow you to support the largest containers and pieces of equipment. Unlike other types of racking systems, industrial used pallet racks have steel decks instead of wire decks. This is because they support the heaviest of materials and need to be able to support up to 48,000 pounds in weight safely.

Industrial used pallet racking are vital ingredients for recession-proofing your company. The most important benefit they bring to you is the exponential expansion of your existing warehouse space. This is especially advantageous if you are storing very heavy equipment storage. You may be using your warehouse floor to store the most bulky and heavy of items simply because the concrete provides the most reliable support. Industrial used pallet racks and pallet racking give you an equivalent and much more efficient alternative. Their heavy-duty steel decking provides a sturdy, elevated platform that is easy to access and safe for employees to work around. This will really improve your inventory control and your time to market as well. With faster access to materials stored on used industrial pallet racks, your workers can store and retrieve items much more quickly and efficiently. If they get in a hurry, donʼt worry. The structural steel components these racks are made from make them highly resistant to occasional forklift impacts, so you can count on the unit If things get really busy and crews get in a bit of a hurry, industrial used pallet racks are built to withstand an occasional bump from a forklift during a busy time.

You can find industrial pallet racks in all designs, including the most popular design, the boltless teardrop style. The boltless design offers two main advantages over bolted equivalents: ease of assembly and a more even distribution of weight. In spite of steel plating and structural steel supports, you can assemble your warehouse rack yourself by snapping the components together without clips, bolts, or tools. The finished product is much more stable and durable because it has no small components that can buckle or pop under the stress of heavy loads.

Even though industrial used pallet racks and racking are easy to assemble, we recommend you get help from a material handling specialist in designing the storage systemʼs specifications. Every new or used pallet storage rack system (and most used pallet racks as well) are custom designed storage units that are intended to fit the exact dimensions of a warehouse floor, vertical cube, industry type, and storage content. These factors play a very critical role in determining the strength of the components we will later use to build your rack, so be sure to share this information with the specialist that is designing your system.

Industrial pallet warehouse racks systems can also be made for outdoor use in inclement weather and cold climates. If you have a remote construction site or shipping yard with heavy duty storage needs, talk to a material handling specialist at Easy Rack and we will design a system specifically for that location.

Pallet Racks & Pallet Racking

We have considered freezing procurement due to possible global economic collapse. It is a good thing to be cautious, but reacting to the extreme on fear only makes the situation worse. Rather than freezing your budget, consider making one or two purchases that have intrinsic return on investment build into the purchase order.

Ok then, what types of purchases do you recommend?
If you can only make a single material handling purchase this quarter, buy a pallet racking system. Everything about a used pallet rack is designed for efficiency and process flow and in most cases eliminates the need to expand a warehouse or move into a larger facility at great expense.

How do pallet racks prevent the need to expand or move?
They convert floor space and vertical cube space into an organized storage area that can be accessed by workers and fork trucks. We cannot stress enough to our clients how important it is to avoid using floor space for storage that presents a hazard to workers and an obstacle to equipment. Getting stored materials off the floor and onto a pallet racking system will improve your safety rating and make it possible to manage your inventory more efficiently and accurately. When you know exactly what you have, where it is, and how to find, you can much more easily manage your books and avoid double purchasing and over purchasing supplies, components, and materials.

Should all inventories be kept on pallet racks?
We recommend you try to do this if at all possible. Not only can you control inventory better this way, but you can keep it in much better condition when you store it off the floor in a neat and organized manner. You will receive a return on this investment over time in the form of reduced replacement costs and shortened time involved in finding and retrieving materials. In this sense, a pallet rack is a time clockʼs best friend.

Do you custom build any pallet racks?
Yes. We custom build them all. There is nothing generic about our warehouse racking systems. Every new or used industrial racking system is a custom system build to meet the specific needs of our client. Used pallet racking will often save a company up to 40% and can be custom built from components we have access to through nationwide procurement channels. New pallet racks are also custom built.

What do we have to do to order a used or new pallet rack?
Call Easy Rack and provide your material handling account manager as much information about your industry, company, and warehouse as possible. Send blueprints or floor plans if you have them, and provide us with data such as square footage, ceiling height, the industry you work in, the type of materials you will be storing, and a general estimate of the size and weight of pallets can containers you will place on your racking. A knowledgeable heavy duty used pallet racking specialist will be gals to design a system for you.

We will use this information to do all the calculations for you and build you a system with the best support structure and weight capacitance for your unique storage system needs.

Used Pallet Racking

Used pallet racking saves companies as much as 40% of the purchase cost of new equivalents. Used pallet racking by Easy Rack is available in all standard types, sizes, and styles on a nationwide basis. Pallet racking systems can also be custom designed with the assistance of an Easy Rack material handling specialist. They can be built to match interior warehousing conditions, terrain, specific climate, and the seismic environment of a particular region of the country.

What is the best design for used pallet racking?
The "best" design is often determined by the application and is therefore hard to point to as an absolute standard. The industry standard for most applications is used pallet racking in teardrop design.

Used teardrop pallet racks are made using a boltless design that makes assembly and adjustment easier. This also keeps the platform more stable and prevents it from buckling in the middle. Teardrop used pallet racking is braced with heavy channel steel and is supported by tensile steel columns that keep the entire structure immobile and therefore more stable when storing a large amount of weight.

What type of pallet racking should be used in heavy fork truck traffic areas?
In these areas, we recommend you install heavy-duty, industrial used pallet racking that can handle weight capacities of 48,000 lbs and are built to withstand occasional fork truck collisions.

What is the best type of decking to use?
That depends on the application. Steel decks are recommended for the most heavy-duty industrial storage provided they comply with fire codes. In medium and light duty storage, wire decks are generally preferred because of fire control issues. If the sprinkler system in a warehouse or factory is triggered, water can flow between the mesh of the wire without being stopped by a solid platform.

What is the difference between custom warehouse pallet racking and custom structural pallet racking?
Used warehouse pallet racking systems are built to organize and store materials that anticipate future expansion. These systems are designed so they can be adapted and added onto as the size and storage needs of a facility increases.

Used Structural Heavy Duty Pallet Racking is made for impact resistance in high traffic areas. Easy Rack builds structural upright systems in a variety of well-known, standard styles such as Inca, Sturdibilt, Steel King, Frazier, Arco, and Speedrack.

If you are uncertain which type of used pallet racking, supports, system style, or deck you require for your organization, it is best to have a custom system built to the exact specifications of your storage facility, the parameters of your operations, and the changes anticipated due to forecasted growth. If you provide your Easy Rack specialist with this information, we can perform all the necessary calculations to build your system to safely maximize your storage space and improve your inventory control.

Shelving Racks & Rack Shelves

Rack Shelving transforms floor space, walls, and large sections of the vertical cube into organized storage space. Shelving racks are made from the highest commercial grade steel and can be obtained in any size or industrial strength. New and used models ban be ordered in open backed shelf racks, closed back racks, or wide span units. Shelving racks are often connected together either side by side or one on top of the other. It is not unusual to find several open backed units connected side by side and used to store paperwork and company files. Closed backed shelving systems can be linked together one on top of the other in a “box shelving” configuration that can hold up to 2,000 pounds of weight.

The strength and longevity of Easy Rack shelving is unmatched in the material handling industry. Each unit, regardless of build or weight capacity, is coated with two layers of protection prior to being drop shipped to its destination. The first protective layer is a coating of iron phosphate that prevents oxidation from salt air and airborne industrial pollutants. The second protective layer is baked enamel painted onto the steel racking that helps reduce dents and warping during use and accidental impacts.

The commercial grade steel used in the manufacture of our rack systems ranks as the highest in the industry. Because bay doors and loading docks of many facilities are often open to the outdoors—and therefore exposed to extremes in heat and cold in many parts of the country—Easy Rack commercial shelving systems are reinforced with the highest commercial grade metal protectors to make sure your material storage units withstand the elements over the course of many years of use and extended exposure to climate variations.

Two of our most popular and versatile rack shelving options are industrial metal warehouse shelves and long span and wide-span warehouse shelving, also known as Rivet Rack Shelves.

Industrial Rack Warehouse Shelving
Warehouse storage shelving racks are frequently stacked on top of each other and bolted together to create boxed shelving systems. Such systems can easily hold up to 2,000 pounds of material.

Warehouse shelves can be bought as in either open-backed units or close-back units. Open-back shelf systems give employees convenient access to materials from all four sides. Closed back units act like cabinets that can either be stood against the wall or shut tight and locked up after hours.

Long-Span Shelving Racks
Long span used commercial shelving racks are designed to stand to the side of a room or warehouse and convert horizontal and vertical wall space into storage shelving. These wide span units can be linked end-to end to cover the entire wall of a large facility, or they can be used as stand-alone units behind counters in retail service centers, parts stores, and hardware stores.

Wide span shelving is made from 24-gauge steel shelving supported by steel beams built around a two-piece design. This increases the shelving rack’s center of gravity and allows it to evenly distribute loads that weigh up to 35,000 pounds.

Easy Rack carries a wide variety of custom made shelving, commercial shelving, material handling equipment, commercial lighting, used pallet racks, and modular prefab buildings installed nationwide.

Pallet Rack Removal Specialists, Forklift Pallet Attachments & Material Handling Ergonomic Pallet Moving Equipment

It is a good idea to outsource your pallet rack removal if you are moving to a new facility. Because almost everything your will be receiving in your new location arrives on pallets, having the correct fork lift attachments and other ergonomic pallet trucks on the day you open the doors of your new facility will prevent you from missing a step in your receiving cycle. Professional and reliable pallet rack removal by Easy Rack will safeguard the efficiency of your operations and ensure the safe storage of materials on heavy duty racking systems you can count on to be ready for use the day you move in.

Easy Rack recommends you outsource used pallet rack removal to us simply because the task is not as simple as it looks at face value. Modern warehouses feature much more complex designs than the old shell buildings of decades past, and the proper removal, relocation, and setup of your pallet rack shelving requires an expert who can assess the dimensions of your new facility, estimate the most efficient use of your new floor plan, and take all relevant safety requirements fully into account.

Professional pallet rack removal ensures not only human safety, but also the safety of your racks, materials, and supplies. Because these pallet storage units hold up hundreds and thousands of pounds of weight (and sometimes weigh quite a bit themselves), it takes trained professionals to properly remove stored components, disassemble your pallet racks, and remove them without damage or incident.

While it might be possible for some companies to handle their own pallet rack installation and removal safely, it is almost impossible to get it done quickly without losing time and money in the process.

By outsourcing your pallet rack removal to an Easy Rack specialist, your company will minimize the risk of catastrophic accident in your storage areas, and it will also maximize your chances that your pallet racks will be moved and re-installed in optimal shape and working condition.

Our professional pallet rack installers will not only install your systems, but they will test them for strength and integrity to make certain they are ready for use before you open the doors of your dock.

We do this for any client, anywhere in the nation. Each pallet rack and new facility is unique, so pallet rack removal is implemented on a case-by-case basis with careful attention being paid to critical details such as heat stress levels in the new facility, securing the units to the cement floor, and any necessary bracing to offset seismic activity in your area.

Let me tell you about Easy Rack ships and installs a wide variety of commercial shelving, material-handling equipment, commercial warehouse lighting, used pallet racks, Parking Lot Lighting Fixtures, Athletic Sports Lighting Equipment, Commercial Grade Christmas Lights, Tennis Court Lighting and modular prefab buildings installed nationwide.

Used Commercial Shelving, Industrial Widespan & Open Back Storage Shelves at Discount Prices from Easy Rack.

What benefits can we obtain from buying used commercial shelving?
Used commercial shelving offers the immediate, tangible benefit of savings that total 20% on the average in comparison to new equipment procurement costs. Pricing can be even lower based upon current availability.

Buying a used commercial industrial shelving system at a discount can offset the temptation to purchase new, but cheaper grade materials, which will generally not hold up in the long run. This offers you the best in manufacturing quality at a used-savings discount that eliminates the need to cut corners on quality.

What sizes and models are available in your inventory?
Easy Rack’s inventory offers models with weight capacities ranging from 450 pounds up to 2,000 pounds. We have open-backed units, close-backed units, and Widespan commercial shelving systems available in all gauges, sizes, and strengths.

What are the best uses for open-back units?
Generally, open back commercial shelves are used for storing lighter materials in warehouses and offices. Weight capacities for our many models range between 450-500 lbs. Open-back commercial shelves are excellent tools for conserving horizontal space because they tend to be taller than they are wide.

What is the difference between open-backed shelving systems and Widespan systems?
Widespans are a form of open-backed commercial shelving that are longer than they are tall.
For heavier storage capacities, or for environments where horizontal space conservation is less of an issue, you might want to consider using Widespan shelving. Based on open-backed design, Widespan industrial steel shelving normally feature wood-decked shelves reinforced by metal supports and support weight capacities of up to 2,000 lbs. The heavy-duty models are ideal storing equipment and heavy containers in warehouses.

Lighter-gauge Widespan shelving provides excellent document storage space in office environments. They also make excellent storage areas for hardcopy data and larger items such as bankers’ boxes.

You will also see Widespans used a great deal in auto repair shops behind service counters. Their extended horizontal space provides a large storage area without encroaching on walkway areas behind the counter.

How are closed-back units mostly used?
Closed back commercial shelving units are often used like cabinets because their backs and sides provide additional support and added stability. They can be folded together to protect sensitive materials such as chemicals and certain forms of paint.

Both lighter and heavier gauge closed back commercial shelves can be used for systematic component storage. Separators inserted into the shelves can create bin areas where small parts can be stored neatly and separately to make inventory more accurate and efficient.

What are some other benefits that Easy Rack can provide?
One of the primary advantages Easy Rack offers beyond face value cost savings is in-depth consultation and planning services to serious callers. Due to the wide range of used commercial storage racks we can access, we do not expect our clients to come to the table with dimensions, gauges, and material builds fixed firmly in mind.

We take responsibility to get to know your business and the many details of your product and data storage requirements. Our nationwide reach, extensive manufacturing, used warehouse stotage racks, acquisition, distribution, and installation network allows us to match model to need by asking key questions in an efficient, timely manner.

We frequently locate surpluses of certain types of material handling equipment and can arrange for even more of a discount. We also plan and oversee onsite installation on a nationwide basis. Our home office is located in Houston, Texas with material handling distribution channels located in all 50 States including New York NY, Los Angles CA, Miami, FL. Chicago, IL. Denver CO., Dallas TX, Beaumont, TX. and El Paso, TX.
