Benefits of Shelving

Adding commercial shelving to your facility can bring a variety
of benefits. Here are some of the biggest advantages:

Efficient Space Utilization

Shelving systems maximize vertical space, allowing businesses to store more items within a smaller footprint. This efficient use of space is crucial for businesses operating in limited areas.

Improved Organization

Warehouse shelving promotes systematic and organized storage, ensuring items are neatly arranged, categorized, and labeled. This organization minimizes search time, reduces errors, and enhances overall productivity.

Enhanced Inventory Management

The right system provides a structured framework for inventory storage, making it easier to track and monitor stock levels. This helps businesses like yours implement accurate inventory management practices, prevent stockouts or overstocking, and reduce carrying costs.

Quick and Easy Access

With items readily available on shelves, employees can quickly retrieve what they need, streamlining order fulfillment processes and improving operational efficiency.

Customizable Configurations

Our products offer flexibility and customization options to meet specific business requirements. With a variety of available types (e.g., adjustable, steel, wire, or mobile shelving), businesses can create a shelving solution tailored to accommodate different item dimensions, weights, and workflows.

Enhanced Safety

Choosing the Right Type of Industrial Shelving

Consider several factors when searching for the right industrial shelving. First, think about aisle spacing and the width, depth, and weight of what you'll store.

We stock and sell several types of used industrial shelves, including steel shelving (clip, nut, and bolt and similar styles, all with adjustable shelves), backroom and stockroom shelving (Lozier and similar brands), rivet shelving (also called “rivet rack”), bulk rack shelving, used wire shelving units, and more.

We can even customize our used inventory to match your unique application and needs. If, for example, we have 8′ steel shelving and you need the same exact type but in 6′ and you can't find it anywhere, we can professionally cut down the shelving uprights to fit your specifications.

Ask for a professional consultation to ensure you get what you need.

FAQs About Shelving

What Kinds of Used Shelving Are Most Popular?

Steel shelving is the most common type of shelving you can find on the market for both warehouse and industrial environments. Boltless shelving, like rivet shelving, comes in at a close second — offering an easy-to-assemble alternative to steel shelving without the need for clips or bolts.

How Do I Know Which Shelving System I Need?

Assessing your space and how you’ll use your shelving is a great first step before making any purchases. Steel shelving, for instance, is robust and offers versatility, but bolts or clips can add time to installation and open shelving requires metal sway bracing on one side of each unit. In contrast, boltless shelving systems provide just as much durability and the option for open configurations.

What Are Some Common Shelving Sizes?

Usually, shelving will come in depths of around 16” to 36”, and widths of 36” to 96” — the average width being around 42”. When it comes to height, expect to find standard measurements of 6’ to 10’. One of our best-selling and most common sizes is 24" x 48" x 10' to 12'. Keep in mind that East Coast Storage Equipment does offer custom shelving sizes for exact specifications and needs.

How Much Weight Will Industrial Shelving Hold?

Weight capacity measurements will depend on the manufacturer and specific equipment type.

What Are Some Shelving Safety Guidelines?

While safe use of shelving will vary from product to product, you’ll generally find a few general guidelines to follow. First, we don’t recommend erecting free-standing shelving units over 15’ in height. Another guideline to keep in mind is proper load storage. Always try to keep heavier loads on the lower or middle shelves and lighter items on upper shelves.

What Is the Best Material for Shelving?

Commercial shelving comes in many variations and materials. The type that is best for you will depend on your situation and needs. For instance, backroom shelving usually incorporates particle board or plywood shelves. If you're looking for strength, source shelving made from durable steel.
