About Stack Racks
Stack racks allow you to efficiently vertically stack items, which can optimize floor space while ensuring product safety. This highly versatile storage rack equipment is especially beneficial for irregularly shaped items that can’t easily be palletized. Furthermore, they’re designed with mobility in mind, making it easy to rearrange stack rack configurations to accommodate changes in your facility’s layout.
Manufacturers construct stack racks with a base and four posts. This allows them to securely stack together in columns without placing weight on the products below. This design also allows for easy access to each rack, whether it’s at the base or the top, simplifying inventory management and helping create straightforward systems for product rotation.
Benefits of Stack Racks
Adding stack racks to your warehouse or production facility can offer
your team many benefits. Some of these advantages include:
Efficient Space Utilization
Stack racks enable vertical storage, helping businesses make the most out of their available floor space.
Improved Product Protection
Stack racks can protect products from potential damage that might occur when you stack products directly on top of each other.
Enhanced Mobility and Flexibility
Many stack rack systems come equipped with casters. Others have features that make them easy to move with a forklift.
Scalability
As your storage needs grow, you can easily add more stack racks rather than reconfigure your entire storage system.
Versatility
Stack racks can store a wide range of items. This includes odd-shaped items that may not securely fit into other storage systems.
Applications of Stack Racks
With their unique design and adaptability, stack racks are ideal for:
- Tire Storage

Used Stack Rack FAQs
How Do I Install Stack Racks?
Stackable racking is easy to install. Each rack comes with a base and four corner posts. You’ll insert each post into its section on the base. If you want to continue stacking upward, you’ll add the next base to the top of the corner posts.
If you look closely at the feet on each base, you’ll notice that they are designed to fit perfectly into the tops of the corner posts. This is how you’ll continue stacking the racks. Finally, bolting down your stack racks will keep your inventory secure and your workers safe.
What Are the Benefits of Stackable Racking?
The most important benefit of stack racks is that they are flexible. It’s this flexibility that makes them so popular in warehouses with shifting needs.
One of the most popular uses for stack racks is for storing seasonal inventory. This kind of inventory takes up lots of extra room in your warehouse, but stack racks can easily accommodate it. Once the season is over, you can disassemble the racks and store them for next time.
Additionally, stack racks are perfect for reconfiguring your warehouse floor plan or for use in a temporary warehouse. If you’ve ever installed warehouse racks before, you know just how much of a pain it can be. Stack racks make it easy to move things around and to relocate to a different space.
Can I Ship Inventory with Stack Racks?
Filled stack racks are easy to transport, which is what makes them so unique. They can be used in place of traditional wooden pallets for moving inventory between different warehouse locations.
All you have to do is load your inventory onto the rack and use a forklift to transport the rack to the truck. Using transportable stack racks prevents your workers from having to load inventory from racks to wooden pallets, saving time and increasing efficiency.

What Are Some Common Stack Rack Applications?

Some common applications include:
- Seasonal storage where portable solutions are preferred
- Creating flexible floor plans with portable racking
- Shippable storage options
- Piping and tire storage
Do You Need Special Lift Truck Forks for Stack Racks?
No. Most stack racks will have enough space to accommodate regular forklift forks—although you may need to adjust fork width according to your specific stack rack measurements.
Additionally, some stack racks feature fork stirrups. These metal hooks allow the forks to slide in and add an extra layer of security and protection to the load.
