Used storage racking

Pros and cons of used racks

The versatility of modern business could not but affect the logistics of enterprises. Most often, universal equipment, which is widely represented on the Ukrainian market, is suitable for the organization of production and logistics operations. However, the issue of saving money when starting or expanding a business involves considering such an option as buying second-hand racks for the warehouse.

Of course, such a purchase is associated with a large number of risks. However, by consulting with SSC experts, the risk of such agreements can be minimized. You can also buy used warehouse racks with significant benefits for your business.

The positive indicators of acceptance of such a project into development include:

• efficiency of receiving the ready equipment;
• favorable price offer;
• the ability to evaluate the finished rack for the warehouse before buying;
• adaptability of designs for the purchase of universal models.

These benefits only work if you work with official representatives and suppliers of storage equipment. In most cases, even used equipment is guaranteed for a shorter period. And also with careful use, you will be able to offer this equipment for resale. If you prefer the selection of second-hand warehouse racks yourself, you should pay attention to the following possible problems of such an agreement:

1. outdated models without the possibility of adaptation;
2. mechanical damage that cannot be repaired;
3. corrosion and fatigue of metal;
4. highly specialized design;
5. discrepancy of racks for second-hand warehouse concerning necessary loading under your cargo turnover.

Therefore, our company recommends buying storage racks, after consulting with specialists who will be able to offer you warranty service and a list of proven suppliers.

How to choose the right used rack for warehouse?

When buying used racks, pay attention first of all to a complete set of a design and its prevalence in the market of Ukraine. Because some of the designs will have to be completed with additional accessories or completely replace them. Also an important parameter is the maximum load of the rack, this is especially important if you plan to purchase high structures for oversized or palletized goods.

You should also carefully check the appearance of structures for corrosion, paint chips, cracks and deformation of all structural elements of the rack.

Be sure to choose a configuration that suits your type of process, because any modification of this complexity can cost as much as buying new equipment. Frontal, exit and multi-tier models are optimal for wholesale, medium and large-scale production, as well as for large logistics terminals. While shelf systems are suitable for offices, archives, small and large retailers.
