Used Pallet Rack Dealers in Illinois — 2 Companies
Used rack dealers buy, refurbish, and sell pre-owned pallet rack and warehouse equipment. If your budget is tight or your need is immediate, used rack can save 40-60% vs. new — and the steel doesn't know the difference. The trade-off is limited selection and the need to verify compatibility with what you already have. Chicago is the undisputed freight capital of North America. More rail freight passes through Chicago than any other city on the continent. The I-55, I-80, and I-88 corridors south and west of the city contain one of the densest concentrations of warehouses and distribution centers in the world.
What Does a Used Equipment Dealer Do?
Used dealers source rack from warehouse closures, reconfigurations, and corporate surplus. They inventory the material, clean it up (sometimes repaint), sort by size and manufacturer, and resell it. The best dealers inspect for structural damage, provide accurate measurements, and can tell you the manufacturer and capacity of what they're selling. Some also handle delivery and installation.
