Used Pallet Racking in Utah
Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions maintains a large inventory of inspected used pallet racking for Utah businesses looking to maximize their storage budget. Our used racking is physically inspected by our team before sale - we will not sell racking that fails our structural criteria.
Why Buy Used Pallet Racking?
Used pallet racking can save Utah businesses 30-50% compared to new racking, with the same structural performance when properly inspected. For businesses on a tight timeline, used inventory is often available immediately - compared to 2-8 week lead times for new racking.
Used racking is particularly well-suited for: temporary or short-term storage needs, secondary storage areas where cosmetic condition is less important, businesses with limited capital budgets, and projects where speed of installation is critical.

Our Used Racking Inspection Process
Every piece of used racking we sell has been physically inspected by our team. Our inspection process follows ANSI/RMI MH16.1 criteria and covers:
- Uprights: Check for bends, dents, base plate damage, and weld integrity
- Beams: Check for deflection, connector integrity, and safety pin function
- Bracing: Verify diagonal and horizontal bracing is intact and undamaged
- Load capacity: Confirm load ratings are documented and appropriate
- Compatibility: Verify components are from compatible manufacturers
We will not sell used racking that fails these criteria. If you purchase used racking from us and discover a defect we missed, contact us immediately - we stand behind our inspection process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is used pallet racking safe?
Used pallet racking is safe when it has been properly inspected and meets ANSI/RMI structural criteria. Damaged racking - regardless of whether it is new or used - is not safe. Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions inspects all used racking before sale and will not sell structurally compromised components.
Can I mix used and new racking components?
In some cases, yes - but only when components are from the same manufacturer and the same product line. Mixing uprights and beams from different manufacturers is not recommended and may void load ratings. Our team can advise on compatibility.
Do you buy used pallet racking?
Yes. Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions purchases used pallet racking from Utah businesses that are closing, downsizing, or reconfiguring. Contact us to discuss your used racking inventory.
