What buyers will ask about
Answer these in the description and you will spend less time on the phone.
- Upright height and depth, beam length, and the capacity rating from the label or the maker's chart.
- Bent, dented or twisted uprights: a damaged upright should not go back into service.
- Beam connectors and safety clips, and whether they match the uprights you already own.
- Wire decking and row spacers, and whether they are included in the price.
- Who takes it down: some sellers dismantle it, others expect you to bring a crew and a lift.
Pricing it
Used selective pallet rack typically sells by the section or by the piece, with uprights and beam pairs from the tens of dollars to the low hundreds each. Shelving units and wire decking usually run lower, and mezzanines from the low to high thousands depending on size. The Sell form shows price guidance from comparable YardSwaps sales once there are enough of them.
