Whether you’re on a tight budget, having a revamp or you just need to sell your current shelving fixtures, we can help. 

Here at Shelving4Shops, we buy and sell used shop shelving and equipment. We pride ourselves on providing a wide range of both new and used supermarket shelving in our large warehouse facility based in the Midlands. 

If you’re having a revamp of your store and need a helping hand, we specialise in the removal of large shelving fixtures and equipment from some of the UK’s biggest well known supermarkets, as well as small convenience stores. 

Our highly experienced team are on standby, ready to dismantle and remove your current shelving fixtures in a quick, but safe manner. We will work to a time scale that suits you best, even if you have a large amount of space with a limited time scale- we will work with you every step of the way to ensure the job gets done. 

Purchasing used shelving units are ideal if you’re on a tight budget. Depending on the size and availability of the fitting, having used shop shelving can save you money. It’s important to consider the fact that used shop shelving tends to be quite large in size and deep in depth, so it’s important to plan your shop layout before making the decision to purchase used shop shelving. 

If you need a hand planning your store layout, or just simply want to check availability, give our friendly sales team a call today on 01455 221512.

We Buy (and Sell) Used Shop Shelving!

Did you know that Shelving4Shops will come and dismantle and purchase your used retail shelving? If you have used shop shelving, supermarket shelving or convenience store shelving that you're looking to update, let us know and we'll come and take a look to see if we're able to take it off your hands! The Shelving4Shops team are experts in retail shelving and we understand the need for retailers to keep shelving costs down. If you're refitting your store or updating old shelving, don't just throw your old units away - you might be able to make a bit of cash by selling it on to us before you choose your new shelving. We'll even help you plan your new store layout...

Our shelving specialists are able to remove shop shelving from stores of all sizes - whether you have a little local corner shop or a 30,000 square foot supermarket! Just get in touch and tell us about your situation and we'll give you a quote for disassembly and removal. We work with tight budgets and short schedules so no job is too big or small or quick or complicated! 

On the other hand, if you're looking to buy used shop shelving you can really save yourself some money and make refitting or updating your store a simple operation. The main thing to consider when buying used shelving is how best you can organise your shelving configuration in your store space. The width and depth of your shelving can dictate how easy it is for customers to move around your store, while the height will affect the visibility around your store for your visitors and your staff. 

A decent store plan will help you to work out where best to place your counter, gondola shelving and wall shelving, and we'll be happy to help you put a layout together. At Shelving4Shops we hold large quantities of used and new shop shelving and accessories, including:

· Gondola shelving - This is one of the most popular shelving choices we offer, it is a highly versatile option that can be used to create aisles throughout your store or can be used in conjunction with other shelving units we offer to create one seamless shelving unit throughout your store.
· Wall shelving - This shelving can be used around the perimeter of your shop floor to maximise your floor space and provide ample room for displaying items.
· Shopping baskets - Using baskets throughout your store encourages customers to pick up more items throughout their visit as they are not having to balance items in their arms.
· Wire stacking baskets and dump bins - These are an excellent way to display impulse purchase items and sale items throughout the store. As these are freestanding they can be used to fill empty space in your store and can be easily moved to create new interesting displays.
· Corner shelving - Utilise every inch of floor space you have by using specialist corner shelving to bring life back into an overlooked corner of your store. These units can be used in conjunction with our other bay units to create a seamless display.
· Peg board shelving and pegs -Not all products sit well on classic flat shelving, our range of pegboard shelving allows you to hang products to ensure they are displayed in the best way possible. All of our bays can be slotted together to ensure a seamless shelving display.

What's the Story? Shelving4shops in Balamory!

Do your kids watch Balamory? You might recognise this corner shop from one of our recent jobs then... The old converted church which was used as a convenience store in Tobermory sadly had to close its doors last year. With no help locally, the Shelving4Shops team was called in to take away the used shop shelving and multideck chillers.  Being based in Leicestershire and having good travel connections all around the UK this was no problem. The winding roads of the small village did however pose a particular issue for an articulated lorry with a forklift strapped to its back! Permits needed to be granted to allow the large vehicle through the streets of Tobermory but our team was able to sort all of this for the shop owner so he had no need to worry.

A forklift truck was brought in for the heavy lifting and as you can see it was a bit of a tight squeeze through the old church door but nothing the Shelving4shops team couldn't handle...

As the shop had been used as a convenience store there were a lot of chillers and fridges to be removed as well as used gondola and wall shelving. The lorry was ready and waiting and the dismantling of the store took just a day to complete.


While it is sad that the shop had to close its doors, the new owners have decided to turn this beautiful old building into a restaurant and tea room, and so we wish them every success with the new business.

Second-hand shop shelving is available to purchase from Shelving4Shops. We are always on the lookout for quality used shop shelving so if you have a store closing and would like a quote on your second hand shelving, please send us some photos and details to sales@shelving4shops.co.uk. Alternatively, if you would like to buy used shop shelving for your store, please call us 01455 221512 and we can let you know what we have in stock.

As well as second-hand shop shelving we stock a full range of new shelving:

• Gondola shelving - A classic choice for many retail stores, gondola shelving is a truly versatile shelving option and as it comes in 4 heights and 4 widths you can be assured you will find the correct size shelving for your store.
• Wall shelving - Using wall shelving can save space and utilise your empty back wall! This shelving sits against the wall optimising your available floor space and allows you to have aisles that accommodate pushchairs and trolleys.
• Promotional end bays - The best place to display your sale items is in the direct path of customers, not all customers are going to go down every aisle but they will walk past the end of them to reach other sections of the store or to get to the checkout. Utilise this prime space in your store by putting sale/promotional items in end bays and use clear signage to highlight great savings.
• Corner shelving bays - Corners are often a dead space due to the shape of more popular shelving but the simple addition of corner shelf can open up forgotten space and optimise the floor space you have.
• Magazine shelving - One of the biggest selling points of magazines are the front covers, by using magazine shelving you can clearly see the front cover and attract customers. These units can also be used to sell other paper goods where it is important to be able to see the front, like greeting cards.
• Pegboard shelving - Some items do not work well on a flat shelf, pegboard shelving allows you to hang items allowing them to be viewed better. If you no longer need hanging space, shelves can be fixed to pegboard shelving to ensure you always have the best display options for your store.
• Dump bins and wire baskets - This style of display can utilise a dead space of the store or can be used to create a section near the checkout so people know where to queue. Alternatively, use dump bins and wire baskets around the store to encourage impulse purchases or to promote sale items. 
• Shelving accessories - Customise your shelves to your store, from coloured EPOS strips to shelf dividers you can take any shelving and make it work perfectly for your store.
