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.

Visit our Leicestershire shelving showroom or call us on 01455 221512 to see what used shelving we have in stock and to talk about how we can help you find the best units for your store, or to discuss arrangements for us to come and pick up your used shelving for sale.

Convenience Store Shelving

For convenience store owners, space is always at a premium, and the type of shop racking you choose can make a huge difference to the efficiency of your store. It's important to plan your store layout carefully, including shop shelving and racking, shelving accessories and shop counters. Every little detail matters when you're working with a smaller space, and, since convenience stores generally stock a wider range of goods than other shops, you'll need shelving that can easily accommodate a variety of products.

Your first stop is wall shelving - the backbone of any convenience store, and the shelving that will be displaying the majority of your products. Wall shelving - as the name suggests - is assembled along a wall, with a number of units joined together to make a 'run'. Wall shelving backing can be adapted to suit the type of products you stock, for example: pegboard shelving for hanging items off hooks, magazine racking for paper goods, or adjustable standard shelving for packets, bottles and tins. Wall shelving also has a sturdy base shelf for stocking heavier, larger items, or stacking newspapers. 

Next on the list is gondola shelving - double-sided free-standing shelving units that can be joined together to form aisles either side. These units are perfect for shaping your store and creating a 'flow' for your shop traffic. The obvious benefit of gondola shelving is that you can stock twice as many products because you have shelving on both sides of the unit. Gondola shelving can also be adjusted to different heights and interchanged with different backing according to your stock.

And finally, shelving accessories like risers, epos strips and dividers can help to organise your shelves and keep your shop looking neat and tidy. Temporary and free-standing shelving such as dump bins and wire stacking baskets are ideal for filling awkward spaces and corners or for creating a queuing space near the counter, and can stock promotional items, end-of-line stock or products that are difficult to stack on a shelf. 

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.

Using Gondola Shelving to Create Displays and Promotions

Gondola shelving is a great way to create displays for your store, whether you have seasonal stock, promotional items or end-of-line products you're hoping to shift quickly. Gondolas can be used in various ways to display and organise your stock, and gondola end bays are the perfect way to highlight certain products in a prominent position in your store.

Gondola shelving is a popular choice for stores of all sizes, and offers a versatile method of displaying your stock at different heights. Gondola shelves are adjustable so you can make the space between each shelf as large or as small as you need to, enabling you to stock a number of different items on the same unit. Gondola shelves can also tilt for displaying certain items - this can be great to encourage customers to grab a spontaneous buy as they pass, or for stocking magazines, paper goods, fresh produce and more.

It's always a good idea to organise your shelves using shelf risers and dividers so that different products stay separate and can be stacked neatly. Experiment with vertical and horizontal stacking to see which looks more aesthetically pleasing, and consider adding baskets or storage boxes to shelves for an attractive appearance and a neat method of organisation.

Epos ticket strips, pricing and signage need to be neat and preferably colour coordinated to help customers find what they need easily and quickly. Draw attention to special offers and promotions with bright signs and posters - gondola end bays are a great place to put special offers so that they're easily accessible.

Our gondola shelving comes in four heights : 1.4m, 1.6m, 1.8m and 2.1m, and in a choice of different depths ranging from 300mm and 570mm to suit your shop space, with low and high end bays to match. 

At Shelving4Shops we hold large quantities of used and new shop shelving and accessories, including:

· 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.

Maintaining Your Shop Shelving

The maintenance of your store is just as important as the original fit out. Keeping your shelving neat and tidy and clean is an essential part of running your retail operation and ensures that your customers have a great first impression of your shop. Once you've chosen and fitted your shop shelving - from gondola shelving to wall shelving, dump bins to magazine racking - your next port of call is to purchase a range of shop shelving accessories that will keep your store looking great.

Shelving accessories include shelf risers and dividers, Epos ticket strips, spare shelves, end finisher legs, dump bins, wire stacking baskets, shopping baskets and any other product that helps your daily operations go smoothly. All these items offer a cost-effective way of maintaining your shop and organise your products for easy browsing. Sometimes time is limited when you're trying to run a busy shop, and maintenance might be low on your to-do list but it's important to make regular cleaning and tidying a part of your daily and weekly routine. 

Here are a few things you should have on your maintenance checklist for your store:

• Replacing cracked and faded Epos strips
• Neatening products in individual shelves 
• Sweeping under and around shelving
• Dusting and wiping down shelves 
• Checking lighting and electrical goods
• Cleaning and checking refrigerated units
• Stacking shelves and organising products
• Changing window displays and end bays
• Restocking dump bins with promotional or end-of-line products
• Posting up special offer signs and posters
• Neatening and cleaning your shop counter
• Ensuring aisles are clear and easy to move around (especially for wheelchairs and pushchairs)
• Checking the condition (and smell!) of fresh products

Keeping a tidy and fresh store makes a great impression on customers and is an important part of running a store. If you find it hard to maintain your store, you might need to think about reorganising your shelving configuration.

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.

Extra Shop Shelving for Displaying Christmas Stock

Christmas is coming! The next few months are always a busy time for retailers but you can make the most of the holiday period by thinking carefully about your shop shelving configuration and the way you display your goods. You could really boost your Christmas sales with a few small changes to your store!

One of the easiest ways to improve the efficiency of your store is by filling all the awkward empty spaces with extra shelving like dump bins and stacking wire baskets. These lightweight temporary shelving accessories make the very best of your store space and maximise the number of products you can display. Line up dump bins by your counter to create a handy queuing area with plenty of room for stocking promotional and seasonal items. Stacking wire baskets are perfect for fresh produce or products that are difficult to stack on a standard shelf. 

For wall shelving and gondola shelving, little additions can make a big difference to the efficiency of your store, such as end bays, corner shelving units and promotional bays to cap off each run. These provide extra shelving space with a big impact, especially when they face the front doors and will be the first thing visitors see. 

Getting some new signage and Epos strips is an easy and cheap way of sprucing up your store in time for Christmas, along with some festive decorations and a bit of tinsel! And don't forget shelving and shop shelving accessories like coloured shopping baskets to make your store as inviting and easy-to-use as possible.
