Save Money With Second Hand Shop Shelving

Save money and make money by choosing second hand shop shelving for your store. There are two ways to help out your budget when it comes to used shop fittings: 1) Replace or refit with second hand shop shelving, and/or 2) sell on your old shop shelving to Shelving4Shops and make some extra cash!




If your store is in need of a refit or you have old units that need replacing, second hand shelving can be a cost-effective option for any size store. At Shelving4Shops we source used supermarket and convenience store shelving from all across the UK and offer a variety of second hand retail shop fittings for sale at our showroom in Leicestershire, alongside our new shop shelving and accessories, including:
  • ·     Gondola shelving - A popular choice in many stores due to its versatility and functionality, gondola shelving is a staple shelving option for stores of any size. You can use this shelving to create aisles within your store and the range of heights and widths we stock mean that we have the shelving size for you.
    ·     Wall shelving - Use wall shelving around the edge of your store to provide plenty of shelving space while optimising the floor space you have available.
    ·     Shopping baskets - By having stacks of baskets at the front of the store and dotted around the aisles you will encourage customers to purchase more items as it is easier to carry them in a basket than with their hands.
    ·     Wire stacking baskets - These are an excellent way to display sale and impulse purchase items in your store. As these are freestanding they can be used to fill empty spaces and can be easily moved to create new interesting displays.
    ·     Corner shelving - Utilise every inch of floor space you have in your store by using specialist corner shelving to bring life back into an overlooked corner.
    ·     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.
Choose used shelving that fits perfectly with your existing units and save yourself some money on updating your store. And if you have shelving that you need to get rid of, get in touch with our retail shelving team at Shelving4Shops and we'll come to disassemble and remove your shelving units for you!

Why Buy Used Retail Shelving?

Used retail shelving can save you money and often provides all the benefits of new shelving with very few drawbacks. You can find a wide range of used and new shop shelving at Shelving4Shops, or request a specific type of shelving units and we'll do our best to source it for you!



Used shop shelving and racking can be almost brand new, or years old - it is generally taken from stores that are undergoing a refit or closing down, so in most cases is in perfectly good condition and will remain usable and durable for many more years. Sometimes used shelving will have a little surface wear - knocks and scratches and marks etc - but these are almost always superficial and will not affect the use of the units. It's very easy to make used shelving look smart and new; a thorough clean, adding lining paper or bright Epos strips and your second hand unit will look fantastic. For used shelving that looks a bit more beaten up, why not use it in your warehouse or store room?

You may find, of course, that there is little difference between the price of brand new retail shelving and second hand shop shelving, so you may better off choosing new. One of the only drawbacks of used shelving is that you may not be able to find an exact match for existing units or a particular brand. However, at Shelving4Shops we always do our best to source the best match possible for a cohesive and seamless look for your retail shelving.

Alongside used shop shelving we also stock a full range of new shop shelving and accessories, including:

·     Gondola shelving - Many stores choose to use gondola shelving due to its versatility and the range of widths and heights that we stock mean that it is perfect for every store. This shelving can be used to create aisles throughout your store and provide ample display room.
·     Wall shelving - If you have a lot of wall space then wall shelving is an excellent way to maximise the floor space you have available. We have a range of heights and widths available to ensure you can find the perfect fit for your store.
·     Shopping baskets - Placing stacks of baskets at the front of your store makes it easier for customers to carry more items. It can also help to have stacks of baskets around the store to encourage customers to pick up more items than they originally intended. 
·     Wire stacking baskets - Using wire stacking baskets can be a great way to fill that empty space in the corner or that open floor space you have that is too small for a full bay of shelving. The versatility of these baskets make them a great addition to any store and can be moved regularly to draw customers eyes to new displays.
·     Corner shelving - The design of classic straight shelving means that often a corner is left empty or block off. The simple addition of a corner shelving unit can open up that corner and provide extra display space for products.
·     Peg board shelving and pegs - Not all products that are stocked will sit well on traditional flat shelving, pegboard shelving is an excellent alternative that can, with the simple addition of hooks, easily display hanging items.

Versatile Gondola Shelving

gondola shelving

Gone are the days of the old Grandville sketches where the shopkeeper hands you your products over the counter. Now the buyer wants choice, they want to look around and take in the various products on offer to them. The shopkeeper has to enable this by using their retail space efficiently. Gondola shelving is just one of the ways Shelving4Shops can help with this.

Gondola shelves are shelving units which offer a double-sided storage space, with the choice of either pegboard or standard shelves. Gondola shelving units are free-standing which uses only a small amount of space considering the amount of shelving you gain, optimising the number of products you can stock per square metre. Gondola shelves are durable and are perfect for holding heavy products like tinned food and canned or bottled drinks.

One of the main benefits of gondola shelving is being able to create aisles easily and effectively, giving your store a bigger overall look. Create a logistical and attractive store while utilising all the space available is one of the main challenges facing all store owners, and the Shelving4Shops team can help with all aspects of retail shelving and shop layout to help you find a solution for your store.
gondola shelving
You can find gondola shelving in every type of store, from large supermarkets to small toy shops. Gondola shelving is one of the most popular ways allow customers to shop at ease, offering a convenient and pleasurable shopping experience where the customer has the opportunity to see, touch and feel products on display. You are far more likely to get impulse sales when you offer an easy shopping experience.

Our gondola shelving is available in numerous heights, lengths and widths to cater to your requirements. Pegboard backing can also be used with this type of shelving to offer you a quick and easy way to change the layout of your products, or maybe make your gondola units seasonal for Christmas or summer. You can even add wire stacking baskets to the shelving to hold single packets of crisps, small toys or other items which may be awkward to stack neatly. The versatility of gondola shelving is outstanding and this cost-effective shelf unit can be an invaluable resource for any store owner.

gondola shelving

If you are unsure of the space you need for a gondola unit, call one of our experienced Shelving4Shops team who will be happy to help you. All we need are the measurements for the floor space for you have, or a basic store plan (even a rough sketch on a piece of A4 is very useful).

gondola shelving

Taking time to find the right gondola shelving for your store is very important - if you look after your shelving it will last for years to come. If you take a look in our showroom we can show you the durability and strength of our products and talk you through your various options.

Gondola shelving is a cost-effective shelving option, but if your budget is very tight why not try our second hand shop shelving? Being second hand they might have some minor usage marks or scratches but they will not be prominent and once filled with your stock will be barely noticeable if noticeable at all.

At Shelving4Shops we are always updating our stock ranges and have large quantities of new shop shelving and accessories, including:

·     Wall shelving - If you have a lot of wall space then wall shelving is an excellent way to maximise the floor space you have available. We have a range of heights and widths available to ensure you can find the perfect fit for your store.
·     Shopping baskets - Placing stacks of baskets at the front of your store makes it easier for customers to carry more items. It can also help to have stacks of baskets around the store to encourage customers to pick up more items than they originally intended.

Saving Money with Used Shop Shelving

second hand shop shelving
Used and second hand shop shelving at our Midlands showroom
One way to save money on expensive shop refits is to buy used shop shelving, especially if you're embarking on a new venture and there is no guarantee how well things will go.

At Shelving4Shops we try our hardest to source and supply used shop shelving to offer customers on a budget great value for money. We also offer a dismantle and collection service for larger stores, so if you are buying or selling second hand shelving you have come the right place. There are many different sizes of  shelving, for example: a standard size of  gondola shelving unit for larger cash and carries or supermarkets would start at 1400mm height and go up to 2100mm.

Shelf depths start at 200mm and go up to 570mm and it is important to get the right size of shelf to fit your store, not just to buy the cheapest shelving you can find or use something that your friends found in the back of his shop! Just because it’s cheap, it doesn’t mean it’s the right shelving for your store. Buying second hand shelving from a large cash and carry to put into a small convenience store will be costly in the long run when you find you have to take it all down and replace it with smaller shelves. At Shelving4Shops we are always happy to advise you on store layouts and shop plans, helping you to design the right shelving configuration that will work for you and your customers.

We also have a showroom containing our wide range of shelving and shop fitting accessories, making it easy to decide and visualise exactly what you need. If we don’t have exactly what you need within our used shelving stock, there is always the option of buying new shelving and fixtures. Most of our customers are surprised that there is very little difference between new and used shelving prices and how cheap it can be to refit a new shop.

Alongside our second-hand shelving options at Shelving4Shops we hold large quantities of shop shelving and accessories, including:

·     Gondola shelving - This is a popular shelving choice in many stores, use gondola units to create aisles throughout your store or use them in conjunction with other units we offer to create seamless shelving 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 - Placing baskets at the front and around your store is a great way to encourage customers to purchase more items as baskets make it easier for them to hold items.
·     Wire stacking baskets - These are an excellent way, like dump bins, 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.
·     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.

Save Cash on Your Retail Shelving

When fitting out a supermarket, convenience store or retail store with shelving, cost and budget are usually in the forefront of your mind. For business owners, finding shop shelving that is both durable and cost-effective can have a big impact on their overall budget and start-up costs. At Shelving4Shops, we help a huge range of stores to save cash and find the most efficient shelving options for their individual requirements.




So how can you save money on your retail shelving and racking? You have several options depending on the size of your store, the types of products you stock, and the style of shelving you need. The best thing to do is to pop into the Shelving4Shops showroom or give us a call on 01455 221512 to discuss your situation, and our shop shelving experts can help you to put together a plan of action. But for some instant help, here are a few suggestions on how to save cash on your shop shelving and accessories.


Plan Your Layout


Having a good shop shelving plan is integral to making sure you are making the most cost-effective choices on your shop fittings. If you're unsure about how to go about making a store plan, simply note down the dimensions of your space and email us or drop into the Shelving4Shops showroom so that we can help you to design your perfect store.


When planning your store, think about the positioning of refrigerated shelving units (which are generally placed at the back of the store), the space between shelving units (which should be wide enough for a wheelchair or pushchair to pass through), and the types of shop shelving you will need for different products. Once you have all these elements in place, you will be able to choose the best layout possible.

Choose Second Hand Shop Shelving


Second hand shop shelving can save you money on your store shelving and racking, and the used shop shelving we stock at Sheving4Shops is high quality and can be matched with existing shelving units. We are one of the top shelving removal specialists in the country and are able to offer a huge range of used shelving to help you keep under budget while fitting out your store. Our used shelving includes gondola shelving, wall shelving, pegboard shelving, end bays, magazine shelving, shop racking and accessories. Get in touch to find out what we currently have available.


Replace Individual Units and Update Existing Shelving


Sometimes it's more cost-effective to rearrange your existing units and only replace the shelving that really needs updating. This way you'll be able to find a brand new configuration for your store and save money on shelving units that didn't really need to be replaced. You can brighten up older shop shelving units with a good clean, some new Epos ticket strips and fresh signage. A few new shop shelving units can fill the gaps and make your store look brand new with minimum fuss and expense. We can match your existing shelving with appropriately sized units so that the switch is totally seamless!

Maximise Your Space and Buy Fewer Units


Think carefully about the width and size of your units and the cheapest way to fill your store space. For example, choosing wider shelving units may mean that you will need fewer in total. Once again, a good floor plan will help you here. Changing the way you organise your retail shelving can also help you to make the right choices about the units you choose. Would your gondola run work better in a different direction? Could you choose deeper shelves? What about refrigerated shelving? Consider the best use of your space and buy as few units as possible to save yourself some cash.

Choose High Quality Shop Shelving

Finally, choosing the best quality shelving you can afford will certainly save you money in the long run. It may mean more initial outlay but the durability and longevity of your shelving rely on the quality of the units. Your store's success lies with your shop shelving - poor quality shelves that need replacing or fail to hold their load will not only cause extra costs but will disrupt your store unnecessarily.

·     Gondola shelving - This is a popular shelving choice in many stores, use gondola units to create aisles throughout your store or use them in conjunction with other units we offer to create seamless shelving throughout your store

Shelving4Shops Clear Used Shelving from the Olympic Village




It might not have been a gold medal event but it certainly was a golden opportunity to help dismantle some of the Olympic Village! This used shelving was easy to dismantle and with our skilled team on hand, the job took us just a day complete.



Being so professional on-site made the Olympic clean-up team’s job much easier and they were happy to see all of the shelving and uprights come down in a safe and timely manner.



Shelving4Shops is happy to quote for used shop shelving, and offer a dismantling service for larger stores, including supermarkets.


We not only offer used shop shelving but we are also able to supply and fit new shelving, so if we don’t have enough second hand shop shelving you could top up by mixing it with some new! We have the following new shelving available along with many more:
  • Vegetable and fruit displays - Many stores now sell fresh produce as customers are likely to repurchase frequently due to its short shelf life. Fruit and vegetables are a product that consumers like to pick up and visually inspect before purchasing so it is important to use a display system that caters to this. Using baskets and trays ensures that all the produce will not fall to the floor once customers start purchasing goods.
  • Gondola shelving units - A classic shelving option in many stores, gondola shelving is highly versatile and comes in a 4 heights and 4 widths to ensure you find the perfect match for your store. 
  • Magazine shelving units - The best way to display magazines is upright so customers can quickly and easily see the front cover which is often the main selling point. These units can be used for any paper goods where it is important to the sale to see the front, e.g. greeting cards.
  • Corner shelving systems - Make the most of the floor space you have by placing corner shelving units in those overlooked corners of your store. 
  • Wall shelving bays - If you are limited on space using wall shelving bays ensure you can use your floor space to create aisles and allow shoppers to easily navigate through your store.


Why not visit us at www.shelving4shops.co.uk or call us on 01455 221512 and see what we have in stock?
