These specialized racks are used for storage and transportation. We offer industrial solutions for handling plastic molded components, metal stampings, castings, and automotive component parts. They get parts off the floor, which helps to clear up valuable facility space.

Each automotive shipping rack we supply is engineered around the specific part to optimize protection and improve efficiency and storage density:

  • Bag racks use vinyl dividers to safely separate lightweight components like door panels and dashboards, maintaining pristine surface condition during handling and shipping. Each vinyl pocket isolates a single part, significantly reducing the risk of components coming into contact in transit.
  • Stack racks leverage vertical storage for tires and shipping loads, often stacking four to five high for enhanced warehouse utilization, subject to load and facility specifications.
  • Pcorr racks incorporate custom die-cut polyethylene dunnage to securely cradle injection-molded plastic parts in transit, maintaining part integrity throughout the supply chain.
  • Returnable shipping racks provide dedicated support for engines, driveshafts, and bulky body assemblies, delivering superior stability compared to palletized stacking.
  • Muffler and exhaust racks store bulky exhaust systems while maximizing floor space, turning vertical height into storage capacity.

Custom-Engineered Racks Built to Your Parts

Custom-engineered racks deliver superior trailer space utilization and part protection tailored to your exact specifications. Warehouse Rack & Shelf engineers design custom automotive racks around your unique part geometry, whether you provide manufacturing drawings, CAD files, or a sample rack for reverse engineering. Our engineering team analyzes part dimensions, weight distribution, and handling requirements to enhance trailer density.

Custom options include removable posts for streamlined shipping cycles, hinged corner assemblies that simplify production line loading, and tailored dunnage that improves trailer cube utilization. Our custom transport racks align with your operational workflow, from forklift access points to stackability requirements.

Returnable Racks That Cut Shipping Costs

Returnable shipping racks deliver rapid ROI by replacing disposable packaging with reusable systems that eliminate recurring material expenses. Collapsible designs collapse at up to a 4-to-1 ratio, maximizing efficiency and minimizing costs for return shipments from assembly plants to component manufacturers.

Stackable and reusable construction increases parts per trailer while protecting profit margins by reducing damage rates. By replacing disposable packaging, returnable racks typically deliver cost savings and improved sustainability performance. For complete line protection, our automotive containers complement returnable shipping racks with wire and steel bins engineered for smaller components and fasteners.
