Where's the best place to buy warehouse racking

I'm looking to buy a shelving unit for my shed but I want something stronger than the ones sold in diy stores so I'm thinking of buying warehouse racking but I don't know the best place to buy it so can someone recommend some places.

    I've been happy with the shelving I bought from BiGDUG. https://www.bigdug.co.uk/

    I've had it for more than 10 years. Looking on their website, it's now called "BiGDUG Essentials 265Kg Shelving".

    Probably the heaviest things we store on them are part-used tins of paint. Each shelf can be fully-loaded with such tins.

    The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.

    There are a few companies that specialise in second hand racking.

    I know when my previous employer shut down they couldn't give the stuff away, and hundreds of meters of it went into the skip.

    Suffice to say, myself and many of my ex colleagues are now completely sorted for garage storage for life! 😁
