What Are the Steps for Pallet Racking Liquidation?

When you are liquidating your pallet racks and other warehouse equipment, there are a few options. You can take the time to document, photograph and list the items on an online marketplace, like eBay, or reach out to other businesses to see if there is interest in purchasing them. These take a considerable amount of time and may not yield the best results.

The most efficient way to sell your pallet racks is to work with an expert material-handling company like Conesco Storage Systems. Conesco can evaluate your pallet rack liquidation assets, provide an offer based on fair-market value and even handle the teardown and cleanup if you want.

A Pallet Racking Liquidation Plan

Proper preparation and planning are key to a smooth liquidation process. Following these steps can get you started.

Take Inventory

Put together a comprehensive inventory of your pallet racks and any other equipment that you plan on selling. Make a note of the age, condition and estimated value of each item. The inventory will be your guide on which items likely have resale value, what can be recycled and what has to be scrapped.

Determine Timelines

You also need to establish a pallet racking liquidation timeline. This needs to include:

• Evaluating and tagging assets
• Teardown and removal
• Recycling and disposal of remaining items
• Facility cleanup

Equipment may also require inspection, cleaning or minor repairs. You will also want to build in time for any other work that needs to happen. For example, many companies want to remove company logos or identification on their pallet racks before selling.

Value Assessment

Finding the fair-market value in a pallet rack liquidation process can be tricky. It depends on the quality of the pallet racking, the demand for used equipment and what is up for sale elsewhere. It is also important to get an accurate value of your assets to get an idea of how they match remaining asset values and depreciation for tax purposes.

A professional evaluation from an experienced material handling company can provide an accurate estimate so you know what your equipment is really worth. A company like Conesco that buys and sells huge volumes of used equipment knows market pricing, so you get a fair deal.

Selling Your Equipment

You can sell equipment yourself, but it can be an extremely challenging and time-intensive process. You will need to itemize, tag and photograph equipment, market your assets to potential buyers and negotiate deals. And there is no guarantee that your pallet racking will sell for fair market.

Equipment Teardown

Your plan will also need to account for equipment teardown, making sure the job is done safely and without damaging equipment.

Scrap and Cleanup

Leftover equipment that cannot be sold or is damaged has to be disposed of. You may be able to recycle some assets, while others need to be hauled away. After you have successfully liquidated your pallet racking, you will need to clean up the area and make any necessary repairs or modifications.
