Those commercial racks are good for lots of stuff better than scrap. When they were mostly made of metal I was always looking for them to use for shelving etc. Long before Ever considering collecting scrap metal, I'd actively look for store shelving being thrown out, and metal bed frames. Two of the main shelving and workbench units in my computer fix-up/tear-down room now are things I pieced together 25 or 30 years ago for Mom to use for her sewing and canning. When I began setting up a room inside here to work in I re-purpesed them from an old storage shed because they're still the strongest things around.
So much now is plastic, I would be dumbfounded seeing stores throwing out metal shelving and installing cheap plastic ones, but I'm glad I collected what I did of it
