Storing tires can be difficult for businesses or individuals.  Here is part 2 of our tire storage guide to help ensure that your tires are stored correctly and safely.  To read part one, click HERE. 

6. Keep the sun off

Tires need to stay out of the sun, as the exposure to the sun heats the tires, leading them to warp and deform.  They soak up all sunlight sent at them, and this takes away a lot of the long term durability of the tires.

7. Ozone will kill them

Ozone can damage tires, so make sure that the tires aren't stored in the warehouse near machinery that creates a lot of ozone, like electric motors, furnaces, and central vacuums.

8. Storing tires on the vehicle is very stressful

If you have to store a vehicle for long periods of time, the constant weight on the tires can cause tire damage. If you can, move the vehicle or take it out for a short drive every once in a while – you’ll relieve the stress on the tire and help keep the tire’s rubber compounds lubricated and supple. If your vehicle is stored outside, cover the tires to protect them from direct sunlight.

9. Tires need a cool, dry environment

When it’s time to put your tires away, make sure you store them in a cool, dry place like your basement, climate-controlled garage, or workshop. Avoid storing tires outdoors, in a standard garage, or in an attic – basically, any place that could be very hot, wet, humid, or cold.

10. Tires with different colors or lettering are very vulnerable

Use caution when storing whitewall or white-lettered tires. If you stack the tires, stack white-to-white and black-to-black (white sides touching each other and black sides touching each other). This will help keep the white parts of the tire pristine and clean. And of course, if you used storage bags as mentioned earlier, this won’t even be a concern.

Learning how to properly store tires can be a real headache.  Do you store them on their sides?  Up and down?  Interlaced?  On the rim or off?  Here is Part 1 of our list of tire storage tips.  Look for Part 2 next week!

1. Clean the tires before storage

Ensure that your tires are clean before they are stored, as the accumulation of gunk on them can lead to damage and wear on them.  They can also stain, giving them the appearance of older, used tires, even for brand-new tires.

2. Try sealing them

The less air trapped with the tires, the better they perform.  Tires can be bagged and air sealed, to help ensure that they don't develop rot or mold.

3. Store them straight up

The best way to store tires is standing upright – it puts less stress on the tires. If you have to stack your tires, try not to stack them too high. If your tire tower gets too tall, it could topple over and damage the tires.

However, if your tires are mounted on the rims, you should store them stacked, not upright.

4. Can they be hung?

If your tires are mounted on the rims, hanging them from hooks is a great storage option. But unmounted tires should never be hung – the stress can cause distortion and damage.

5. Tire totes? Do such things really exist?

They do – some folks like to use “tire totes” to store and carry tires. While these totes are convenient, tidy, and make carrying tires easier, they’re not airtight, so they don’t necessarily protect tires from the atmosphere. If you want to use tire totes, we recommend putting the tires in plastic bags (as described above) first, then putting them in the totes.

Tier-Rack Corporation of St. Louis wants to make sure that you are using Tire Racks properly for indoor storage.  To that end, here's a list of ways to ensure that the tire racks you get are put to good use and keep your tires safe and sound.

• Store tires in a clean, cool, dry, dark area away from direct sunlight. The area should be well ventilated, but with a minimum of circulating air.
• The storage area must be kept clean and any oil, grease or water that may contaminate the tire and all nails, stones, wood chips or any other object that may damage the tire must be removed.
• Tires should be stored on a pallet or storage rack to minimize exposure to moisture or damage. Damaged pallets or storage racks should not be used.
• Store tires away from electric motors, battery chargers, electric welding equipment, electric generators and similar equipment. Such equipment creates ozone which has a deteriorating effect on rubber.
• Storing tires upright in tire racks prevents distortion or disfiguration and will make mounting easier. If it is necessary to store tires in a horizontal position, stack the tires in such a manner so that the bottom tire will maintain its shape.
• Whitewall and raised white letter tires that are not wrapped should be stored with white sidewalls facing each other to avoid staining the white through contact with the black rubber of the other tires.
• Tires stored while mounted on rims should be inflated to 50% of the normal pressure.
• Tires that have been in storage the longest should be used first.

Tier-Rack Corporation invented the stacking rack in 1955, and has been the leader in storage rack technology ever since, giving companies ways to store different products in different ways, including their revolutionary tire racks.  For more information on how Tier-Rack Corp can help keep your tire stock healthy, visit www.tier-rack.com today.

The Tire Industry Association (TIA) has issued a new environmental best management practice to manage the flow of tires removed from service by tire generators. The guidelines were created by TIA’s Environmental Advisory Council (EAC).

Almost all states have enacted rules, regulations and licensing requirements for properly managing the flow of tires removed from service by tire industry generators (tire dealers, retailers, car dealers, service stations, etc.). Responsible management of this valuable raw material is essential to ensure that tires taken out of service are properly reused, recycled or disposed. TIA says the new best management practice provides guidelines for tire generators to follow when tires are removed from vehicles or received from consumers.

TIA Executive Vice President Roy Littlefield says, “The generator plays a crucial role to ensure that scrap tires are not improperly disposed in neighborhoods, waterways or abandoned piles. We encourage TIA members and everyone in the industry to follow this best practice. By doing so, scrap tires can be utilized in beneficial ways and lessen our industry’s impact on the environment.”

This document, along with five additional best management practices, is available for download free of charge on TIA’s website www.tireindustry.org. Each of the best practices describes procedures that should be followed for handling, transporting, recycling and/or disposing of items such as used oil, fluids, degreasers, batteries and tires.

Tier-Rack Corporation of St. Louis, MO can help - their tire racks are made in the United States in their factories, and feature top quality steel and components, ensuring that the tires will be safely stored.  For more information, visit www.tier-rack.com today.

The Tire Industry Association’s Environmental Advisory Council (EAC) has issued best management practices guidelines for proper tire storage.

The document outlines the steps tire dealers must take in storing tires to maximize the service life of their inventory, TIA said.

“If tires are not stored correctly, it may result in the loss of performance as prolonged exposure to outside forces like heat, direct sunlight and ozone can affect the integrity of the materials,” TIA said.

The document includes guidelines for outdoor and long-term storage of vehicles, TIA said.

This is the seventh best management practices compilation TIA has drafted, covering handling, transporting, recycling and/or disposing of materials important to tire dealers, including tires, used oil, fluids, degreasers and batteries. All available for free download at www.tireindustry.org.

If you need shipping containers for tires, Tier-RackR Corporation manufactures a folding rack for the economical return of the racks.

Used Tire Racks

Whether you call them tier racks, stacking racks, pallet frames, portable stack rack, tire racks, diamond tops, nestable racks or stackers, Tier-Rack has a portable storage solution to fit your requirements.

We have served thousands of companies in the tire, automotive, retail, agricultural, construction and building materials, textile, and food industries for over 50 years providing many types and sizes of portable stack racks.

Tier-Rack specializes in both the purchase and sale of used rack including used tire rack, pallet stacking frames, stack rack, used pallet racking, used warehouse rack, stacking bins, nestainer style racks and other material handling equipment throughout the U.S., Mexico and Canada. These items include our own Tier-Rack® frames, Load-Nester®, as well as brands from other rack manufacturers like Jarke, Steel King and others. Please enjoy browsing our online selection of used items for sale. If you have used material handling equipment you would like to sell, let us know and we can pay you cash for your used inventory!

However you store your tires, flat, on tread or laced, Tier-Rack can provide tire rack storage that won’t break your budget. Tire Racks were our original product, and the tire industry continues to be one of our important markets. While the 60” x 60” rack is still the most popular size, we also make many other sizes to meet your specific tire stacking rack needs.

Here are some of the different types of tire racks Tier-Rack can produce for you.

Choose the style of tire rack that works best in your operation. Add  perforated deck that meets fire codes by allowing water from overhead sprinklers to pass through to the stack racks below and protect the side walls. The ratio of holes to solid deck gives good support to the tires and will not leave marks on the tires in the portable rack.

Another style of stacking rack uses wire mesh decking. This decking is less expensive than perforated metal decking and has larger openings in the deck. This is a good option if your tires are in and out of your warehouse rack frequently and the wire deck doesn't have time to leave marks on your product. Naturally, the least expensive portable stack rack for tires has no decking at all. The inner and outer rack beams are located so they support the tires. This works best if you do not have people standing on the rack as they load or unload the tires, since the rack beams do not provide as secure a work surface as a deck does.

Our center post Tier-Rack® tire stacking frame is a popular alternative for those who appreciate the ease of loading and unloading tires when there are no obstructions on the corners of the stack racks. These tire racks are also the least expensive storage solution for tires  available. The frames easily attach to your existing warehouse pallets and will hold loads of 2,000 pounds per pallet when the racks are stacked five high.

If you need shipping containers for tires, we make a folding rack for the economical return of the LacingTiresempty racks. Since the posts are not removed from the rack, there is no concern about losing some posts during the return trip. As with all of our varieties of tire racks, these can be made for any size and load capacity that you need. These shipping racks can be designed with or without decking to meet your needs.  They are strong enough to withstand years of use and material handling.  The tire and rack combination is what all tire distributors must have to store tires effectively

A tire retailer needs many things in his warehouse, but the most important product that they can purchase is a stacking tire rack.  Tier-Rack Corporation, of St. Louis, is the nation's number one provider of tire racks, including both stacking and retail-ready racks, in the nation.  They are also the inventors of the Stack Rack, the unique stackable storage solution that has made warehouse functions run smoothly since 1955.  This knowledge and experience makes Tier-Rack the choice for any warehouse needs, including tire racks.

Finding the right warehouse tire rack is just as important.  Some companies need permanent structures, large, imposing racks that stay in one place and hold their cargo for years.  Other companies require more portable racks, allowing for the warehouse to be configured in different ways and for different stock to cycle through according to season and volume.  Tier-Rack can accomodate both of these needs, giving companies the safety of knowing that they have bought just the right storage rack for their company, and that they are made in the USA of the highest quality materials.

If you give Tier-Rack Corporation a chance to bid on your storage solutions, they will find both the price point and quantity that your company needs to store tires in their warehouse effectively, and the support and help of Tier-Rack's sales, manufacturing and engineering teams at each step of the process.  Contact them today at www.tier-rack.com and call (800) 325-7869 to talk to a sales consultant today.

Every company that stores equipment, whether it's tires or baby food or board games or whatever, needs their own specific kind of storage solution.  These come in many forms, from baskets to bins to racks.  Every company has their own specific needs, and Tier-Rack Corporation has a way to store anything.  Take tires, for instance.  Tires require specific racks to store them safely, racks designed with decking and spacing to allow the tires to be stored without warping them.  The racks can also stack, enabling companies to use the vertical space of their warehouses to effectively store their wares.  This sort of storage flexibility is what makes a warehouse function effectively.

Finding a way to balance the needs of the company with the available storage space is the ultimate warehouse challenge.  This is true of tires as well as any other product.  The product needs to be accessible and safely stored, including safety for both the employees and the product, and this balance must be maintained to ensure a properly functioning warehouse.  Tier-Rack only uses American-made steel in their racks, which are manufactured at their plants in the U.S. to exacting specifications.  Customers can rest easy knowing that Tier-Rack has built their racks with the gauge of metal that they were quoted, and we encourage customers to weigh the racks themselves - we'll give you the specs and you can see for yourself that our product stacks up.

Please, let us bid on your warehouse racks.  We are confident that our manufacturing expertise, in-house engineering and U.S. based manufacturing plants will let your company save money on your storage solutions, as well as to help you receive the best rack for your money.  Visit us at www.tier-rack.com and call (800) 325-7869 to setup an appointment, or to ask us anything about our manufacturing or engineering.  We're looking forward to quoting you and getting your warehouse in order.

Warehouses across the world have an issue.  As they need to hold more and more stock, the room gets harder and harder to find, which is why many companies are turning to stacking racks.  The advantages are apparent.  A stacking rack gives warehouse managers the ability to move products around the warehouse in order to keep rotating stock, and to move VERTICALLY, which is very important in the world of warehouse management.  

This verticality, plus the ability to configure your warehouse using different stacks of goods and finding ways to organize your materials with racks that stack in different configurations, makes the stacking rack the ideal way to run a warehouse environment.

Tier-Rack Corporation in vented the stack rack in 1955, and has been working to perfect and redefine the way that people use them, from storage to transport, in their warehouses and stores.  Any store, from a small Mom and Pop shop to a huge big-box store, can use the Tier-Rack stacking rack to keep their warehouses organized and moving efficiently.  Please give us the opportunity to bid on your rack needs, and find a way, through either our standard racks or a custom  made solution, to solve your storage needs.  Visit www.tier-rack.com today, and call 1-800-325-7869 for more information.

Running a warehouse is a complicated job.  Beyond the job of organizing schedules and keeping people on task, keeping the warehouse's stock accessible and safe is the main task.  Finding a balance between rotating old stock forward, keeping aisles clear, and ensuring that the stock is stored in a way that the items don't become damaged is very important.

This balance is especially important in warehouses that store tires, such as tire shops, big box stores, auto repair shops, and any business that repairs their own vehicles.  These warehouses need to have their stock accessible, as their customers need to have their vehicles fixed, and moving the customers in and out quickly can make all of the difference in staying open and going out of business.  Tires also have to be stored correctly physically to keep them from warping, which can lead to blowouts and lawsuits.

Tire Racks are an important part of the tire industry, keeping the wheels protected and in the same shape that they come in and need to be sold in.  These racks need to be precisely engineered to withstand the weight and hold the tires up so that they don't warp and twist, or wear on one side.  Tires can also flatten if left in the wrong position for too long.  These racks need to be made to do their job properly, and sadly, this isn't always the case. 

While many companies manufacture racks, not as many manufacture them well, and it's not a very well-regulated practice.  Many overseas companies will use inferior metals, and not provide the gauge that's promised, because they know that companies that look for the cheapest price often won't check the quality.  However, it's vital to make sure that the rack you order is the rack you receive.  Always make sure to get a few things spelled out in the quote. 

• Load Ratings
• Stack Heights
• All Tubing Gauges
• Rack Design Details
• Empty Rack Weight

Other companies will often use inferior tubing, with smaller gauge, and not inform the buyer of the 12 week lead time they require to fill your order. due to sea container shipping so that they can save costs.

It's also important to check on the racks once they arrive.  Demand in the order to know the weight, then weigh them when they arrive.  Make sure that they are checked for the areas that aren't seen, like at the weld spots, where companies will skimp on the weight.  These trouble spots are easy to miss upon visual inspection, but can be spotted if the racks are weighed carefully and checked.  It also is a good idea to check on the actual manufacturing address, to make sure that the racks are made in the US, not in China.  Often, it's Chinese-made racks that are the most cheaply made, so if they come in an overseas container, you can assume that's their point of origin.  Some other common problems are:

• Dealers or distributors posing as rack manufacturers
• Inferior overseas material and workmanship
• Quoting lighter gauge tubing
• Quoting the correct tubing and then delivering lighter gauge racks
• Omitting rack tags indicating manufacturer and safe load limits

Let us show you how our years of manufacturing experience can provide you with quality car tire racks at a very affordable price. We buy steel tubing directly from the tube mills in truckload quantities. Then our talented and efficient teams in our low overhead production facilities transform the steel tubing into high quality portable racks that have been designed to meet your needs.

As the weather changes, and Spring starts to warm the roads and get people traveling and enjoying the outdoors, tires need to be replaced.  The harsh winter weather, with its icy, slick roads that tear up tires and the salt that wearss down the integrity of the tire, can cause damage to the tire that people don't necessarily see.  This means many blowouts as rubber that had constricted during the winter cold expands in the spring warmth, showing the cracks and crevices that have developed during the cold months.  How can your company be prepared for the onslaught of tire needs that crops up during these important times of the year?

Tier-Rack Corporation has the answer.  Their custom made tire racks give retailers and companies that store their own tires, such as bus companies, construction companies, rental car companies and the like, the ability to have tires on-hand, stacked comfortably and safely, and in easy reach of your employees, without the dangerous high stacks that can cause accidents and injury.  Tier-Rack stacking racks, created by Tier-Rack in 1955, are the perfect solution for the problem of stackable property, particularly a product as malleable and easily ruined as tires.  While a rack can't help the temperature a=that you store tires in, it can ensure that not too much weight is placed on the tire, keeping it balanced properly until it's pulled off of the shelf.  This is invaluable in keeping the tires safe, and keeping you from having blowouts on your watch.

Most people look at a tire and see a solid rubber circle, perfectly created from bonding rubber to steel treads, that helps convey your vehicle from one place to another, protecting the car from being torn apart by the asphalt it travels on. They are a barrier between successful travel and disaster, and make the highways the safe, comfortable method of travel that they are today. However, tires are not indestructable.

There are many factors that go into the life of a tire. Wear patterns, depending on the driver, can be a factor. Weather that the vehicle is driven in are a factor. External factors, such as debris (nails, glass, other road debris) can score or puncture a tire at any time, whether they are brand new off the showroom or threadbare.

There is one factor that comes before all of these, however, and that is storage. How a tire is stored has a massive effect on the life and durability of a tire. The temperature for storage must be termerate, as too hot or too cold can expand and contract the rubber causing it to weaken and crack. Also, how the tire is held in the storage rack is important. Ahile there needs to be holes in the decking to allow water through in case of fire, the holes must be properly spaced in order to keep the tires from developing flat spots and patterning, both of which can lead to blowouts and dangerous driving situations. Tier-Rack has the solution for this, with their custom-made tire racks!

Tires can be a difficult thing to manage.  They're thought of as sturdy, rugged products, that are used to hold up your vehicle and keep you moving along.  In reality, they're fairly fragile, and if not taken care of properly, can warp easily, and a warped tire creates a dangerous situation where a blowout can occur.  This is a concern for tire manufacturers, tire resellers, and repair shops, or anyone who deals in them.  It also can hurt companies that store tires for their own vehicles, such as bus companies, construction crews, and companies that can't afford down-time with flats and blowouts.

Finding the right balance of storage and accessablity for tires is a major concern.  This creates a tipping point for companies, where the convenience of storing the tires in a way that the tires can be quickly pulled from the shelves may outweigh the need for the tires to be stored in a way that they can't warp or deform.
