White Wire Shelving
 
We just moved in to The Villages a month ago. I am looking to add some more of the 12" deep white wire shelving that the builder installed in our closets and the pantry. I want the exact same type which is made by Rubbermaid, the logo is on the mounting brackets. Is anyone getting rid of some their wire shelving that I may have?

Welcome to TOTV. If you drive around on the night before garbage day you might find some along the curb. Lowes and Home Depot have it too.

The last time I checked, I could not find the exact same type of shelving from any source.

Did you try ACE, specifically the one on Wedgewood (near 466) they tend to have a lot of villages specific items, also look into amazon, no idea of shipping 12 foot sections.

I did check Amazon, Lowes, Home Depot, and the Rubbermaid website, but not ACE.

My house is 10 years old. Rubbermaid has changed the design of the fittings and brackets since then. Also the new house contractors buy so much in bulk it might be contractors grade stuff.

Check with me Late Monday. We are having new closets installed, we haven’t decided if we are going to use the old ones in the garage

Get rid of all your white shelving and get your closets professionally redone with shelving/hanging areas from floor to ceiling. DM me and I will give you the company we used to get it done (we used them because all of our neighbors used them).

Lowe's and Home Depot carry the Closet Maid brand of wire shelving. It is close, but not the same as Rubbermade. If you are looking to stay with what came in your home (Rubbermade), call Wayne Lovoy at Custom Closets, 352-702-5288. His company does installs on new construction, but he will sell you whatever you need for your job. Provide him with your sizes, and they will cut to length, deliver to your home, and provide all necessary hardware. The best news is his pricing is significantly less than the big box stores. He will charge you based on the lineal feet of shelving ordered. Good luck.

We replaced ours with 16", much more useful.

DIY Shelving
 
If you're going to install yourself just make sure you have good bolt cutters and good wall anchors. It's actually really easy to do, but "measure twice, cut once."

dcianciolo 07-02-2023 07:25 AM

Great info thank you very much.

Go to Ace
 
I just got some of the shelves from a friend and Ace carries the correct brand of HW and shelves

Lol OP is looking for free shelving I don't think spending thousands to have professional closet remodel is in the cards

retiredguy123 07-02-2023 07:51 AM

Get rid of everything that you haven't used in the past 12 months, and you won't need any additional shelving.

Thank you all for your input.

Talk to companies that install custom closets they take em out and toss or donate them.

RUCdaze 07-02-2023 01:47 PM

You are welcome to all the wire shelving I have in my garage. I don't know if it's what you are looking for, but I recently replaced it with 'Closets by Design,' and I don't know what to do with the old stuff from the original builder. Contact me at apetera215@gmail.com and come have a look.

Join the Facebook group Buy Nothing The Villages. I have seen a number of postings on that site from homeowners who want to get rid of their white wire shelving after replacing it with something else.

Check the habitat restore thrift store on Lone Oak Dr in Leesburg. They have had wire shelving at times. Price would be worth the visit.

We just bought a new house in Richmond and had the Master closet redone. I have the wire shelving in the garage and you can have it free. I’m out of town till 7/8. Call me. 8437081266. Mike

This Rubbermaid shelving eventually turns yellow and sticky, count on it.

Be super careful installing the wall bolts. Accidentally drilling into a power line or water line running in that spot could prove costly. Best investment might be a Walabot before beginning.

Hi - Did you decide on what you were going to do with the original wire shelving?

Very disappointed. The contractor who installed my closet was going to take the wire racks, but I saved them for you. Never heard from you now I’m stuck getting rid of them

Set them out at the curb the day before trash day. Bet they get picked up before the garbage truck gets there. :)
