Abstract
A plurality of racking systems are adapted to store palletized cartons in a refrigeration unit or the like prior to shipment of the cartons to market. Each racking system comprises laterally spaced overhead support platforms having their inner ends suitably spaced apart to provide a clearance accommodating the entrance of an extended mast of a lift truck therein. Upper groups of palletized cartons are loaded and stored on the platforms, next followed by the depositing of lower groups of palletized cartons within a lower storage space located at ground level.
