Stacking Totes FAQs
What's the Difference Between Stacking Totes and Nesting Totes?
Stacking totes are designed to interlock and stack securely on top of each other when full, which is what you want for warehouse storage and order-picking shelves. Nesting totes are designed to collapse into each other when empty to save space on the return trip -- great for a closed-loop shipping cycle, but they generally can't be safely stacked full the way stacking totes can. If your totes live mostly on a shelf, go stacking; if they travel empty a lot, go nesting.
How Much Weight Can a Stacking Tote Hold?
It depends on size and wall thickness, but most industrial stacking totes handle anywhere from 40 to 150+ lbs of contents, with the stacked (loaded-on-loaded) capacity typically rated lower than the single-tote static capacity. Check the specific listing for both figures -- static capacity and stack capacity are usually reported separately because they're not the same number.
Are Stacking Totes Available in Different Colors or Are They Just for Organization?
Color-coding is one of the most common reasons buyers ask about this -- many of our stacking totes come in multiple colors, which is handy for visually separating SKUs, departments, or shift schedules on a warehouse floor. If you need a specific color or a matched set, let your rep know; color availability varies with what's currently in inventory.
Can I Buy Stacking Totes in Bulk?
Yes -- bulk orders are common, and we can usually get better per-unit freight economics on a palletized bulk order than on a handful of individual totes. Tell your rep the quantity you need and we'll quote freight accordingly.
