I found nice 5-shelf wire racks at Walmart for $40 ea.
36"Wx16"Dx72"H,
black finish. Each shelf is rated for 200 lbs evenly distributed.
They have levelling screwcaps on the feet. "5 Shelf Multi-Purpose Rack"
by NSF is what the box says. UPC 0 34886 00012
I didn't volunteer any information because it's been a few years
since I acquired mine.at Costco (it doesn't seem to be in their
online catalog now) and I've not seen any offered at any of the big-
box stores locally.
It's termed "Double Rivet Shelving". You put it together with a
hammer--no bolts. Mine was purchased as two sections 36"Hx18"Dx36"W,
and you join them with a shelf beam to form a 72"H unit. 5/8" HD
particle board shelves. I don't recall the ratings, but I'd be
surprised if it was less than 500 lbs per shelf. Here's some:

These things are heavy, BTW; probably about 60+ lbs for each unit.
Indestructible by way of normal human endeavor.
