Where to get cheap racks?

I was wondering if anyone new were to get cheap rack systems? Like less than $300.:D

Your best bet will be to find a used one or build your own. Check on kingsnake and fauna to see if anyone in your area is trying to sale anything.
I recommend building your own.

How many tubs do you need?

Animal Plastic and Reptile Basics have racks for less than $300 but you will get 4 tubs max, so if you need more tubs building your own will be a better route.

Yea I was planning on building my own but if I would find one for the same price it'll cost me to build one then it would be better to just buy one.

Ill post some pics of my home made rack in a little bit... I just went to Ace hardware and bought a 5 shelf storage rack and you can adjust the heights on each level. I paid 80$ for the rack and it can fit 8 116qt tubs so you should be able to get plenty of tubs on there... I think its ridiculous to pay 300$ for a 4 tub rack when everything is plastic. These ones are heavy duty and you can adjust the size for baby tubs and adult tubs.

i paid 80$ for the shelf and 12$ per 116qt tub... thats around 200$

I think he hit a extra 1 ;)

I am building a 41qt rack now that holds 5 tubs for about $150 total. including flexwatt.

I already havea Helix and a Ranco to plug the rack into.

Just bought a small 4 tube rack from Reptile basics 234 bucks. its 31 quart tubs with heating and they dont charge shipping right now.
