Shelving, Inc.
Since 1960
We have been serving the storage needs of business and industry since 1960. We pride ourselves in offering the finest quality storage products available, as well as providing added value with our design-build capabilities and after-the-sale support services. In our infancy, Jack Scholdowski (founder) combined his love of industrial engineering and sales to start a family business with his wife, Helen. He opened the doors of Shelving, Inc. in a two-story warehouse in Detroit, Michigan at the corner of Riopelle and Woodbridge. Jack developed a quality brand and instilled in the company a strong sense of pride and community. His goal was to assist customers in organization and space allocation by effectively using the best storage solutions available.
Now over 50 years later, Shelving, Inc. is still a family owned business, holding true to the same values and goals that Jack put forth. The company has moved to its current location in Auburn Hills, Michigan but we still remain loyal to our humble Detroit roots. As we all know, Detroit has seen its fair share of trying times, so we have partnered with the Capuchin Soup Kitchen in Detroit to help others in need. We happily donate 10% of our profit to Capuchin and spend time/donate products to help whenever we can.
The growing demand to reach customers all over the country prompted Shelving, Inc. to launch our first website, the one you are reading this on now, in 2004. The idea was to make industrial products available to the masses. With our overwhelming success online, we decided to market our products as a place for life’s stuff, the home. In 2007, a showroom was opened in Madison Heights as well as a website to reflect residential products, www.theshelvingstore.com. Today, the next generation of Schodowski’s have taken the reigns and are leading the company into our bright future.
Our staff is a small crew of talented people who are dedicated to helping businesses find storage products to suit their needs. We have a call center, design team, installation crew and sales titans who show the world why we rock.
