I stumbled across these freebies but I have no clue how to use them? I have 5 total. Any ideas?

The baskets are 37 x 16, the rack stands 67" tall.

You could make some boxes or divided boxes that fit into the baskets. Even a 1/4" plywood bottom in each basket would add to their versatility. By the way, I see that this is your first post. Welcome to the Garage Journal.

Plywood or masonite bottoms would extend there usefulness for catch-all shelves for the lawn shed or the shop loft.

Awesome rack to put in front of the forced air heater to dry out gloves and hats in the winter after they get snowy/icy/wet.
Also good rack for holding spray cans.

Looks like they'd be great for storing portable power tools, like circular saws, drills, etc. Just be careful of how much weight you put in them - if they were originally designed to hold hotdog buns in the grocery store, they might not hold up to heavy duty storage. Are there any labels on the back/bottom that describe the weight capacity?

Also, you might be able to find different brackets to fit those standards for regular shelves, if you don't like the baskets. Or find matching standards to screw into the wall to clear up some floor space.

Line the shelves with cardboard and make a portable work station out of it.

Something like this… bottom shelf old parts, next shelf new parts, next shelf tools, top shelf misc other stuff including a cold beer. Might want to beef up the casters and store a case a beer on the bottom to lower the center of gravity.
