Frequently Asked Questions — Cadaver Storage Racks & Mortuary Lifts

What is a cadaver storage rack?

A cadaver storage rack is a tiered frame system designed to hold body trays inside a mortuary cooler or body storage area. Available in 2 through 5-tier configurations with end loading, side loading, and multi-directional options.

What is the difference between end loading and side loading racks?

End loading racks slide body trays in from the foot end — ideal for narrow cooler configurations. Side loading racks slide trays in from the side — better for wider coolers with open lateral access. Multi-directional racks accommodate both orientations.

How many bodies does a 4-tier rack hold?

One 4-tier rack holds 4 bodies. Three 4-tier racks inside a 10×10 walk-in cooler provides 12-body storage capacity. Call 1-888-792-9315 to configure the right rack count for your cooler size.

How fast do cadaver storage racks ship?

In-stock racks and lifts ship within 3–7 business days via freight to all 50 states and Canada. See our Ready-to-Ship Equipment page for fastest availability.
