Shelving unit

A vertical shelving unit comprising:

• vertical posts arranged to define a three-dimensional space and each extending longitudinally;
• sets of transverse support member coupled to at least some of the vertical posts on opposing sides of the three-dimensional space and comprising bin support portions extending towards each other into the three-dimensional space, defining a corresponding opening between transverse support members of each set;
• and
• storage bins disposed within the three-dimensional space and each comprising a lip, wherein the vertical posts and the sets of transverse support members are configured such that the storage bins are each suspended by their lip entirely by bin support portions of a corresponding support member set from the sets of transverse support members such that:
• the storage bins are spatially distributed such that each storage bin is individually laterally translatable through the corresponding opening along the corresponding support member set, and
• the vertical posts are free of bin supports from a top of at least one support member set of the sets of transverse support members to a next upwards transverse support member supporting at least one of the storage bins, such that at least one storage bin of the storage bins supported by the at least one support member set is translatable upwards, from the at least one support member set, within the three-dimensional space.
