I use 1"x4" slats, with 2"-3" spaces, on 2"x4" frames.  A single shelf 
about 4' high.  Floor below the shelf is similarly slats on 2"x4"s.  
2"x4"s are on side so that the lost vertical space is about 3" for 
each of the two storage surfaces.  The back 2"x4"s (4" dimension 
vertical) is lag bolted to the cooler wall.  The front 2"x4"s (4" 
dimension horizontal) are supported by vertical 2"x4" about 2 box 
widths apart.  This has proven strong enough to support heavy crops 
(peaches) stacked to the ceiling.
