A system for storing industrial drums in a manner allowing convenient dispensing of stored material contents from any of the drums during storage. The system comprises modular components which can be combined in a multitude of configurations to comply with drum storage requirements. When used in combination with means for retaining hazardous-material leaked from the drums or spilled during dispensing, contamination of the environment and/or injury to workplace personnel is prevented. The components of the invention direct the leaked or spilled material to the hazardous-material retaining means. Storage of "hazardous material" as well as other materials is accomplished in a safe and convenient manner.
