A system for moving a shelving system includes a lifting system that is operable to engage a section of a shelving system with a lifting element and to move the section of the shelving system upwardly or downwardly relative to a ground surface. The system also employs a moving device that is positionable between the shelving-system section and the ground surface when the lifting device moves the shelving-system section upwardly. The moving device also receives the section of shelving system onto a receiving area when the lifting device lowers the shelving-system section. The at least one movement component allows the at least one moving element to move relative to the ground surface. A lifting system for lifting a shelving system may include a jack and a lifting bracket that couples operation of the jack to upward or downward movement of the shelving-system section.

1. A lifting system for lifting a shelving system, the lifting system comprising: a jack with a lifting portion, the jack being operable to move the lifting portion upwardly or downwardly relative to a ground surface,a lifting bracket having an integral feature for mating with a corresponding feature on the lifting portion of the jack such that the lifting bracket is removably coupled to the lifting portion of the jack, the lifting bracket comprising a lifting element disposed at an end thereof, the lifting element comprising a first portion projecting from the lifting bracket in a first horizontal direction generally parallel to the lifting bracket, the lifting element further comprising a second portion projecting from the first portion in a second horizontal direction generally perpendicular to the first horizontal direction, both the first portion and the second portion projecting at substantially identical heights relative to the lifting bracket, the lifting element being configured to extend at least partially around (i) a side of a leg of the shelving system and (ii) a front or a back of the leg of the shelving system such that the lifting bracket is configured to removably engage a section of a shelving system with the lifting element and couple operation of the jack to upward or downward movement of the section of the shelving system relative to the ground surface, the lifting element being positioned forward of the lifting portion of the jack to engage the section of the shelving system. 2. The lifting system according to claim 1, wherein the lifting bracket further comprises a support member, the lifting element projecting from the support member, the support member and the lifting element combining to engage the shelving system, the lifting element applying an upward force on the section of the shelving system during upward movement of the lifting portion, and the support member configured to be adjacent to and to support the shelving system during upward movement of the shelving system. 3. The lifting system according to claim 2, the section of the shelving system being positioned on one side of a leg of the shelving system, the leg contacting the ground surface and supporting the shelving system, and the lifting element and the support member being configured to be positionable on opposing sides of the leg, the support member being configured to provide vertical support for a face of the shelving system and the lifting element being configured to extend below the section of the shelving system. 4. The lifting system according to claim 1, further comprising a receiving structure coupling the lifting bracket to the lifting portion of the jack. 5. The lifting system according to claim 4, wherein the receiving structure includes a receptacle, and the lifting bracket includes a projection that is removably received by the receptacle when the receiving structure couples the lifting bracket to the lifting portion. 6. The lifting system according to claim 5, further comprising an extension positioning the lifting element away from the projection and at the section of the shelving system. 7. The lifting system according to claim 5, wherein the receiving structure includes a positioning guide guiding the projection into the receptacle when the projection is removably received by the receptacle. 8. The lifting system according to claim 5, further comprising a housing coupled to the jack, the housing limiting upward movement of the lifting portion. 9. The lifting system of claim 1, further comprising a housing coupled to the jack, the housing including a storage receptacle configured to receive at least a portion of the lifting bracket when the lifting bracket is removed from the lifting portion of the jack. 10. A lifting system for lifting a shelving system, the lifting system comprising: a jack including a base, a lifting portion configured to move relative to the base, and a lifting block coupled to the lifting portion, the lifting block including a lifting block feature; anda lifting bracket, the lifting bracket having a first end with a lifting bracket feature integrally formed thereon, the lifting bracket feature configured to receive or to be received by the lifting block feature such that the lifting bracket is removably coupled to the lifting block, the lifting bracket further including an opposing second end having a generally vertically oriented support member extending therefrom, the first end of the lifting bracket being disposed at a first height and the second end of the lifting bracket each being disposed at a second height, the first height being substantially the same as the second height, the support member having a lifting element projecting therefrom, the lifting element comprising a first portion projecting from the support member in a first horizontal direction generally parallel to the lifting bracket, the lifting element further comprising a second portion projecting from the first portion at a second horizontal direction generally perpendicular to the first horizontal direction, the first portion and the second portion being disposed at a third height different from the first height, the lifting element being configured to contact a bottom of the shelving system and to extend at least partially around (i) a side of a leg of the shelving system and (ii) a front or a back of the leg of the shelving system. 11. The lifting system of claim 10, wherein the lifting bracket feature is a downwardly extending coupling member and the lifting block feature is a receptacle configured to receive the lifting bracket feature. 12. The lifting system of claim 11, wherein the lifting block further includes a positioning guide configured to guide the lifting bracket feature into engagement with the lifting block feature. 13. The lifting system of claim 10, wherein the lifting element is configured to apply an upward force against the shelving system when the lifting system is operated. 14. The lifting system according to claim 10, further comprising a housing coupled to the jack, the housing limiting upward movement of the lifting portion. 15. The lifting system of claim 10, further comprising a housing coupled to the base, the housing including a storage receptacle configured to receive at least a portion of the lifting bracket when the lifting bracket is removed from the lifting block.
