What is the weight capacity of a mobile pedestal?

Standard commercial mobile pedestals support 40–50 lbs per drawer for box drawers and 40–60 lbs for file drawers (matching hanging file load ratings). Total unit weight capacity is typically 120–180 lbs. Heavy-duty steel pedestals can support more. Overloading file drawers — particularly when multiple drawers are open simultaneously — can tip a pedestal, so anti-tip features matter.
