Amazon Warehouse Storage: A Costly Proposition

When it comes to eCommerce, storage space is the Holy Grail. Thanks to the explosion of online retailing, warehouses and fulfillment centers have been scrambling to keep up with demand but storage space remains a precious commodity.

Amazon has built one of the more extensive warehouse and distribution networks, but use of their facilities comes at a cost. The company's Fulfillment by Amazon service, designed for third-party sellers, has a fairly complex pricing system.

• Monthly storage fees are calculated based on the daily average volume in cubic feet of total product in the warehouse. Amazon uses its own formulas and they have final say on how measurements are determined, even if the results differ from your own data.

• In addition, there are different rates for standard-size and oversize products. While it might seem intuitive that standard-size rates would be lower, the opposite is true as Amazon cites the need for special configurations to store standard-size items. As a result, you end up paying top dollar for all products.

• Of course, rates increase during seasonal shipping periods, which can run up to triple the regular fees.

• Long-term storage is where you'll really feel the pinch. Twice a year, on February 15 and August 15, Amazon does inventory clean-up. Product in storage for six to 12 months is hit with a whopping $11.25 per cubic foot fee, which doubles for items held longer than one year.

If you're a small to mid-sized eCommerce company owner, you can see how this system eats into your profits. Add in Amazon seller and fulfillment fees and you're looking at razor-thin margins.
