warehouse storage

Industrial inventory holding

Warehouse storage is the keeping of goods in a large building designed for that purpose.

The term often appears in commercial contexts where businesses need space beyond their own facilities: We moved the excess inventory to warehouse storage.

It may also refer to fees charged for such services: Warehouse storage costs are eating into our margins.
