Most warehouses provide storage, inventory management, packing, shipping, and sometimes product handling like labeling or assembly.

Warehouses vary in size and storage capabilities, often measured in square footage or pallet spaces.

Items are typically stored by category, SKU, or client specifications, with racking systems and climate controls when necessary.

Many warehouses have surveillance cameras, alarm systems, and access controls to protect stored goods.

Most warehouses operate during standard business hours but can vary based on location and service agreements.
