Smarter Warehouse Storage

Machines That Help Optimise Storage

Space is one of your most valuable assets in the warehouse — and one of the easiest to waste. Without accurate parcel and pallet dimensions, racking space is used inefficiently, aisles become blocked, and picking speed slows down.

That’s why more warehouse managers are asking: “How can I optimise storage and get more from my existing space?” The answer is simple — with automated parcel measuring machines like Parcelcube dimensioning systems.

Why Storage Space Gets Wasted

In many warehouses, wasted space isn’t obvious until you look closely. The main culprits are:

  • Inaccurate data: Staff guess sizes, leading to poorly planned slotting.

  • Empty air in racks: Shelves don’t match product sizes, leaving wasted gaps.

  • Oversized items: Bulky goods block pick paths or take up more space than necessary.

  • Inefficient stacking: Pallets and cartons aren’t optimised because dimensions aren’t exact.

The result is higher costs and slower throughput.

How Dimensioning Systems Optimise Storage

A Parcelcube system ensures every item is stored in the right place, in the right way.

  • Exact volume data: Capture the true size of every parcel or pallet in seconds.

  • Better slotting: Assign storage based on actual dimensions, not estimates.

  • Improved racking efficiency: Fill shelves more accurately, reducing wasted space.

  • Faster picking: Clearer layouts and optimised paths improve staff efficiency.

  • Smarter planning: Volume data supports warehouse redesign and future space forecasting.

Real World Benefits

Businesses using Parcelcube for storage optimisation often see:

  • Reduced wasted space across racks, bins, and pallets.

  • Lower storage costs by maximising capacity before expansion.

  • Improved throughput thanks to cleaner, more efficient layouts.

  • Better vehicle loading as accurate dimensions help optimise outbound freight.

FAQs – Warehouse Storage

Can Parcelcube help me optimise racking space?
Yes. By capturing exact parcel dimensions, you can assign storage slots based on real data rather than guesswork.

Will it improve picking efficiency?
Yes. Accurate slotting creates clearer layouts and better pick paths, reducing wasted travel time.

Does it work for both cartons and pallets?
Yes. The Parcelcube 900 is ideal for smaller parcels, while the Parcelcube 1000 handles large freight and palletised goods.

Can it support my WMS storage logic?
Yes. Data can be exported directly to WMS and ERP platforms, helping optimise slotting and racking algorithms.

Will it also help with vehicle loading?
Absolutely. The same volume data used for storage planning can also optimise outbound loading, reducing wasted truck space.

Is it only for large warehouses?
No. SMEs benefit just as much. Even a small warehouse can save thousands per year by improving space efficiency.
