Port-adjacent storage can be worth the premium for fast container turns. Inland storage usually wins when pallet dwell time and overflow inventory drive the economics.
Questions to ask a 3PL
- Is storage billed by pallet, cubic foot, bin, square foot, or daily snapshot?
- Are overflow, long-term storage, and peak season buffers priced differently?
- Can pallets be moved inland after devanning to lower dwell cost?
