Loose form materials can include liquid, food and minerals, such as stones and rocks, and metal items, such as bolts and nails.
6. Space Utilization: Organize your warehouse to maximize your available warehouse space. You can ensure your warehouse is organized by clearing warehouse aisles from clutter, stacking inventory to utilize vertical height and grouping products in the same category.
Non-automated storage equipment is typically limited to those that are not automated. These items can be grouped with engineered systems. The storage equipment is used to store or buffer materials during periods of "downtimes", or when they are not being moved. These periods can be temporary pauses in long-term transport or long-term storage that allows stock to build up. Most storage equipment is made up of pallets, shelves, or racks on which materials can be stored in an orderly fashion to allow for transportation or consumption. Many companies have developed proprietary packaging to help products or materials of a particular type conserve space in their inventory. This has allowed them to increase efficiency in storage equipment.

Storage equipment is usually limited to non-automated examples, which are grouped in with engineered systems. Storage equipment is used to hold or buffer materials during “downtimes,” or times when they are not being transported. These periods could refer to temporary pauses during long-term transportation or long-term storage designed to allow the buildup of stock. The majority of storage equipment refers to pallets, shelves or racks onto which materials may be stacked in an orderly manner to await transportation or consumption. Many companies have investigated increased efficiency possibilities in storage equipment by designing proprietary packaging that allows materials or products of a certain type to conserve space while in inventory.

Material handling systems and processes in a company are designed to improve customer service, reduce inventory and delivery times, as well as lower handling costs for manufacturing, distribution, or transportation.
There are many technologies and equipment for material handling that are manual, semiautomated, or automated. They can all be used to move, protect, store, and control materials and products through manufacturing, distribution, use, and disposal. These include:
Material handling devices are the machines that are used to make logistics work more efficient. These machines move raw materials, works in progress, and finished products, among other things. Many material handling devices are used at logistics work sites.
Material handling systems and processes that are well-designed reduce inventory, shorten delivery times, improve customer service, and lower manufacturing, distribution, and transportation costs. Material handling systems are used in a variety of industries, including aerospace, in addition to warehousing and storage.
Heavy loads should be placed on the lower or middle shelves. Long, tall, or top-heavy items should be stored on their sides or secured to prevent tipping. To access materials in higher locations, place ladders on stable, level surfaces and use stair platforms. Properly lift materials.
