Storage Fees
Deliverr charges a storage fee for each SKU with units in inventory in Deliverr's fulfillment network.
To compute a SKU's storage fee, you need the following:
- Unit's length, width, and height
- Number of units of the SKU in inventory
- Time in inventory
Deliverr's storage fees can depend heavily on all these factors, but they start at the following base rates:
In Inventory for 0 - 365 Days | In Inventory More Than 365 Days | |
---|---|---|
Base Storage Fee | $0.75 per cu. ft. / 30 days | $11.39 per cu. ft. / 30 days |
Fee Calculation
Unit Volume
To calculate the unit volume for a SKU, take the length, width, and height (in inches) of a single unit of the SKU. Multiply length x width x height to get the volume in cubic inches. Convert this volume to cubic feet by dividing by 1728 feet.
Round this volume up to the nearest hundredth to get the value on which Deliverr computes the storage fee.
Example: We have a SKU with units of dimensions 20" x 16" x 8". The volume in inches is 20 * 16 * 8 = 2560 cubic inches. In cubic feet, this volume is 2560 / 1728 = ~1.48148 cubic feet. We round this value up to 1.49 cubic feet. This is the volume on which Deliverr will compute the storage fee.
SKU Storage Fee
With the SKU's unit volume, number of units in inventory, and time in inventory, the SKU's storage fee can be computed.
For units in inventory for 0 - 365 days
Deliverr's storage fee is $0.750 per cubic foot* per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.025 per cubic foot* per day basis.
There is a per-SKU (not per-unit) minimum storage cost of $2.40 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.080 minimum fee per day basis.
For units in inventory for more than 365 days
Deliverr's storage fee is $11.390 per cubic foot* per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.390 per cubic foot* per day basis.
There is a per-SKU (not per-unit) minimum storage cost of $2.40 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.080 minimum fee per day basis.
Flow Chart
Examples
Example 1: 2500 units of a 10" x 6" x .25" SKU in inventory for less than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of .01 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.025 * 0.01 = $0.00025, and so the storage fee is $0.00025 * 30 = $0.0075 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU has 2500 items in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $0.0075 * 2500 = $18.75 per 30-day month, calculated as $0.625 per day.
This rate exceeds the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 2500 items) is $18.75 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.625 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $18.75 / 2500 = $0.0075 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.00025 per unit per day basis.
Example 2: 10 units of a 8" x 5" x 1" SKU in inventory for less than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of .03 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.025 * 0.03 = $0.00075, and so the storage fee is $0.00075 * 30 = $0.0225 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU has 10 items in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $0.0225 * 10 = $0.225 per 30-day month, calculated as $0.0075 per day.
However, this does not exceed the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 10 items) is $2.40 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.080 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $2.40 / 10 = $0.24 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.008 per unit per day basis.
Example 3: 100 units of a 10" x 4" x 2" SKU in inventory for less than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of .05 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.025 * 0.05 = $0.00125, and so the storage fee is $0.00125 * 30 = $0.0375 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU has 100 items in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $0.0375 * 100 = $3.75 per 30-day month, calculated as $0.125 per day.
This rate exceeds the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 100 items) is $3.75 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.125 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $3.75 / 100 = $0.0375 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.00125 per unit per day basis.
Example 4: 1 unit of a 18" x 18" x 10" SKU in inventory for less than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of 1.88 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.025 * 1.86 = $0.047, and so the storage fee is $0.047 * 30 = $1.41 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU only has 1 item in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $1.41 * 1 = $1.41 per 30-day month, calculated as $0.047 per day.
However, this does not exceed the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $2.40 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.080 per day basis). We can also say this unit has a per-unit storage fee of $2.40 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.080 per unit per day basis.
Example 5: 1000 units of a 12" x 6" x 6" SKU in inventory for less than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of .25 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.025 * 0.25 = $0.00625, and so the storage fee is $0.00625 * 30 = $0.1875 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU has 1000 items in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $0.1875 * 1000 = $187.50 per 30-day month, calculated as $6.25 per day.
This rate exceeds the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 1000 items) is $187.50 per 30-day month, calculated on a $6.25 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $187.50 / 1000 = $0.1875 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.00625 per unit per day basis.
Example 6: 2500 units of a 10" x 6" x .25" SKU in inventory for more than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of .01 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.390 * 0.01 = $0.00390, and so the storage fee is $0.00390 * 30 = $0.117 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU has 2500 items in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $0.117 * 2500 = $292.50 per 30-day month, calculated as $9.75 per day.
This rate exceeds the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 2500 items) is $292.50 per 30-day month, calculated on a $9.75 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $292.50 / 2500 = $0.117 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.0039 per unit per day basis.
Example 7: 10 units of a 8" x 2" x 1" SKU in inventory for more than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of .01 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.390 * 0.01 = $0.0039, and so the storage fee is $0.0039 * 30 = $0.117 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU has 10 items in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $0.117 * 10 = $1.17 per 30-day month, calculated as $0.039 per day.
However, this does not exceed the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 10 items) is $2.40 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.080 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $2.40 / 10 = $0.24 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.008 per unit per day basis.
Example 8: 100 units of a 10" x 4" x 2" SKU in inventory for more than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of .05 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.390 * 0.05 = $0.0195, and so the storage fee is $0.0195 * 30 = $0.585 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU has 100 items in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $0.585 * 100 = $58.50 per 30-day month, calculated as $0.0195 per day.
This rate exceeds the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 100 items) is $0.585 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.0195 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $58.50 / 100 = $0.585 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.0195 per unit per day basis.
Example 9: 1 unit of a 18" x 18" x 10" SKU in inventory for more than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of 1.88 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.390 * 1.86 = $0.7254, and so the storage fee is $0.7254 * 30 = $21.762 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU only has 1 item in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $21.762 * 1 = $21.762 per 30-day month, calculated as $0.7254 per day.
This rate exceeds the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 1000 items) is $21.762 per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.7254 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $21.762 / 1000 = $0.021762 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.0007254 per unit per day basis.
Example 10: 1000 units of a 12" x 6" x 6" SKU in inventory for more than 365 days
Using the volume calculation above, Deliverr will compute the item's storage fee on a per-unit volume* of .25 cubic feet. The daily storage fee for this item is $0.390 * 0.25 = $0.0975, and so the storage fee is $0.0975 * 30 = $2.925 per item per 30-day month.
This SKU has 1000 items in the network, and so the SKU's total storage fee is $2.925 * 1000 = $2925 per 30-day month, calculated as $97.50 per day.
This rate exceeds the $2.40 per 30-day month (or $0.080 per day) minimum, and so the SKU's total storage fee (for all 1000 items) is $2925 per 30-day month, calculated on a $97.50 per day basis). We can also convert this to a per-unit storage fee of $2925 / 1000 = $2.925 per unit per 30-day month, calculated on a $0.0975 per unit per day basis.
