How much does Simpl Fulfillment charge for storage?

Simpl Fulfillment charges storage by warehouse storage type, per month: $3 for a small bin, $5 for a large bin, $15 for a shelf and $40 for a pallet. Storage is billed separately from the per-order fulfillment rate, which starts at $7 per order, and it's based on the storage type your inventory occupies, not per unit, per SKU or per cubic foot.

What that means for your monthly storage line

  • A few slow-moving SKUs that fit in bins cost $3 or $5 a month per bin. Case-pack inventory held on pallets costs $40 a month per pallet, so four pallets come to $160 a month before any orders ship.
  • Storage is based on the storage types your inventory occupies each month, and fulfillment is billed per order shipped.
  • The storage type each SKU uses depends on how much space it takes up. Ask Simpl to confirm the storage types and monthly storage charge for your inventory before you send it in.
  • All storage is ambient, in Simpl's one warehouse in Austin, Texas.

How storage fits with the per-order rate

The per-order rate, starting at $7 per order and priced by weight, covers up to three picks, packing, packaging and postage. Storage is a separate monthly charge on top of that. The Simpl pricing page walks through the per-order rate and the monthly minimum. For how other 3PLs quote storage and the ranges they typically charge, see our 3PL fulfillment cost guide.
