In block storage, goods in boxes of cartons or pallets are stacked on top of each other and side by side in blocks without the use of shelving.
Brief description
For block storage, only pallets will suffice if the goods are stable and insensitive to compression. If the goods are unstable and compression-sensitive, box pallets must be used. This type of storage works well for uniform goods or for goods used infrequently.
Advantages
Variable, because it can be changed very easily and at any time
Relatively inexpensive, as no racking construction costs are incurred
