The Quick Answer –Should Your Business Use Dynamic Or Static Storage?
If you are searching for storage solutions where you want to store a high volume of items for a long period of time, a static setup would likely be more useful. However, if you would like to designa storage facility in which products will frequently be sent out for fulfilment, a dynamic area will be more advantageous.
The Difference Between Static And Dynamic Storage Areas
In static storage environments each product is assigned to a specific area, whereas in dynamic storage, product locations and fluid and as such are subject to change.Neither method of storage is outright better than the other; however certain situations do make one particular method more advantageous. This means that in order to maximise efficiency of your warehouse operations, you need to consider which method of storage would be best suited to your business.
For example, whilst static storage systems create easy to navigate environments, even with high stock counts. However, this does come with downsides, as if you need to quickly replenish stock from a static storage warehouse, you might find that it takes significantly longer to do so due to the nature of static storage setups. On the other hand, dynamic storage is fantastic for picking efficiency. Through the use of forward pick systems, the amount of time it takes to collect products can be greatly reduced.

With regards to dynamic solutions, you could opt for a bull stack pallets system which could help you to maximise the available space, however you could alternatively choose a double deep system which has a relatively low cost.
