How Amazon stores your inventory

We store inventory either in bulk or in individual "pickup" locations. Media products are stored on library-type shelving in vertical, spine out positions with loose stacking to avoid "shelf wear." Specialty items like food or high-value goods may be placed in specific secure or climate-controlled areas of the fulfillment center as appropriate. .

Before you ship your products to Amazon, be sure to review FBA Inventory Requirements and FBA Product Restrictions.
