By Ericka Marsh


Edifices are constructed for commercial and residential reasons. The industrial activity which organizes the provision of space to store items is called Warehouse leasing. These items may be have private or public owners. Entities who usually use this service are importers and exporters, those in the business of transportation, manufacturers and others.

The location of a warehouse can either be in the countryside or municipal areas. The magnitude of a warehouse is warranted by how it looks as well as how mechanized it is. Bigger houses are known by their cranes and loading docks which are computerized or manually operated. These services came into being in the industrialization period, yet their existence stretches back further. They were once just small stores which were mainly for the purpose of keeping harvest and less mechanical tools.

The warehouses become meeting areas for large-scale importers and exporters, where goods are kept for the handling of tax and verification purposes. In this area packaging is done as well. The items are chosen, labelled, tested for legality and parcelled for transit.

Many popular storehouses are situated in airports, seaports and railways. These port area teeming with activity as they take in a lot of containers.
