From Stock Arriving to Orders Despatched — How Our Warehousing Works

Our warehousing service is fully integrated with our pick and pack and fulfilment operation — meaning your stock moves seamlessly from storage into orders without any manual transfers, delays or additional handling.

Step 1

Goods-In & Receiving

Your stock arrives at our Nottingham warehouse by pallet, carton or parcel. Our team unloads, counts and inspects every delivery against your purchase order or ASN, flags any discrepancies immediately and books the inventory into our WMS — making it live on your dashboard from the moment it’s received.

Step 2

Scanning & Put-Away

Every incoming unit is barcode-scanned into our WMS and allocated to a storage bay. SKUs are stored in clearly labelled, organised locations that minimise pick time and reduce the risk of mislocation. High-velocity SKUs are stored closest to the pick and pack area for maximum efficiency.

Step 3

Live Inventory Visibility

From the moment your stock is put away, you have 24\/7 access to your live inventory dashboard. Monitor stock levels by SKU and pallet, set low-stock alerts, download inventory reports and view inbound and outbound movements in real time — from any device, anywhere.

Step 4

Integrated Pick & Pack

When an order arrives from your Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon or eBay store, our team picks directly from your storage bays — no stock transfer, no handling delay. Orders are picked, packed and despatched the same day for all orders placed before the 2pm cut-off.

Step 5

Stock Replenishment & Reporting

As your inventory is depleted, low-stock alerts notify you (and your account manager) in advance so you can arrange replenishment before you run out. Monthly inventory reports show your average pallet occupancy, inbound and outbound movements and stock-turn metrics to help you manage purchasing more effectively.

Onboarding took less than a week, our WooCommerce integration was live on day one, and we haven't had a single mis-pick in over six months. The live inventory dashboard gives us visibility we never had before. Highly recommend for any brand scaling past 500 orders a month.

Warehousing & Storage — Your Questions Answered

Common questions from UK brands about our warehousing and storage service. Call 0115 646 1101 or email 3pl@emfh.co.uk to discuss your specific storage requirements.

Storage is charged on a per pallet position per week basis — meaning you only pay for the space your stock actually occupies. As your inventory fluctuates seasonally, your storage cost adjusts accordingly. Smaller quantities can be stored per bay rather than full pallets. There are no minimum storage commitments, no fixed bay allocations and no penalties for reducing your footprint. Goods-in receiving and put-away is charged separately on a per-pallet or per-unit basis. We provide a full written quote before any stock is received.

No. There is no minimum storage period and no minimum stock quantity at EMFH. You can store as little or as much stock as you need, for as short or as long as required. Storage is charged weekly, so if you receive a large shipment and turn it around quickly, you only pay for the weeks it was in our warehouse. This flexibility makes EMFH particularly well-suited to seasonal businesses, importers and brands with variable inventory profiles.

We store the vast majority of consumer goods including: fashion & apparel, health & beauty, cosmetics & supplements (ambient), electronics & tech accessories, home & garden, toys & gifts, sports & fitness equipment, and ambient non-perishable food products. We cannot currently store goods requiring refrigeration or freezing, controlled drugs, Category A flammable or hazardous materials, or items requiring a firearms licence. If you’re unsure whether your product is suitable, contact us and we’ll advise.

Our Nottingham warehouse operates 24\/7 CCTV coverage throughout the site, keycard controlled access (no unauthorised entry), intruder alarm systems and regular security patrols. Every inbound and outbound movement is logged in our WMS with timestamps and operator IDs, creating a full audit trail for every unit of stock. High-value stock can be stored in a dedicated secure area — speak to your account manager during onboarding.

Yes. All stock stored at our Nottingham warehouse is covered by our goods-in-storage insurance policy. We recommend clients also maintain their own stock insurance covering the full retail value, as our policy covers EMFH’s liability as a bailee rather than full replacement value. Full details of our insurance coverage are available on request. We also operate strict fire safety protocols and regular sprinkler system checks throughout the warehouse.

Absolutely — we actively encourage client visits. You are welcome to visit our Nottingham warehouse by appointment to inspect your stock, meet your account manager and see our operation in action. Many clients find a warehouse visit the most effective way to build confidence before committing their entire stock to EMFH. To arrange a visit, email 3pl@emfh.co.uk or call 0115 646 1101. We are located at 133 Glaisdale Drive West, Bilborough, Nottingham NG8 4GY — 10 minutes from J26 of the M1 with free on-site parking.
