Enter the length, width, and height of the warehouse into the calculator to determine the warehouse capacity.

Warehouse Capacity Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the warehouse capacity.

WC = L * W * H

Variables:

  • WC is the warehouse capacity (cubic feet)
  • L is the length of the warehouse (feet)
  • W is the width of the warehouse (feet)
  • H is the height of the warehouse (feet)

To calculate the warehouse capacity, multiply the length of the warehouse by its width and then multiply the result by the height of the warehouse. This will give you the total cubic feet of space available for storage in the warehouse.

What is a Warehouse Capacity?

Warehouse capacity refers to the total amount of space available in a warehouse for storing goods, materials, or products. It is usually measured in terms of square footage or cubic footage. The capacity of a warehouse can be influenced by several factors such as the layout of the warehouse, the type of storage systems used, and the size and shape of the goods being stored. Efficient use of warehouse capacity can help reduce storage costs and improve inventory management.

How to Calculate Warehouse Capacity?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Warehouse Capacity.


  1. First, determine the length of the warehouse (L) in feet.
  2. Next, determine the width of the warehouse (W) in feet.
  3. Next, determine the height of the warehouse (H) in feet.
  4. Next, gather the formula from above = WC = L * W * H.
  5. Finally, calculate the Warehouse Capacity.
  6. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

Length of the warehouse (L) = 10 feet

Width of the warehouse (W) = 20 feet

Height of the warehouse (H) = 15 feet
