🏬 FBA Storage Fee Check
LIVE
Card rates: standard size $0.78 (Jan–Sep) / $2.40 (Oct–Dec), oversize $0.56 / $1.40. ⚠️ These could NOT be verified on Amazon's own page (it is behind a login); some sources say $0.87 rather than $0.78. If you know the rate on your own Fee Preview, switch to manual.
Batteries, aerosols, flammable liquids, perfume and nail polish count as dangerous goods and are stored in a SEPARATE facility at a SEPARATE rate. That rate is behind Amazon's login; rather than invent it, picking this opens the rate fields so you enter your own.
How many OF the total above have passed 181 days. Clothing, shoes, jewelry and watches are EXEMPT from this surcharge — leave 0 if that is your category.
Amazon charges this ON TOP of monthly storage, based on how much volume you send in against how much you sell (your utilization ratio) — so slow-moving stock is penalised twice. The ratio is specific to your account and appears under Seller Central → Inventory → Storage Fees; that is why it defaults to 0 and does NOT enter the total unless you enter it.
The default rates are Amazon US per-cubic-foot fees (the fields are editable — enter your own marketplace's rate).
Rounding: money lines are rounded to the nearest cent, and the total on screen is the sum of the lines on screen. The marketplace's own rounding can differ by a cent per line; in tiered rate cards the direction of that difference is not guaranteed.
Monthly storage cost (Jan–Sep, surcharges incl.)$52.00
Size tier → standard size (by dimensions): $0.78 / $2.40Volume / unit: 0.222 ft³Per unit / month: $0.17Q4 monthly (Oct–Dec): $160.00
Yearly (9 mo + 3 mo Q4): $948.00
A year is billed 9 months at the low rate + 3 months at the Q4 rate; multiplying the month by 12 understates the year by about a third. Amazon measures the OUTSIDE of the package. The dimensions are within the standard-size limits but the weight is unknown — the item can still be oversize on weight, in which case switch to manual and enter the oversize rate ($0.56 / $1.40). There are fields for the storage UTILIZATION surcharge (driven by how much volume you send in against what you sell) and the 181+ day aged-inventory surcharge; without a rate those lines stay "—" and do NOT enter the total.

10 September 2026 we made a correction to this calculator that changed its results: some fields accepted zero or above-100% values without warning.

The problem

Storage fees quietly eat your margin.

Rates roughly triple in Q4; sellers who don't plan for it lose money.

📦

Volume blindness

You can't estimate fees without knowing your cubic feet.

🎄

Q4 surprise

Oct–Dec rates are much higher; plan inventory accordingly.

🧮

Manual math errors

Inch→ft³ conversion by hand invites mistakes.

Features

Simple inputs, clear output.
