• Relatively low initial cost.
• Virtually maintenance-free.
• Highly efficient for full case and/or split case picking.
• Saves labor costs: order pickers minimize walking, "hunting", reaching.  1 picker as productive as 3 or 4 using Static Storage.  Fewer pickers in fewer aisles require less supervision.
• Saves floor space: uses as little as one half the floor space of Static Storage.  Multiple aisles eliminated (only requires a "load" and a "pick" aisle).
• Automatic stock rotation: always first-in, first-out.
• Reduces congestion: picking in front, stocking in rear, with fewer workers.  Picking and restocking can be done simultaneously.
• Reduces product damage: product loaded once, picked once.  No "deep reaching" or moving goods to pick.  Less handling, less damage.
• Increases inventory control: stock quantity is always visible.
• Increases picking accuracy: more organized, compact picking area reduces picking errors.
