  Private Warehouse - This type of warehouse is owned and operated by a company that is also involved in other aspects of the distribution channel. For instance, a major retail chain may have several regional warehouses supplying their stores or a wholesaler will operate a warehouse at which it receives and distributes products.

Public Warehouse - The public warehouse is essentially space that can be leased to solve short-term distribution needs. Retailers that operate their own private warehouses may occasionally seek additional storage space if their facilities have reached capacity or if they are making a special, large purchase of products. For example, retailers may order extra merchandise to prepare for in-store sales or order a large volume of a product that is offered at a low promotional price by a supplier.

There are several reasons which make a company select a public warehouse over a private one or vice versus. Many small or middle sized businesses do not have the extra monies to have their own storage facility, so their best and/ or only choice for their overstocked merchandise is to contract a 3rd party warehouse facility. This gives them the opportunity for growth and/ or expansion while at the same time the extra space needed with a warehouse staff available to properly man this inventory. However, large corporations, such as Wall Mart and Kmart have the revenue available to have their own warehouses, thus keeping its revenue, from the initial supply to the process of distribution, in- house. They have their own trucks that transport goods from one location to another, etc. The above reasons for using a public or private warehouse have to do with the size of the company needing the storage and its amount of revenue on hand that can be used to either lease a public facility or own a private one. This factor makes all of the difference.

A public warehouse is available for hire on a variable term basis and oftentimes will have multiple customers' products at a time. Some are specialized to deal with specific items or functions. Private warehouses are operated by the company that owns the product being stored within the warehouse. The company does not necessarily own the building (though the larger companies may choose to buy the building and land also) but does own all the products that come in and go out.
