The name can be anything that will help identify the service to you and your clients.

The service type needs to be set to "Item Storage Fees (Per Cubic Meter)".

The Per Unit Charge should be the amount that you would like to charge the client each month for each cubic meter of storage they are using.

Note: There is currently no way to charge based on cubic feet.

By selecting the “Advanced Options” you can also configure the charge for items stored in your warehouse longer than a specified number of days.

Make sure you click “Create Service” to save your changes.

Configure Item Dimensions

The cubic meter amount is calculated based on the dimensions set for each item. To view or change the dimensions of an item follow the directions here.

Configure Free Storage

By default, item storage charges are assessed based on the total quantity of items in your warehouse on the 1st of each month. If you would like to offer a time period of free storage before charges are assessed, you can do so from your account settings. Under Account Settings, in the Billing Settings section, you can set the days of free storage. This is 30 days by default.
