I need some help with storage/storage fees
Im new to to Amazon FBA and after over a year I finally got started late last year. I noticed Amazon is charging me over $500 a month in storage fees. Does anyone know how I can reduce this if my product isnt selling? I wanted to have Amazon ship most of my product to me to reduce the fees but they say it can take up to 3 months and ill keep getting charged the storage fees until the transaction is complete. So im looking at about $3K just to have my products shipped back to me. Im looking for any help I can get at this time. Thanks

In fact you did the right thing by creating a removal order. And yes, this can take weeks or months, but slowly the rented space will decrease. Also, Oct/Nov/Dec the storage fees were much more expensive per m3. From January you will already see a smaller amount be charged. Unfortunately you can't do anything else than wait.

Hello @Seller_KgM7AQncogRmw,
Thank you for posting your inquiry. In this case, the information you received is accurate, removal orders could take 90 days or more to process and leave the fulfillment center and unfortunately,, this process cannot be expedited.
I've linked the help page that includes more detail on Removal orders if needed:
