Abstract: Warehouse managers in ports are responsible for managing and maintaining warehouses within the port, encompassing the receipt, storage, processing, and distribution of goods. They ensure the efficiency and safety of warehouse operations and comply with applicable regulations. This study aims to determine the management of warehouses in ports with limited land since maintaining environmental cleanliness requires careful planning and strategy. The approach employed is a descriptive-analytical method that utilizes primary and secondary data, including library studies. Here are some key considerations regarding the use of technology. Logistics: Implement a warehouse management system (WMS) and automation technology to maximize utility, utilizing high shelves, conveyor systems, and robots. Space arrangement: Make efficient arrangements by sorting goods based on frequency of use, size, and characteristics. Utilize vertical space: Leverage the warehouse’s height by installing vertical shelves or storage systems. Warehouse mapping: Create precise warehouse mapping to facilitate the search and storage of goods. Pollution prevention and environmental cleanliness: Ensure safe waste disposal by determining procedures that comply with environmental regulations, including separating waste types and implementing proper processing methods. Limited use of chemicals: Avoid using hazardous chemicals and opt for environmentally friendly alternatives. Prevention of leaks and pollution: Conduct routine inspections of equipment and storage tanks to prevent leaks and contamination. Cleanliness maintenance: Conduct routine cleaning of the warehouse and surrounding areas to prevent the spread of germs and odors. Use of air conditioning systems: Utilize a well-ventilated system to prevent the accumulation of dust and hazardous gases.
