1. Umhverfisaðstæður eru einnig stórt atriði. Flest vöruhús starfa undir-loftkælingu og lýsingu. Ef um er að ræða mikla hitastig þarf sérstaka notkun á beltum, legum og drifeiningum. Þó að vörugeymslan sé í tiltölulega hreinu umhverfi gæti færibandakerfið þurft að tengja hreinna svæði við erfiðara umhverfi (svo sem svæði fyrir úrgangspappírskassa). Sum atriði verða að vera einangruð út frá heilsu- og öryggisþáttum. Þessir þættir munu einnig hafa áhrif á hönnun flutningskerfisins og geymslusvæðisins.
All goods handling equipment require different levels of maintenance. For gravity systems, regular inspections are usually only required to ensure that the rollers rotate normally. In more complex systems, the manufacturer should provide regular maintenance measures. Generally, companies have fixed maintenance personnel for expensive manufacturing equipment, but they don't think there is such a need for the equipment in the warehouse and ignore it. In fact, in the preliminary planning stage, for the complex handling system, the maintenance cost must be included in the procurement budget, and the maintenance requirements must also be included in the system selection and evaluation considerations.

Because the surface of the conveyed goods is in direct contact with the conveyor, the characteristics of the goods directly affect the choice of equipment and the design of the system. The characteristics of the conveyed items, including size, weight, surface characteristics (soft or hard), processing speed, packaging method and center of gravity, are all factors to be considered.
