The operation of a stacking storage arrangement of this type is configured to be economical. For this purpose, it is provided that, at least outside of the loading space, the loading vehicle can be moved in a direction which forms any desired angle with a direction that runs parallel to the rows. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A stacking storage arrangement comprising: a structure defining multiple container receiving spaces arranged in multiple rows and columns and a loading space, each of the container receiving spaces being configured to form a stack of containers; the container receiving spaces being configured to introduce the containers from below and are also configured to remove the containers from below; the containers are configured to be placed into the container receiving spaces and that multiple container are arranged on top of one another to form a stack; at least one loading vehicle configured to be movable into, and removable from, the loading space below the container receiving spaces; the loading vehicle is configured to be moved, at least outside of the loading space, obliquely to the direction of the rows and columns, forming an angle >0° with the direction of the rows and an angle >0° with the direction of the columns; multiple placement-into-storage/removal-from-storage arrangements are provided, at least one of which is arranged outside of an extension of a row; at least one placement-into-storage/removal-from-storage arrangement has at least one container transfer position for transferring a container from the placement-into-storage/removal-from-storage arrangement to the loading vehicle or vice versa. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 1, wherein: the loading space comprises an entry region arranged at front faces of the rows and/or columns. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 1, wherein: the loading vehicle is configured to be moved between rows in the loading space. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 1, wherein: the loading space comprises a driving surface), an extension of said driving surface extending outside of the loading space. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 4, further comprising: uprights and wherein the driving surface has a distance from a floor on which the uprights of the stacking storage arrangement stand, and wherein the driving surface continues into the floor in or in front of the entry region. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 5, wherein: the container transfer position comprises a tray beneath which an entry surface for the loading vehicle is arranged. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 1, wherein: a removal-from-storage arrangement is arranged in front of the entry region. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 7, wherein: the removal-from-storage arrangement is arranged between the entry region and a transfer element. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 1, wherein: at least one placement-into-storage arrangement is arranged in a region that extends parallel to the rows. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 1, further comprising: a controller provided to specify a position of a container in the container receiving spaces as a function of a turnover frequency of the container. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 10, wherein: the controller specifies a position of a container having a relatively higher turnover frequency in a lower region of a container receiving space. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 10, wherein: the controller specifies a position of a container having a higher turnover frequency in a column that is closer to the entry region than a position of a container having a lower turnover frequency. ### Claim 13 (depends on 10) The stacking storage arrangement according to claim 10, wherein: the controller determines the turnover frequency of containers dynamically during operation.
