In the last decades, the terminology regarding the logistic infrastructural objects warehousing property has been applied rather freely in business and professional scientific literature. Therefore, we cannot get an objective assessment of the volumes of warehousing logistics infrastructure market. Various companies provide different interpretation of the objects of transformation centers and market analysis have substantial gaps. The lack of correct actual open information eliminates an opportunity of making right decision on: 1) defining the location spots for transformation centers; 2) synchronization of transport flows with warehousing opportunities; 3) correspondence of qualitative characteristics of transformation centers and the needs of companies operating the material flows; 4) correct calculation of investment indicators by the projects of purchase and/or construction of objects; 5) defining the wax base. In this paper the terminological interpretations of the concepts inherent in the various types of transformation centres, such as logistics centre, distribution warehouses, fulfilment warehouse, terminal, hub, etc, are clarified. Transformation centres were considered in two ways: like objects of real estate and types of economic activities. There is a widespread classification of the warehouses, which divides all types of warehouses in the market of real estate into 4 groups. However, this classification has no legal mean in Ukraine. In spite of this fact, a lot of commercial companies (firstly, retailers and logistics providers) use it for researches of current demand on the warehouses in the different regions in Ukraine. They do it in spite of legal document such as «The classification of the building and facilities of Ukraine». It includes all types of building - living spaces and non-residential premises - and concretizes their definitions. Furthermore, the international companies, which operate as a commercial real estate services firms, use their own classification and definitions of the objects of the warehouses. In such a way, we cannot obtain a right understanding about developing of logistics infrastructure. We have no idea about warehouses that offer services like fulfilment operations or have cross-docking facilities. The real estate firms in Ukraine see such operations not like just activities but like a single part of warehouse property. In the article the objects of warehouse real estate are defined depending on requirements of Ukrainian legislation and the needs of business companies. The conclusions are presented in the form of proposals to solve the abovementioned tasks. 
warehouse, transformation center, fulfillment, terminal, distribution center, logistics center, cross-docking
