Use a stock management software (I provide one but cannot provide details due to UKBF limitations). By typical convention each CELL in your warehouse or storeroom has a location or BIN number associated with it and you maintain accurate records of what is in each cell IN / OUT and you reconcile it regularly with STOCK CHECKS and make manual adjustments if you find creep in the records. Just give each ROW/COLUMN and BIN its own ID and then its much easier to keep records of what is in each bin or storage unit of area. You can even use Excel effectively for something as small as you have cited.
