Resources are a core component of Workers & Resources, as it's even in the name. Almost everything in Workers & Resources requires resources to function, and if playing without unlimited money, resources are needed to export for money or construct infrastructure without using money. Almost all resources fall into one of four categories: aggregates, open storage resources, warehouse resources, liquids, and misc. resources that do not fall into any of these categories (i.e., meats, livestock, asphalt, and concrete). Meat and livestock require their own storage and transportation, while asphalt and concrete cannot be stored and must instead be manufactured on demand and transported via dump trucks and mixer trucks, respectively.

Aggregates

Stored in aggregate storage, transported in dump trucks, and via conveyor belts.

• Gravel
• Quarried stone
• Coal
• Coal ore
• Iron
• Iron ore
• Bauxite
• Raw bauxite
• Uranium ore
• Metal scrap

• Construction waste

Open Storage Resources

Stored in open storage, transported in open hull trucks, and via industry connections and forklifts.

• Steel
• Prefab panels
• Bricks
• Wood
• Boards
• Aluminium
• Uranium oxide
• Plastic waste

Warehouse Resources

Stored in warehouses, transported in covered hull trucks, and via industry connections and forklifts.

• Crops

• Explosives

Liquids

Stored in tanks, transported in oil tank trucks, and via pipelines.

• Oil
• Fuel
• Bitumen
• Liquid fertilizer

Fertilizer & Waste

Stored in Dumps, transported in open hull trucks and via factory connections.

• Fertilizer
• Mixed waste
• Hazardous waste
• Biological waste

Other resources

• Aluminium oxide: Stored in Dry bulk storage. Transported in dry bulk tank trucks.
• Asphalt: Can't be stored. Transported in open hull trucks.
• Cement: Stored in cement silos, transported in cement tank trucks, and via industry connections and forklifts.
• Concrete: Can't be stored. Transported in concrete mixers.
• Livestock: Stored in livestock halls, transported in covered hull trucks, and via industry connections and forklifts.
• Meat: Stored in meat storage, transported in refrigeration trucks, and via industry connections and forklifts.
• Nuclear fuel: Stored in heavy radiation protected storage at Nuclear fuel fabrication. Transported by containers on open hull trucks.
• Nuclear waste: Stored in heavy radiation protected storage at Nuclear power plant. Transported by containers on open hull trucks.
• Power: Can't be stored. Transported via electrical wiring.
• Sewage: Stored in Sewage tanks. Transported via Sewage trucks.
• Water: Stored in Water substation, Water tower or Water underground reservoir. Transported via Water trucks.
• UF6: Stored in radiation protected storage at Uranium conversion plant and/or Nuclear fuel fabrication. Transported by containers on open hull trucks.
