Frequently Asked Questions

New containers (also called "one-trip") have made one voyage from the factory and are in like-new condition. Used containers have been in service for several years but are still wind and watertight, making them a cost-effective option for storage.
We deliver using tilt-bed trucks that can place your container exactly where you need it. You'll need a flat, accessible area that's at least the length of the container plus 20 feet for the truck to maneuver.
Permit requirements vary by location. Many rural areas don't require permits, while cities often have regulations. We recommend checking with your local zoning office before ordering.
