Why You Should Consider a Shipping Container for Storage

Shipping containers are best known as the metal boxes most often seen at ports and airports, carrying goods around the world. However, shipping containers can also be used to store items of all kinds, from business materials to personal possessions. If you’re looking for an efficient way to store your stuff, you should consider using shipping containers as storage units instead of traditional self-storage facilities or garages and sheds. Here are just some of the reasons why shipping containers make great storage units, as well as some questions you should ask yourself before choosing this kind of storage unit over others.

Advantages of Using a Shipping Container

It’s important to note that shipping containers are not just used as storage solutions. Shipping containers as living spaces, office space and even green homes. So what are some of their benefits? First, let’s look at how they stack up against on-site storage. On-site storage has many advantages in terms of convenience and privacy. For example, you can access your belongings whenever you want, and no one will know if you don’t keep your site box locked.

Shipping Container Customization Options

One of the main benefits of shipping containers is their flexibility. You can choose whether you want to build out one container or an entire building and construct it yourself or leave it to professionals. Also, there are lots of different ways to get started: purchase an already-constructed container, have one custom-built in your desired shape and size, or buy multiple containers and modify them as needed. Choose a container design that will work best for your storage needs while maximizing whatever space you’re working with. As far as construction goes, you can hire a contractor to build out each container individually or go all-in and create one giant structure. If you opt for individual containers, they can be stacked on top of each other or placed side by side.

Cost and Value Comparison

In terms of storage space, traditional storage units are small in comparison to shipping containers. Most contain 25-50 cubic feet of space, whereas shipping containers hold upwards of 1,500 cubic feet. Though you can rent or buy large spaces to store your goods and possessions, it’s often more cost-effective and efficient to keep things contained inside a shipping container.

At Simple Shipping Containers, we understand the importance of getting your container to your location quickly and efficiently. That’s why we offer a variety of delivery options to meet your needs.

For 20ft containers, we use a roll back truck, the same type of vehicle used to transport cars. The container is loaded onto the truck and delivered to your location, ready for unloading.

For 40ft containers, we use a semi truck and trailer that tilts. This type of delivery requires a minimum of 120ft of space, as the back edge of the container will hang off the edge of the trailer. The container is then set down on the ground with the tilt deck and the truck drives forward, pulling the container down the deck and unloading it.

In addition, we can also provide wheels that can be locked into place on the corner castings of the container. This allows the container to be lifted from one end and moved like a trailer, making it easier to place in tight spaces. We work with a company that can also use a skid steer and the wheels to place the containers in even more challenging locations.

No matter what your delivery needs are, we have a solution that will work for you. Contact us to learn more about our delivery options.
