1. How much space is required for delivery?

 

The amount of space required is minimal. For a 20' storage container, you will need approximately 80 feet of straight clearance. For a 40' storage container, you will need approximately 100 feet of straight clearance. The width requirement is approximately 10 feet, plus enough room for the truck to swing back into place.

 

2. How is the storage container delivered?

We deliver our portable storage units using a specially-designed rollback truck. We gently set one end of the storage container on the ground, then pull out from underneath it. Our representative will ask you if we should load the container with the doors facing to the cab or to the rear of the truck.

​

3. What type of payment is required upon delivery?

 

For rentals. We collect the first month's rent, plus delivery and pickup fees.

For purchase, we collect the total sales price including delivery charge and sales tax. We accept business checks, bank wire and major credit cards through PayPal. Our local bank is Regions Bank.

 

4. What type of modifications will you do?

We can add extra doors, windows, insulation, ac/heating when you purchase your storage container.

 

5. What if I want shelving?

We can provide shelving in many different configurations to suit your storage needs. Shelves can be installed in the container high or low, wrap-around or on just one side -whatever works for you. 8. How is my container protected? All of our new and used storage containers come equipped with a steel lock box welded to the outside of the unit. The lock box conceals and protects your lock from being tampered with.

 

6. How far do you deliver?

We can deliver anywhere in tri-state area. Our local delivery markets include North Florida and South Alabama.

 

7. Are the storage containers weatherproof?

Yes. We water-test all of our storage containers before they leave our delivery site to be sure they do not leak. The containers are completely enclosed and will keep wind and rain out so your contents always stay dry and secure.
