How to Choose the Right Storage Container

Storage Volume & Dimensions

  • Estimate the amount you need to store to make sure everything fits in a 10-foot, 20-foot or 40-foot storage container without stacking materials unsafely
  • If you need frequent access to your storage container rental, size up to allow for aisles and staging space, not just the raw cubic volume
  • Always verify the exact dimensions of the container's door opening, as this can be a limiting factor for loading oversized or bulky items, even if they fit inside the unit

Stored Materials & Required Environmental Conditions

  • Identify contents, such as general goods, temperature-sensitive items or hazardous materials, when selecting a shipping container rental
  • Select refrigerated storage containers for precise climate control or hazardous material storage containers with enhanced ventilation and spill containment for dangerous goods
  • Ensure your chosen container provides continuous environmental protection, safeguarding contents from weather, temperature shifts or chemical exposure

Site Access & Security

  • Ensure there's room for truck access, overhead clearance for offloading and a level, stable site for container placement
  • For high-value or sensitive contents, choose PV3 storage containers with enhanced security features, or customize your container with Workspace Ready Solutions like locks and shelving
  • Position containers strategically to deter unauthorized access and ensure clear pathways for security checks or emergency response
