Before you pay
- Ask the monthly rate, the minimum term and whether delivery and pickup are one fee or two.
- Check the lock type (lock box) and whether insurance for your goods is included.
- Measure the drop spot: a 20ft container needs about 60ft of straight clearance for the delivery truck.
- Read the contract for damage, cleaning and late-return fees.
Questions
Is it cheaper to rent or buy a storage container?
For short jobs (a few months) renting is usually cheaper. If you need the box for more than about a year to a year and a half, buying is often cheaper — compare a 12-month rental total with the delivered purchase price.
Do I need a permit for a rental container?
On private property, many towns allow a temporary container for a set number of days; on a street or sidewalk you usually need a permit. Check with your city or HOA first.
How long can I rent a container?
Most companies rent by the month with a 1-month minimum. Some offer lower rates for long leases.
