What counts as a “portable storage container”?
A portable storage container is a steel unit delivered to your home, business, or job site. It sits on your driveway, gravel pad, or prepared surface, and you load and access items on your schedule. When you’re finished, we pick it up. It’s flexible, secure, and eliminates the double-handling that comes with off-site drives.
Common use cases:
- Renovations & repairs — empty rooms quickly and keep fixtures/materials close at hand.
- Moves & staging — pack at a steady pace; hold items until your new place is ready.

- Small-business overflow — treat your property as a micro-warehouse for seasonal stock.
- Cottages & property management — short-term gear storage without building permanent structures.
Four components you’ll see on every quote
- Container Cost — based on size.
- Delivery — distance from our yard to your address and access considerations.
- Pickup — scheduled for the end of your term.
- Optional add-ons — lock box, shelving, or ground pads for soft surfaces.
How we keep it simple
- You receive a single written quote with each line item clearly labeled: delivery, placement, pickup, and options.
- We confirm address, placement spot, and door orientation in writing.
- If you’re comparing providers, this format makes side-by-side comparisons quick and fair.
Tip: When comparing, ask every provider to show delivery and pickup separately. You’ll know the true total in seconds.
A smooth delivery starts with a good plan. We combine a quick pre-delivery conversation with a simple driveway checklist so placement is predictable.
Our delivery process
- Pre-delivery call — You share your address, timing, and a driveway or site photo.
- Access review — We confirm approach angles, curb layout, and overhead clearance.
- Arrival & placement — The driver sets the container down where you prefer and checks level so doors work smoothly.
- Walkthrough — We confirm the pickup approach and share care tips (door swing, loading best practices).
Your driveway checklist
- Surface: Asphalt, concrete, or compacted gravel are ideal. Ground pads help on softer areas.
- Clearances: Plan for truck approach and set-down space; remove obstacles where possible.
- Overhead: Look for low branches or utility lines along the approach.
- Slope: Gentle slopes are fine; for steeper grades, we’ll use blocks so doors stay true.
- Door direction: Decide whether doors should face the house or the street to suit how you’ll load.
Tight access? Tell us in advance. We’ll discuss container size, angles, and the best way to get it exactly where you want it.
Weather performance
Our steel, weather-built containers are designed to keep contents dry and stable through changing NB conditions. Door seals manage wind-driven rain; level placement helps doors operate during freeze-thaw cycles. For multi-month placements, simple ground pads improve drainage.
Rodent-resistant by design
Sealed thresholds and minimal ground gaps help deter rodents. Combine that with sealed totes, clean floors, and no food storage to reduce risk further.
Practical security
- Lock-box option to shield padlocks from tampering
- Inventory basics—store higher-value items toward the back, use shelving, and label zones.
Permits & bylaws in New Brunswick (what to know)
Rules can vary by municipality and by how long the container stays in place. To save time, we provide an NB quick-check at booking:
- Temporary driveway placement for moves/renovations is often allowed; rules tighten for longer terms.
- Street placement or cases near sidewalks/rights-of-way may require approval.
- HOA/strata guidelines can add rules on visibility and duration—worth a quick look before delivery.
We’ll point you to the correct municipal office if a call is recommended. The goal is to avoid surprises and keep your project moving.
Choose the right size (pay for what you actually use)
7×10 — Great for apartments, focused renos, or a compact tool lock-up; fits most driveways.
7×13 — The versatile pick for family moves, kitchen/bath renos, and small-business inventory.
7×16 — Best for job sites, multi-room moves, or long-term staging; requires more approach clearance.
How to decide fast: tell us what you’re storing, how long, and where the unit will sit. We’ll recommend a size, show the cost difference, and let you choose with confidence.
This page focuses on on-site, portable storage delivered to your address. We also offer yard storage at our Saint John facility.
- Pick on-site when you want daily access without extra travel, prefer to load gradually, or need materials on hand.
- Pick yard storage when lower monthly rates and centralized access make more sense, and you don’t need the container at your door.
If you’re undecided, we’ll price both so you can compare clearly.
- Plan the load: heavier items on the floor and toward the front; stack light items above.
- Keep a center aisle so you can reach the back without unloading everything.
- Use shelving or pallets to improve airflow and organization.
- Label by room or task—boxes and totes move faster at the other end.
- Moisture control: avoid loading wet items; for long-term soft goods, add desiccants.
