Exploring Shipping Container Storage Solutions with PRO-BOX: Types and Size Options
Shipping containers have become a highly versatile solution for storage in recent years. PRO-BOX understands the increasing demand for durable, secure, and flexible storage options. That’s why we offer a range of shipping container rentals suitable for both moving and storage needs.
Common Container Sizes
Shipping containers are available in several sizes and types to meet different storage requirements. They are both affordable and commonly inquired about, with options for new (one-trip) and used conditions. For detailed differences, please click HERE.
The most common sizes we offer include:
20-Foot Containers
This size is one of the most popular, striking a balance between adequate storage capacity and ease of transport. It is well-suited for storing the contents of a small apartment or office.
40-Foot Containers
Ideal for larger storage needs, these containers can house the contents of a typical 3-4 bedroom house, making them an excellent choice for businesses that require storage for significant volumes of inventory or equipment.
40-Foot High Cube Containers
These containers provide an additional foot of height compared to standard 40-foot containers, offering extra vertical space for bulkier items.
For those with long-term storage needs, purchasing a shipping container can be advantageous, as it allows for ownership and customization. However, for short-term or flexible storage requirements, renting a container from PRO-BOX may be a more practical solution.
Specialty Container Types
Beyond the standard options, PRO-BOX offers specialty container types to accommodate unique needs that regular containers may not fulfill. These specialty containers are typically available only in new condition and may not always be in stock. However, we can usually arrange for one to be ordered and ready for pickup or delivery within five days of payment.
Some frequently requested specialty container types include:
20' Double-Door Containers
These containers, measuring 20 feet in length, feature doors at both ends for convenient access. This design facilitates easy loading and unloading, allowing for access to items without unpacking the entire container. They are ideal for businesses requiring frequent access to goods and are also well-suited for personal storage where flexibility is necessary.
40' Double-Door Containers
Spanning 40 feet in length, these containers provide ample storage space along with double-door access at both ends. They are particularly suitable for businesses with extensive inventories or for moving large quantities of goods. Their size makes them a perfect choice for long-term storage solutions requiring easy access.
20' High Cube Containers
These containers have the same base dimensions as standard 20-foot containers but offer an extra foot of height, reaching 9'6". This height is beneficial for storing taller items or for maximizing storage capacity in smaller areas. Their additional vertical space lends itself to creative uses, such as conversion into office spaces or workshops.
20' Open-Side Containers
Similar in size to standard 20-foot containers, these units feature a side that opens fully, allowing for broad access. This configuration is perfect for side loading oversized items, making them ideal for construction equipment or retail settings where frequent access is necessary.
40' Open-Side Containers
Expanding on the open-side feature, these larger containers provide extensive side access along with significant storage capacity. They are designed for maximum flexibility in commercial operations, such as pop-up shops or exhibit displays, where easy access to items is crucial.
