Convenience

Renting a shipping container for storage is an incredibly convenient option for individuals seeking a simple alternative to traditional storage facilities. They require little to no additional work and arrive when and where you need them. You can rent the storage container for as long as you need. When you find that you no longer need your container, it will be promptly picked up and taken away for you.

Cost Effective

If you are unfamiliar with renting a shipping container for storage or haven’t done it before, one of the first questions that may come to mind is cost. Many are surprised to find out that renting an entire shipping container is cost effective. While it is difficult to compare prices of traditional storage methods, (such as storage units) due to size differences. However, you will often get more value out of the shipping container, especially when considering convenience.

Low Maintenance

Renting a shipping container for storage purposes requires little to no setup or maintenance over time. If there is a problem with the container, the company you rent from will handle things. When renting a shipping container from GetSimpleBox, your container will arrive in good shape, or we will promptly take care of any issues for you.

Durable

Depending on where you live and the time of year, inclement weather may be a problem. In order to protect the items you wish to store, it is best to think about a durable solution. Shipping containers are built to withstand inclement weather and keep your belongings safe and secure. These containers are designed to protect goods in extreme wind, cold, and rain which makes them an excellent choice when deciding how you should protect the belongings at your house or property.

Mobility

One of the biggest benefits to renting a shipping container, especially from Get Simple Box, is how flexible you are able to be when moving or transporting your personal items. Your rented shipping container can be picked up at your location and transported with everything inside. No reloading or hassle involved.

Save Space

Another great benefit to utilizing a shipping container for storage is how much space can be saved. For example, a 20 foot standard shipping container gives you 160 square feet of storage space, while a 40 foot container will provide you with 320 square feet of space to work with.  Additionally, if you are considering adding on to an existing building or structure, this may be the best option for you to save both money and space.

Security

One of the greatest benefits of renting a shipping container is the security they provide. Not only does the container protect your belongings from natural elements, your items will be kept out of view and a powerful lock will be provided by the company you rent the shipping container from.
