Residential Portable Storage Solutions

What Is Residential Portable Storage?

Let’s face it, when your home’s in flux, you need more than a few plastic bins and a corner of the basement. Whether you’re remodeling, moving, or just clearing space without offloading your belongings, residential portable storage gives you control without compromise. With steel containers built for New England weather and flexible service from a trusted regional provider, it’s the smarter way to store.   Residential portable storage means a secure container delivered to your doorstep. Load it up at your own pace. When you’re ready, you can either keep it on-site or have us move it to a new location or store it at one of our facilities. Simple as that.   And we’re not talking about plastic tubs or glorified sheds. We’re talking about 20-foot and 40-foot steel containers; rugged, weather-ready, and ready to roll.

Who Needs Portable Storage?

If you’re working on any of the following, you’re likely already a good candidate for a portable container:  
  • Home renovations: Protect furniture from dust and chaos while your home gets a refresh.
  • Staging to sell: Clear out the extras and let your space shine for prospective buyers.
  • Seasonal storage: Free up your garage by tucking away summer gear or winter equipment.
  • Between homes: Bridge the timing gap with your things safe and accessible.
  • Urgent situations: Flood, fire, or fast-paced move? We’re quick and responsive.

Why Steel Containers Outperform the Rest

 

Not all containers are created equal and if you’ve seen the thin-walled plastic PODS® around town, you know what we mean. Our steel storage containers offer:

  • Heavy-duty protection: Built from high-grade steel, they stand up to rain, snow, and time.
  • Rodent-proof construction: No chewed boxes, no unwelcome visitors.
  • Walk-in access: Ground-level loading means no ramps or gymnastics.
  • Real space: A 20-foot unit fits a two-bedroom apartment’s worth of belongings—double up with 40 feet if needed.

How Storage Container Rentals Work

 

Great news – getting started is easy and fast.

  1. Choose your container size: 20-foot or 40-foot, based on how much you need to store.
  2. Schedule delivery: We bring the container to your location on your schedule.
  3. You load it: Take as long as you need. Really.
  4. We move or store it: Keep it on-site, have it delivered to a new address, or store it at our secure facility.
And because we operate throughout the tri-state region, your container isn’t coming from across the country. We’re right around the corner.
