Question
On private land with firm ground.
You can store your container on private land with a hard, level base. Gravel, paving, or concrete work well. The corners take 500 kg of weight each, so soft ground sinks over time. Some rental firms offer to store your container at their depot for free. Public roads need a permit in most areas.
Did you know?
Many containers are stored in places that were never designed for storage. Construction sites, farms and industrial yards often use containers because they provide secure space without requiring a permanent building. Related questions

- Can the delivery driver put the container in the exact spot I need?
- Do your delivery drivers have any specific access requirements?
- Can you drive across a field for delivery?
- Are there restrictions on what I can do inside my self storage rental unit (drilling, grinding, sawing wood, etc.)?
