Whether you’re planning a big move or have a major renovation project in the works, temporarily storing your belongings outside of your home is often necessary to make the process as efficient as possible. Instead of dealing with the hassle of transporting your items to a self-storage site, however, renting a portable storage container has many benefits that often makes it the better option. Here are just some of the ways an on-site container can make a move or renovation less stressful.

Why You Should Rent a Portable Storage Container

1. Convenience

First and foremost, a portable storage container provides an extremely convenient way to store your items. Instead of making trip after trip to an off-site storage site, your chosen company will deliver the container directly to your home. Once you’ve stored all the necessary items, the container can be picked up and moved to your new home or simply stored on your property until your project is complete. The containers are also much easier to load than traditional moving trucks. You won’t need to awkwardly and difficultly hoist your goods up and into the back of a truck; the container provides easy and convenient ground-level entry to make loading and unloading much less strenuous. 

2. Security

Although many off-site storage sites take the necessary security precautions to keep your goods safe, there’s nothing like the peace of mind of keeping everything on your own property. After your portable storage container is delivered, you and you alone will have access to it. You’ll be able to securely lock up your items whenever you want, only letting the container out of your sight when it’s safely and conveniently transported to its destination. The containers themselves are also built to keep your items secure from a wide range of issues including break-ins and weather conditions. A&M Crane and Rigging also offers the ability to store your container in their highly secure lot if you are unable to keep the container on your property. 

3. Cost Effectiveness

Paying for professional moving services can quickly get more expensive than you planned. By renting a portable storage container, you avoid all of the labor costs associated with movers. Instead of paying a company to load, move, and unload every individual item, you’re simply renting the container itself — and potentially paying a reasonable fee for transportation. Additionally, you save the time and money it would take to transport your goods to an off-site storage location on your own.
