Standard containers

Standard containers are the most common and reliable choice for our Philly customers. They come primarily in 20ft and 40ft lengths and serve a wide range of storage, construction, and creative-use needs. No matter if you’re working on a home project or running a small business, these are a smart place to start. We offer 20ft and 40ft standard containers:

• 20ft standard containers

A 20ft container is perfect when you need a smaller, secure solution, especially in tight city lots or for short-term needs during renovations. For businesses, they’re a great way to store inventory, tools, or supplies securely on-site, helping to keep things protected from both unpredictable weather and potential theft. Their compact size also makes them ideal for mobile setups, small workshops, or temporary offices in locations where space is limited.

• 40ft standard containers

Need more room to work with? A 40ft container gives you just that. This larger space offers the flexibility to create container homes or a fully functional on-site office. In a city where space is at a premium, the ability to maximize every square foot—indoors or out—is a major win. These are also a top pick for contractors, artists, or community organizers looking to build out longer-term storage or creative space solutions.

• 40ft High Cube Containers 

A 40 ft High Cube container is a taller version of the standard 40 ft unit, offering an additional foot of vertical clearance for extra storage or cargo capacity. Our 40ft high cube containers are available in both condition : New and Used. A perfect fit for storing tall equipment, stacking materials, or even transforming into a creative space without feeling cramped.

Specialty containers for unique Philadelphia projects 

It is quite obvious that standard containers don’t fit every job. Some projects need easier access, more headroom, or just more flexibility overall. That’s where our specialty containers come in. Let’s discuss them in more detail and explore what they have to offer. What makes them so versatile for unique projects?

High cube containers (20ft) 

Offered exclusively in new condition, our 20ft high cube containers deliver an additional foot of height beyond standard units. And in a city like Philadelphia, where space is tight and every inch matters, that extra headroom means a lot. Whether you're working on a compact build in the city or storing equipment in the suburbs, the added vertical space gives you more flexibility for interior layouts, better airflow, and extra room for lighting, insulation, or shelving. 

Open side containers

Open Side containers, available in 20ft standard and 40ft high cube (new only), are a great choice when you need easy access along the entire side. If you're setting up a display or unloading bulky items, having that full side opening makes everything a whole lot easier. And in Philadelphia, where the weather is pretty unpredictable and can turn in a flash, being able to get in and out quickly without struggling with tight spaces is a real game-changer.

No matter the size or type, our containers are built to handle Philadelphia's changing seasons, urban density, and wide range of project needs. If you’re a homeowner, contractor, or entrepreneur, we’ll help you find the right container to fit your space and your vision.
