Portable Storage Containers
Go Mini’s has the best Portable storage containers in the storage market. When you are ready to store some of your possessions, or are ready to move across town or across the state, Go Mini’s has Portable storage containers of the right size for you. We will deliver the container to your site, pick it up when you’re finished loading it, and return it to your site (old or new) whenever you are ready.
Of course, one of the critical steps in storing or moving your possessions is packing. This is surely the hardest and most annoying step, when you have packaged everything up and then haul it all around. While it might seem easier to make several small trips in your car, this is the least cost effective way of proceeding. Portable storage containers really are your best bet. At Go Mini’s, we deliver your container to you, and let you take as long as you need to pack it up. When you’re done packing, we’ll pick up your Portable storage containers and transport them either into storage, or to your new home, close by. Contrast that to the hassles of renting a truck for a short period of time, loading it up quickly and careening down the highway in an unfamiliar large vehicle.
When you pack your Portable storage containers, here are some tips to bear in mind. You want to think about weight distribution as you pack the container. The heavy items should be evenly distributed throughout the container; avoid clustering them in the front or back, or on the left or right side. All of your household items should be wrapped in cloth or paper. Items tend to rub against one another in transit – wrapping in paper will minimize breakage. Use foam or bubble wrap for breakable items. Heavier items should be on the floor; otherwise they become dangerous projectiles in your Portable storage containers.
Use ropes to tie everything down securely. You want to minimize shifting and falling during transit. Go ahead and mark up all the boxes you’re using, so that you’ll know what’s in what box without having to open them all up again. This way, the boxes can go directly to where they need to be at the new site. Secure padlocks should be used on Portable storage containers whenever they aren’t being looked after.
If there are items you’ll need early on, or often, make sure they are packed near the front and are easily accessible. Clean anything that’s dirty before packing into your Portable storage containers. Don’t over pack boxes by making them too heavy or fitting too much stuff into them.
Go Mini’s has all the Portable storage containers you need for your next move. With lengths of 12, 16, or 20 feet, we have a solution that best fits your needs. Our service puts you under no time pressure.
