Container Sizes in Dallas

Three Portable Storage Containers Sized for Any Move, Renovation, or Project

Picking the right container size before delivery day saves you from paying for space you don’t use or discovering mid-pack that you need more room. Go Mini's of Dallas offers three sizes: 12-foot, 16-foot, and 20-foot portable storage containers, each matched to a different scope of project. We deliver directly to your door, you load at your own pace, and we handle transport to your next location or store the container securely at our off-site facility until you’re ready.

As a locally owned and operated business serving the Dallas area, we built this guide to help you match the right container to your move, renovation, or storage need before you request a quote.

Go Mini’s Container Size Options

Each option below covers typical capacity and the kinds of projects it fits best. Use these descriptions alongside our storage calculator to estimate how much space your belongings actually require.

12-Foot Container

Our smallest option works well for focused, lower-volume projects. It holds the contents of a small-to-medium room, a dorm, or a studio apartment, with room for appliances like a compact refrigerator or a washer/dryer combo alongside outdoor equipment and miscellaneous belongings. If you’re clearing out a single room during a minor renovation, moving from an apartment, or decluttering before a sale, the 12-foot container is a practical fit.

16-Foot Container

Our mid-size option handles moves and renovation projects that span more than one room. It holds the contents of a moderately sized condo or apartment, including sofas, beds, dressers, and dining tables, making it a strong choice when you need to empty two or three rooms at once. Larger renovation scopes or a multi-room commercial storage need fit here too.

20-Foot Container

Our largest container is built for full-scale home moves, major renovations, and large storage needs. It’s versatile enough to hold everyday household items alongside bulkier belongings that wouldn’t fit comfortably into a smaller container. If you’re moving a larger home or clearing out an entire property for a significant renovation, this is the size to consider.

How to Choose the Right Size

Start by estimating the total volume of what you’re storing. Visualizing how your furniture and boxes would stack, or measuring larger items, gives you a working sense of scale before you commit. Bulky items like sectional sofas or large appliances take up disproportionate space and often push a project from a 12-foot container into a 16-foot container, or from a 16-foot container into a 20-foot container. If you’re unsure, our storage calculator can help you run those estimates, and our team is available by phone to talk through the decision.

What Sets Our Portable Containers Apart

Container size is only part of the decision. How the container is built and delivered affects how easy the whole experience is from start to finish.

Ground-Level Loading

All of our containers sit at ground level. There’s no ramp to wrestle with and no step up to navigate when you’re moving heavy furniture or appliances, which makes loading and unloading easier and less physically demanding.

Padded Wheels & Driveway Protection

Our containers arrive on padded wheels designed to protect your driveway and property during delivery and pickup.

Durable, Weather-Resistant Steel Construction

Every container is built from powder-coated steel with weather-resistant features that protect your belongings from the elements, whether the container is sitting on your property or stored at our facility. Advanced security features are built in to help keep your items secure throughout the rental period.

Flexible Rental Periods & More Usable Space

We don’t pressure you to return the container on a fixed schedule. Keep it as long as your project requires. Our containers also offer more storage space than many competing options in the same size category. Go Mini's of Dallas is locally owned and operated, which means you’re working with a team that values the relationship, not just the transaction.

Serving Dallas & Surrounding Communities

Go Mini's of Dallas delivers portable storage containers throughout Dallas and the surrounding area, including Garland, Grand Prairie, Irving, Mesquite, Plano, and Richardson. We work with residential customers moving across town or renovating their homes, and with business owners who need on-site or off-site container storage for commercial projects.

Off-Site Storage & Full-Service Handling

If you don’t have room to keep the container on your property long-term, we can transport it to our secure off-site storage facility and hold it there until you need it back. This full-service model covers pickup, storage, and redelivery on your schedule.

Need to retrieve something while your container is stored off-site? We can redeliver it to your property and pick it back up once you’re finished. Your belongings stay protected from the elements and secure throughout the entire period, whether that’s a few weeks or several months.
