Great solution for remodeling
Friends for Animals Humane Society of Burke County is using the Go Minis of Hickory portable storage at our shelter. I watched the driver deliver it on our property and he was extremely professional and conscientious while placing the storage container. He made sure the container was expertly placed and leveled so that our contents were easily put into the container. This company is a great solution for our remodeling of our Wags to Riches store. It allows us to have on-site storage, for a temporary time, to get our project completed. Thank you so much from our fur babies and staff! 🐈🐕🐈⬛🐩
