Portable Storage Container Delivery for Bristol, TN Military Families
At Go Mini's of Johnson City, TN, we deliver portable storage containers directly to Bristol, TN addresses, so service members and their families don’t have to haul belongings across town to a fixed facility. Military relocations rarely follow a clean timeline. Orders shift, temporary housing gaps appear, and move-in dates stay uncertain until the last minute. Our container model is built around exactly that kind of unpredictability.
We’re locally owned and operated, serving Bristol and the broader Tri-Cities area. Because Bristol straddles the Tennessee-Virginia state line, we work with families on both sides of the market. Whether you’re inbound, outbound, or somewhere in between, we can put a container at your door and hold it as long as you need.
Ready to get started? Call (423) 556-6495to schedule container delivery around your PCS orders or deployment timeline.
How Our Military Moving Process Works
Our process has three steps, and every one of them works around your schedule rather than ours.
Book Your Container: We bring the portable storage container to your Bristol location at a time that fits your schedule.
Pack at Your Own Pace: You load the container with no deadline pressure. This matters when orders shift dates or your receiving address isn’t confirmed yet.
We Deliver to Your New Doorstep: Once packed, we pick up the container and either deliver it to your new location or hold it securely at our facility until you’re ready.
Containers are ground-level for straightforward loading and unloading. We offer three sizes: 12-foot, 16-foot, and 20-foot, so you can match the container to your actual household goods volume. This self-managed approach also aligns naturally with a Personally Procured Move (PPM), where service members coordinate their own relocation and may receive reimbursement for qualifying move costs up to the government’s estimated cost of a contracted move.
Why Bristol Military Families Choose Go Mini's of Johnson City, TN
Being locally owned means our team responds directly to schedule changes. There’s no national call center routing your request through a queue when your pickup date shifts because orders arrived early.
Flexible scheduling: We work around PCS orders and deployment dates, including last-minute changes.
Transparent pricing: Competitive rates with no hidden fees.
Military discounts: Discounts are available at select locations. Call us to ask about pricing for active-duty service members and veterans.
Rental flexibility: Keep the container on-site or let us hold it at our secure facility. Short-term and long-term rental periods are both available.

Managing the Challenges of a Military Move in Bristol
A Permanent Change of Station (PCS) move frequently involves a gap between vacating one home and gaining access to the next. That gap can last days or weeks, and it’s rarely on the calendar when you start packing. We can hold your packed container at our secure facility for as long as that situation lasts. No trip to a fixed location is required.
Bristol’s National Guard presence, including personnel associated with the Bristol Armory, means local service members and their families are a real part of the community navigating these transitions. National Guard members and reservists sometimes face partial relocations or deployment-related storage needs that differ from a full PCS move. Both short-term and long-term rental periods are available to fit either scenario. If your receiving address isn’t secured, we hold the container. When you’re ready, we can deliver.

Go Mini’s Came to Our Rescue
When Hurricane Helene hit Northeast Tennessee, it hit Hampton, Tennessee, pretty hard. Our school - Hampton High School - survived, but had significant damage. For the next 16 months the Bulldogs would be attending school at the former Keenburg Elementary.
Teachers were not allowed to enter the damaged high school to retrieve any supplies, personal things, not even books. So, everything laid dormant until November 24, when we were allowed to go into our classrooms. We could retrieve anything we wanted to keep - everything else would be placed in a dumpster.
Imagine our surprise and worry - we could finally get our "stuff," but what in the world would we do with all of it until January 5 - our moving back home day? If you aren't a teacher nor have a teacher in your family - please understand: women teachers hoard everything! We were the ones running to our school to get our things...with no place to store them. We had a LOT of stuff!! None of us had storage space at home; we sure didn’t want to pack it in our homes to be an eyesore during the holidays. Furthermore, we did not wish to load it in our vehicles, unload it at our homes or somewhere, and then reload it for transport back to Hampton High in January. What a frustrating time! The holidays were coming up and we had all this stuff!!
This is where GO MINI'S of Johnson City came to our rescue!
A call was placed on 20th to the Go Mini’s office requesting a storage container for us. We spoke to Tyler Burner (our angel in disguise), and with no hesitation, Tyler was all in to assist us in our dilemma.
A storage container would be delivered to Hampton High School on Monday for teachers to use to store everything needed… at NO COST!! What an answer to prayers! GO MINI’s graciously allowed us to keep the container until moving day on January 6. Our things were securely stored conveniently at our school, giving all teachers easy access to retrieve them on our moving day.
During a challenging time, GO MINI’S gave the Hampton High School teachers not only a safe place to rely on, but also peace of mind. We are truly thankful for their generosity and support when it mattered most. Had it not been for their support and kindness, we would have been forced to leave behind many of our beloved belongings due to the lack of storage space at our homes. It was heartbreaking to even think of it all being trashed!
In our time of desperation, God sent angels to us through Tyler Burner and GO MINI’S. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Delivered Right on Time
After Hurricane Helene nearly washed away my family’s home and all the roads to get there, we needed a storage unit to move all the belongings out for protection from mold. We contacted several companies but when I got a call from Tyler, I knew this was the company. We needed to have it delivered in just a few days so he worked it out with a driver to make it happen. Even though there were no local options, and all the main roads were closed, Go Mini’s found a much longer route and delivered a larger unit right on time. We are so grateful we had the ability to safely move everything out while the house was cleaned and floors and walls were replaced over the last five months. Thank you so much for going hours out of your way to support us. Danyale
