Advantages of Mobile Storage Units Versus Permanent Storage Units

In the past, people were only used to permanent storage facilities, where you had to deliver your items to the storage facility physically. But as the storage industry continues to expand, new storage services have emerged. One of the latest storage ideas is the use of portable storage units.

Portable storage involves dropping off and picking up storage containers from a client’s location and transporting their belongings at a storage facility. However, before you hire your Wilmington mobile storage containers, it is important to know the difference between the two storage options. In this article, we will discuss the advantages of mobile storage units instead of permanent storage units.

Delivered to Your Location

Permanent storage units require you to physically deliver your belongings to the storage facility or hire a moving truck to deliver the items for you. But with portable storage containers, the storage company will deliver the container to your location, leave it there for you to pack all your belongings carefully, and then pick it up from there when everything has been packed. This not only saves you time but also saves you money because you only pay the storage fees.

Avoid Expensive Long-Term Contracts

Permanent storage facilities require you to enter into a long-term storage contract with them, which is often expensive, especially when you need the storage services for a short period. But with a portable storage unit, you do not need to sign a long-term contract, especially if you only temporarily need storage services. The contract you sign is only for the time you will be using the storage unit. There are different rates, depending on your storage needs, including daily, weekly, and monthly.

Saving You Money

With portable storage units, you won’t have to hire a moving truck to deliver your items to and from the storage facility. The storage company takes care of the transport. This also saves you the time to do other important things. If you are hiring storage services for your work equipment, you won’t have to spend extra money transporting your tools and machine to and from the construction site every day.

Ground Level Loading

Since the portable storage units are delivered to your location for loading, they can only be loaded at ground level. This eliminates the need to use the risky and challenging loading ramps that can easily cause serious damage to your valuables. With our Wilmington mobile storage containers, you get a chance to load all your belongings carefully and ensure everything is securely packed in the container to avoid damages during transportation.

  • This was hands-down the easiest moving experience! With 3 small children we needed an option that would allow us to stow at our own pace and without countless trips to a storage unit... and Badger Box delivered. The box was clean, secure and was delivered to the new house without a single item shifting in transit. Steven and Chris were both incredible to work with --- bottom line - we highly recommend!

  • Chris, Stephen and crew were absolutely amazing to work with! Wonderful with communication. They made my moving a million times easier without having to worry about my belongings until I got in to my new spot! Would highly recommend over and over again.

  • These guys are amazing. This was the perfect solution for my move! Chris, Steven and all the folks at Badger Box Wilmington went above and beyond to meet my moving needs! I used four pods and moved from a large historic home. The boxes were clean and the guys made sure they were level. Watching them deliver or pick up a box is fascinating. I hope I never move again, but if I do, I know who I will be calling! Thank you guys, you are lifesavers in more ways than one! ♥️

  • There is a reason people rate this business so high- because they really do show off the best qualities of local small business! The customer service is more like dealing with a friend and the transportation of the box was flawless! They have this very cool robotic box mover that was able to get our box in the perfect spot- plus it's just cool to watch! The box itself was perfect for our needs during our home reno. We had it for 5 months and everything inside stayed perfect, not even a trace of musty smell! I would absolutely refer them over any of the "big brand" storage companies. Go Badger Box you won't regret it!! 🙂
