Shipping Containers for Sale and Rent in Blaine, MN
New and used 20ft, 40ft and 40ft high cube containers delivered across the Blaine area. Your container ships from the yard nearest to you, with one delivered price and one point of contact.
Buying a container in the Blaine area
Blaine winters put snow, ice and hard freezes on the ground, and FEMA's National Risk Index ranks the Blaine area in the top tenth of US counties for how often cold wave events occur. That matters before the container arrives: plan a firm, level pad that stays passable when the approach is cold and wet, and think about vents and a moisture absorber for the condensation that big temperature swings create. First pick the size and grade, next confirm where the box will sit, then book delivery.
Our containers come in 20ft, 40ft and 40ft high cube sizes, new (one-trip) or used. When you ask for a price, we match the size and grade you want to the yard closest to your ZIP code, so your container travels the shortest distance, and send you one delivered price. You deal with one person from quote to drop-off.
Tilt-bed or flatbed delivery
Most people choose tilt-bed delivery: the truck tilts its bed and slides the container straight onto your pad, so you need no equipment. If you have a forklift or crane on site, we can send the container on a flatbed instead and you unload it. How delivery works.
Storage, jobsites and more in Blaine

Local conditions to plan for in Blaine
FEMA's National Risk Index puts the Blaine area in the top tenth of US counties for how often cold wave events occur; vents and a moisture absorber help with condensation from big temperature swings. It puts the area in the top tenth for how often hail events occur per square mile; check the roof and the paint for dents and chips after big storms. It puts the area in the top quarter for how often strong wind events occur per square mile; place the container on level ground away from loose debris and branches. It also puts the area in the top quarter for how often winter weather events occur; snow and ice can limit truck access to soft or unpaved approaches in winter. General care: vents for condensation and a firm, level pad.

Local conditions to plan for
Freeze-thaw and snow
Frozen ground heaves and settles. A compacted, well-drained gravel pad keeps the container level so the doors keep closing properly. Avoid scheduling delivery on soft spring-thaw ground.
Placement rules
Rules for containers on private property are set by your city or county, and sometimes your HOA or deed restrictions. Some places treat a container like a shed; others have rules on size, placement, screening or how long it can stay. Check with your local planning or zoning office before delivery. See container rules in Minnesota for what we found on official state sites.
