Shipping containers delivered across California

Delivery across California

California covers coastal cities, the farm country of the Central Valley, high and low desert, and mountain and forest land in the north. Containers are used on farms and vineyards, by contractors in every metro, for storage on rural parcels, and by businesses that need more secure space than they have indoors.

We deliver across California: Southern California and the Inland Empire, the Central Coast, the Central Valley from Bakersfield to Redding, the Bay Area and Sacramento, and rural parts of the state. Hillside lots and narrow streets are the usual things to check first.

Every order ships from the yard closest to your address. We deliver by tilt-bed, which sets the container straight onto the ground with no equipment needed, or by flatbed if you have a forklift or crane to unload it. Either way you get one delivered price and one point of contact.

How containers get used in California

Farm and vineyard storage

Growers keep tools, irrigation parts and supplies in containers at the edge of orchards, row crops and vineyards.

Construction and contractor storage

A locked container keeps tools and materials safe on job sites from San Diego to Sacramento.

Rural parcel and business storage

Owners of rural land and small businesses add secure storage without building a shed.

Weather and ground in California

Most of the state has dry summers and wet winters, which is easy on stored things, but conditions vary a lot. Salty coastal air speeds up rust, the Central Valley and the deserts get very hot in summer, and many hillside and foothill areas are in high fire-hazard zones where keeping brush cleared around any structure matters.

Dry seasons, coast and fire

Dry summers are easy on stored things. Near the coast, salty air speeds up rust, so touch up scratches. In fire-prone areas, keep brush cleared around any structure.

Permits and placement rules in California

California's Building Standards Code (Title 24) is the statewide minimum standard for buildings and structures. Local governments enforce it, while state agencies cover places such as hospitals, state buildings and public schools.

The 2022 California Building Code adopted the International Building Code section on intermodal shipping containers, and containers built or converted off-site that qualify as factory-built housing or commercial modulars must be approved by the state Department of Housing and Community Development. For a storage container, ask the building and planning department of your city, or your county in unincorporated areas.

This is general information, not legal advice. Rules change and vary by property, so confirm with the office that covers your address before delivery.
