Shipping containers delivered across Connecticut
New and used 20ft, 40ft and 40ft high cube containers, delivered from Fairfield County and New Haven to Hartford and the Quiet Corner. Your container ships from the yard nearest to you.
Delivery across Connecticut
Connecticut packs coastal towns along Long Island Sound, the Hartford and New Haven metros, and wooded hills in the northwest and the Quiet Corner into a small state. Containers are used by contractors, landscapers, schools and homeowners who need lockable storage on tight New England lots.
We deliver throughout Connecticut, from Greenwich, Stamford and Bridgeport to New Haven, Hartford, Waterbury, New London and the rural northeast and northwest corners. Narrow roads, stone walls and tight driveways are the usual things to measure 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 Connecticut
- Contractor and landscaper storage
- A locked container on a yard or job site keeps equipment and materials secure.
- Home renovation storage
- Homeowners keep furniture and belongings safe during a remodel or move.
- Seasonal storage near the shore
- Coastal properties store boat gear, outdoor furniture and equipment between seasons.
Weather and ground in Connecticut
Cold winters with snow and freeze-thaw cycles, humid summers, and nor'easters along the coast. A drained gravel pad keeps the container level through the winter, vents help with summer condensation, and near the Sound salty air makes touching up scratches worthwhile.
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.
Permits and placement rules in Connecticut
Connecticut has one State Building Code, set by the Office of the State Building Inspector. The 2022 edition is based on the 2021 International Codes and applies to permit applications filed from October 1, 2022.
To find out whether a container needs a permit or meets zoning at your address, ask your town's building and zoning offices.
This is general information, not legal advice. Rules change and vary by property, so confirm with the office that covers your address before delivery.

Questions about containers in Connecticut
Can a container fit on a typical Connecticut lot?
Often, yes, but older lots, stone walls and narrow roads can be tight. The truck needs a straight approach and about 12 feet of width, so measure the route and the drop spot first.
What base should a container sit on in Connecticut?
A level, well-drained gravel pad or solid blocks at the corners. Frost heave can twist a container on bare ground, which makes the doors hard to close.
Do I need a permit for a shipping container in Connecticut?
Connecticut uses one State Building Code, but placement and permits are questions for your town. Ask the town building and zoning offices before delivery.
