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.
Should you buy or rent a container in Gallatin?
Containers are for sale and for rent, so the first question is how long you need the box. Buying suits long-term or permanent storage, where the container stays put and you want it to be yours. Renting suits a project, a move or a season. Rental details come with your quote.
Local conditions to plan for in Gallatin
The same index puts Sumner County in the top quarter of US counties for how often inland flooding events occur per square mile. Keep the container off low spots and drainage paths so water does not pool under it. It also puts the county in the top quarter for how often tornado events occur per square mile, so set the container on a firm, level pad and keep the doors latched.
Beyond storm placement, fit vents to manage condensation and check the pad after heavy rain.

Local conditions to plan for
Humidity and condensation
Warm, humid air condenses on cool steel. Roof or wall vents, a few moisture absorbers and keeping stored things off the floor on pallets protect what is inside.
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 Tennessee for what we found on official state sites.
