Buying a container in the Olathe area
Work in order. First pick the size that fits what you are storing. Next choose the grade against your budget and how visible the box will be. Last, sort out the site and the delivery method, then send your ZIP code for a delivered price. Customers in Lenexa, Overland Park, Gardner, Spring Hill, De Soto, Shawnee, Leawood and Merriam can request a delivered price the same way: send your ZIP code and what you need.
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.
Buying or renting a shipping container in Olathe
Grades, in plain terms: a new one-trip container was shipped once and looks close to new. All three keep things dry; they differ in looks, structure and price, so compare them on the new vs used guide and the grades guide.
What a container does for Olathe properties
Olathe has about 2,400 residents per square mile of land, a mostly suburban pattern, and many homes have room beside a driveway for a box. Common uses here are home storage during a move or renovation, garage overflow and seasonal storage, and jobsite storage for builders. Pick the use first, then the size and grade that serve it.
Plan the site and the grade together, then send your ZIP code for a delivered price.
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.
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 Kansas for what we found on official state sites.

Can I use a container on a jobsite in Olathe?
Yes, jobsite storage is a common use for builders. Choose a size and grade that match the site, and confirm the ground is firm and level. Check with the local planning or zoning office about rules for the property first.
What do I need for flatbed delivery?
You provides a forklift or crane to lift the container off the trailer. 20ft units usually have forklift pockets, while most 40ft units need a crane. The ground needs to be firm and level, with room for the trailer to reach the spot.
