Shipping containers delivered across Tennessee
New and used 20ft, 40ft and 40ft high cube containers, delivered from Nashville and Memphis to Knoxville, Chattanooga and the Tri-Cities. Your container ships from the yard nearest to you.
Delivery across Tennessee
Tennessee runs from Memphis and the flat farmland of West Tennessee through Nashville and Middle Tennessee to Knoxville, Chattanooga and the mountains in the east. Containers serve construction in growing metros, farms, and rural and mountain property owners.
We deliver across Tennessee: Memphis, Jackson, Nashville, Murfreesboro, Clarksville, Franklin, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Johnson City, Kingsport and rural counties in between. Hilly and rocky lots in Middle and East Tennessee need a look at the approach.
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.

Weather and ground in Tennessee
Humid summers make vents worthwhile. Middle Tennessee often has limestone close to the surface, so some lots are rocky and uneven, while West Tennessee lowlands can hold water. A level, drained pad matters everywhere.
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.
Permits and placement rules in Tennessee
Tennessee's State Fire Marshal's Office runs a residential building code program, based on the International Residential Code, for one- and two-family homes and townhouses in areas that have not been exempted for local enforcement or opted out. Where that state program applies, no state residential permit is needed for detached garages, sheds, barns or other detached structures not used for living.
State Fire Marshal guidance also cites state law that a ready-removable structure, one without a foundation that can easily be moved, may not be modified for use as residential, recreational or emergency housing. For a storage container, ask your city or county building and zoning office what applies at your address.
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 Tennessee
Can you deliver a container in East Tennessee?
Where the road and drop spot allow, yes. Steep, winding drives are common in the mountains, so describe the approach when you ask for a price.
What base does a container need in Tennessee?
A level gravel pad or solid blocks at the corners. On rocky ground the job is leveling; on low clay ground it is drainage.
Do I need a permit for a shipping container in Tennessee?
Where Tennessee's state residential program applies, detached structures not used for living, such as sheds and barns, need no state residential permit. Areas with their own local enforcement set their own rules, so ask your city or county building office.
