Portable Storage Containers vs. Renting a Moving Truck
The main difference between portable storage container rentals and renting a truck is convenience. When you rent a moving truck, you have to drive to the rental store, drive your vehicle and the rental truck home, find a location to park it and then maneuver it into position to begin loading your belongings. This can be difficult, as just the task of driving a large moving truck can be daunting.  

 

Portable moving and storage containers, however, could not be simpler. The container company will deliver your container right to your home and leave it where you need it – whether in your driveway or on the street. You can keep the container as long as you need while loading your belongings, and when you’re done, the container company will return, load up the movable storage container and either store it for you, or deliver it to your new home for unloading.
