It’s hard to determine the exact time that it will take to ship your container to your new home. Since it all depends on the total distance moved and your starting location to your final destination. Depending on if you’re planning a local or long distance move, we suggest allowing for a total of 5-14 days delivery time.

Always try to estimate how long you’ll need to load and unload your container to help determine how long you’ll need to rent the container for.
Luckily, no! Rest assured, we only hire drivers that are trained and experienced professionals. Our drivers take great care in safely and properly placing your container at the desired location. As long as there are no obstructions, the driver can place your container without you being present. Always check with your local council on the rules and guidelines of placing portable storage containers outside your home. Some councils may require permits, while others may require a minimum amount of clearance space. By checking you'll be saving yourself a lot of future headaches should there be an issue.
