Storage Trailers and Containers for Rent and for Sale in Chelmsford, Maine
Storage Trailers vs. Containers
Storage trailers and containers make a great investment for those seeking to safely store a variety items. While either trailers or containers provide great value, the one you choose depends on your particular needs.
Both storage containers and storage trailers offer protection of your valuables from multiple hazards including:
- Inclement weather
- Water damage
- Dirt and debris
- Theft and vandalism
- Animal pests
- Environmental contamination
Storage Containers
Storage containers rest at ground level, offering convenient access. Since they are made from strong materials such as aluminum and steel, their design allows for stacking of the units. Offered in a range of sizes, storage containers are great for storing a variety of large objects including tools and machinery. Where they differ most from storage trailers is that they are transported via a flatbed truck. They cannot be attached to loading docks but provide an ideal option for easy storage access at a permanent location.
Storage Trailers
Unlike storage containers, storage trailers provide greater mobility. You can move them easily, making them the best choice for contractors and business owners who need to transport materials between locations. They also provide attachment to loading docks. Furthermore, you can choose storage trailers with either swing doors for larger entry space, or roll-up doors for frequent access. Like storage containers, storage trailers are offered in a variety of sizes to suit your individual storage needs.
Renting vs. Buying a Chelmsford Storage Trailer or Container
Before choosing whether to rent or buy your storage trailer or container, carefully consider the benefits of both options.
The main consideration is the amount of time you intend to use the storage unit. Purchasing your storage trailer or container offers the best overall value for your long-term storage needs. Most people collect items over time, and businesses tend to grow. Purchasing your unit provides a long-term storage solution while avoiding rental fees or rushing a project to meet a specific return date. Renting, on the other hand, offers the best storage value for those with a near-term end date in mind, such as during a move or for a single construction project. It also provides greater flexibility, and you can always consider purchasing a storage trailer or container later down the road.
Items commonly stored long-term include:
- Records and documents
- Excess retail inventory
- Tools and machinery
- Warehouse items
- Seasonal items
- Home furnishings
Short-term uses for storage trailers and containers include:
- Contract projects
- Home moves and renovations
- Wedding and other special events
- Home renovations
- Landscaping jobs
