Q: How Big Are The Containers?

The containers measure 8Lx5Wx7H or 280 cubic feet. Each container will typically accommodate an average room to a room-and-a-half of household goods. The containers sit about 4 inches off the ground to insure that your belongings are safe and dry should the weather choose not to cooperate during the time you are loading.
 

Q: What Are The Containers Made Out Of?

Our containers are made of pressure treated 3/4" plywood to provide a very stable and chemical free environment for which to store and transport your belongings. Each container is also covered with a highly durable, weather-resistant cover.
 

Q: Where Will You Place The Container(s)?

The containers will be placed at your residence or business in a location that will be easiest for you to load and unload. They can be placed anywhere a car can be parked and of course most anywhere on private property.
 

Q: How Do I Keep Items From Shifting During Transit?

Packing your container(s) is a simple task! Treat them just like you would a truck, minus the slippery metal ramp to navigate your way up and down. Remember that your containers are only 4" from the ground. Place your heavier items on the bottom and lighter items on the top. Fill in as much empty space as you can and utilize packing supplies! Things like moving blankets and using the appropriate boxes are the single most important factors in a successful move.

Our 8'x5' units are larger than you think.  They can hold up to 2000 pounds and are 280 cubic feet.  If you need more space just ask for more units.  It is not uncommon for customers to get several units for moving or storage. Why pay for unused space in an oversized container!

Yes, in most cases we can do same day delivery and pick-up. Depending on delivery schedules, special arrangements can be made to accommodate any schedule.
 

Q: Do You Have Insurance?

Need Space?, Inc. is fully insured. Although, since we do not know the contents of your unit, we cannot insure any loss due to damaged goods. As stated in our contract, the customer is expected to obtain the optional “Tenant-One” insurance offered, if they want to protect their items.
 

Q: What If My Items Are Damaged/Stolen at My Location?

Since you (the customer) provide your own lock for the unit, you are responsible for the security of the unit when it is at your location.  Check with your homeowners insurance to see if your items are insured while the unit is on your location.
