Shipping containers come in many varying sizes. They make excellent portable storage space because of the way they are designed. Since they are designed to transport heavy cargo in the sea and in harsh weather conditions they are made to be long-lasting, safe, secure and weatherproof. They are made of stainless steel and they can hold almost anything from food to heavy machinery. They are hence made to keep everything safe and secure making them the best portable storage units.
Shipping containers as self-storage units are a great idea because they come in all sizes and types. This makes it possible to store larger objects that cannot fit through the end side door or items that need to be kept at certain temperatures. They range in sizes but the 20ft container is the most common.

Though they differ in in size and shape of the stuff you want to store, you stand to benefit more if you are more organized. This container is easier to transport than a 40ft storage container and it can handle many things as well.

This are usually used by people who have lots and lots of stuff. It is quite big and to be realistic it would be cheaper to use one 40ft container than using two 20ft containers. It can fit 3-4 cars depending on size or contents of a five bedroom house. Organization is key when using this containers. The lighter items that you may need most should be near the door. In that case you do not have to hustle much by removing the big items to look for small ones.

GoBox Portable Storage Inc. is a top notch organization. Efficiency and service is their major strength. We rented two large storage containers when we built our house - they were delivered on time and placed exactly where we wanted them. We just returned them, and they were removed quickly and neatly. Would highly recommend this company in a heartbeat. Thank you, Rob! Five star all the way! Steve C.
Fantastic company! Rob has been so awesome to work with from both my perspective and our insureds. He is very efficient, and his level of professionalism, care, and communication has been unrivaled! Looking forward to many years of business with you! Thanks for being so great!
We rented a storage container from Rob while building a house. With appliances being in such high demand we wanted to get them ahead of time but had no place to keep them. The storage box was perfect for all the house appliances and fixtures and was handy to have on site. Very affordable and was a life saver during the build.
Quick and courteous service. We needed some extra storage fast and they delivered clean, secure, and well-functioning containers. The mini lift they used for placement allowed us to get creative and fit 2 containers where others would have only been able to place one.
So happy with the delivery of the container today! I was totally prepared to "make do" with locating it at a space that I thought was most accessible for him but he was able to place the container in a preferred spot thanks to the system he uses to move the container off the truck. I had never seen anything like this - using remote control to operate the machine that moves the container - no worrying about the truck being able to fit into a tight space! I totally recommend this service if you are looking for affordable, clean, convenient extra storage on site.
I recently had a very positive experience with GoBox Portable Storage Inc. Gananoque Ontario! It was a pleasure dealing with Rob!

In fact the scheduled delivery was arranged for between 10 and 11 a.m. and to my surprise Rob was there at my property at 5 minutes to 10! The POD was clean and secure for my Household Items and Furniture! The Rates at GoBox are quite reasonable! Rob is very professional and pleasant to deal with! He knows his product well and is extremely helpful! It was a pleasure dealing with Rob and GO Box Portables Inc. Thank you Rob! EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!
Our GoBox was delivered within a week of the request. The price is comparable to a storage unit of similar size, but you have the convenience of having is where you want it. We rented it when we did a major renovation and it was perfect. The owner was curtains and friendly as well. Highly recommend!
We rented a go box while doing a home renovation, it was great putting our appliances and furniture right outside our front door. We could bring pieces in as the reno moved along. Price is very comparable to a storage facility but didn’t have to hire truck or movers to get from storage facility. It only took Rob 20 minutes to unload storage container right onto my front yard ( my choice) , ten feet from my front door. Very neat , manoeuvrable unit that loads/unloads the container, makes so Rob can put it almost anywhere. Highly recommend!
Go box is an amazing company to work with. They delivered a unit quickly when we needed it and put it in place within a day of contacting Rob. The invoicing and payment process is easy and efficient. Pleasant and courteous, a real pleasure. My husband and I would highly recommend GoBox !
This was one of the best parts of our recent renovation. Rob was amazing to work with and soaccommodating . Having the storage container land in on our driveway and the ability to move the contents of our home at our leisure was priceless. I can’t say enough good things about this experience. I will recommend this option for all my clients and friends going forward.
Great experience and extremely convenient! We used a sea can for our new build to store some of our stuff while we stayed in an air B & B. Pick up and drop off was great and very straightforward. In my opinion, the price was great too!
We stored 2 units on our property to store all of our belongings while our house was being built. The cans were clean, sealed tight, and came in excellent condition. Rob was great at accommodating our timelines, delivery and pick up was seamless, and he was very easy to communicate with. We would definitely recommend GoBox to anyone in need of easy storage solutions!
Go Box was a very convenient and affordable option. Delivery and pickup were right on schedule which made moving as stress free as possible. Rob was excellent to deal with. I highly recommended using go box for your next move.
Rob and company have been fantastic to work with. Always on time. Can place the storage container basically anywhere you want it. We have been very happy with their service.
Rob is amazing...the facility is amazing!! Great rates, great customer service and an extremely convenient location. I wish I could give more than 5 Stars!
We recently moved from a large house to a much smaller house and needed a storage solution to allow us to sort things out without storing offsite. GoBox fit the bill perfectly. They gently lowered the container onto wooden blocks on the driveway with their amazing container mover. It didn't leave a single mark on the driveway. A very cost effective storage solution. I highly recommend them.
