How Much Does a 12-Foot Container Cost?
The cost of a 12-foot container depends on a number of factors, which all have to do with your specific needs, including:
Time: The length of time that you need to rent your storage container will impact the total cost of your storage container. If you only need on-site storage for a few months due to a renovation project, you'll pay less than someone who needs on-site storage for files year-round. Consider what you'll be using your storage container for to determine how long you'll need it so that our team can give you the most accurate quote possible.
Number of Containers: Many individuals will only need one storage container for their needs. This can also be true for those who are using their container for a move or temporary, on-site storage. However, if you have a lot of stuff to move or store, you might need multiple containers. More 12-foot containers added to your order will increase overall cost, but you will have plenty of storage space for whatever you need.
Transportation of Container: If you're storing your container on your property, you'll pay less than someone who needs off-site storage. The length of time you'll need off-site storage also affects the cost. You can choose to store your belongings at any one of our nationwide facilities. Just note that it will cost a bit more to transport your container back and forth from your location to one of our facilities.
Size of Container: 1-800-PACK-RAT's 12-foot storage container is our medium size container option. You might find that the 12-foot container works perfectly for your needs. However, in some cases, you'll need a larger or smaller size. The 12-foot container complements both the 16-foot storage container and the 8-foot storage container, so we always have an option that fits your needs.
A 12-foot storage container can hold up to 3 rooms of furniture. It's roughly the same size as a 10' x 10' storage room and can hold up to 6,000lbs of contents. Some items that can be stored in these containers are:

Uses For a 12-Foot Moving and Storage Container
Our 12-foot portable storage containers are the perfect storage solution for a variety of different storage needs. Consider using one of our storage containers for one of the following uses:

Best part is, you will have 24/7 access to it on-site in the event you need something stored inside.

Local or Long-Distance Moving: Moving is never easy, but you can make the process go smoothly with a 12-foot portable storage container.
