Your site will need to be easily accessible by a large delivery truck and should have a flat, firm surface on which to place the container. You’ll also need to ensure there’s enough clearance for the truck to maneuver and for the container to be placed. Any obstacles, such as low-hanging wires or trees, will need to be cleared prior to delivery.
Most rental containers are made from durable, weather-resistant steel and feature sturdy cargo doors that can be secured with a heavy-duty padlock. Some may also have additional security features like lockboxes (a steel box that protects the padlock from being tampered with), internal locking systems, or even alarm systems. It’s best to inquire with the yellowhead about the available security features. Remember, while these features can provide a good level of security, it’s also important to consider the overall security of the location where you’ll be placing the container.

While weight restrictions for items in shipping containers at Yellowhead Storage in Edmonton can vary depending on the type of container and local regulations, it’s essential to be mindful of weight limits. Standard shipping containers typically have a maximum payload capacity of around 30,000 pounds. However, it’s crucial to check with the container provider and consider any weight limitations imposed by local transportation authorities if you plan to move the container. Overloading a container can lead to structural damage and safety hazards during transportation. To ensure the safe storage and transport of your items, distribute weight evenly within the container, avoid placing excessively heavy items on top of one another, and consult with Yellowhead Storage for specific weight guidelines.
