A 20ft storage container gives you about 160 square feet of lockable space, roughly 20 feet long by 8 feet wide by 8.5 feet tall, and it rents by the month rather than the day. Orem Porta Pros prices monthly storage container rental between $100 and $250 depending on unit condition and delivery distance.
An empty 20ft steel container typically weighs several thousand pounds before anything is loaded into it, which matters for driveway load limits and for the truck that delivers it. Orem Porta Pros needs firm, level ground to set the box down safely, similar to the clearance our roll-off dumpster rental trucks require. If you are comparing box sizes for a renovation job, the dumpster sizes and dimensions page breaks down footprint the same way we do for containers. Weight capacity inside the box depends on axle and floor rating rather than the shell itself, so heavy equipment or pallets of tile should get checked against the unit spec sheet before loading day. Customers doing a full home renovation porta potty job and a storage swap at the same address often book both from us in one trip, which trims the combined storage container rental cost versus two separate deliveries.
Standard interior dimensions run close to 20 feet by 8 feet with an 8.5 foot ceiling, giving enough clearance for stacked pallets or a small crew's tools. Delivery trucks for a 20ft unit need long, straight clearance similar to the 60 feet of straight approach our roll-off trucks require, so a narrow Orem alley or a tight cul-de-sac can complicate placement. We check driveway width and overhead lines before scheduling, the same walkthrough we do for a 40ft storage container when a job needs more room. Contractors converting a box into a jobsite office sometimes ask about a 20ft mobile office container with trailer setup instead of a static box; we can point you toward that option if you need power hookups and a desk rather than pure storage. Pair a container with a mobile office trailer rental when the crew needs both storage and a place to do paperwork out of the weather.
A 20ft box costs less per month than a 40ft unit and still handles most residential moves, small remodels, or seasonal inventory overflow. Orem Porta Pros serves jobsites here in Orem and out to Provo, 5.6 miles southeast, and Pleasant Grove, 6.4 miles northwest, without stretching delivery times much. If your load is mostly furniture or boxed goods, a 20ft footprint usually beats paying for 40ft you will not fill; see 20ft storage container sizing against its bigger sibling on the storage container rental page before committing. Some customers need a 20ft cold storage container for perishable inventory or event catering; we can source refrigerated units on request, though availability varies more than dry storage. For active construction, pairing a container with temporary fence rental around the site keeps tools and materials secured overnight, and OSHA 1926.25 still expects debris and scrap cleared from the work area even when a storage box is on-site.
Monthly rates for storage containers run $100 to $250 depending on unit age, delivery distance, and rental length. Longer terms often bring the per-month rate down. Check the storage container rental cost page for current specifics, and ask about combined pricing if you're also renting a 20ft storage container alongside a dumpster or fencing.
Usually yes, within a few business days, sooner if the driveway is clear and accessible. Delivery trucks need straight clearance to back in safely. If your job is urgent, mention it when you call; we prioritize based on truck routes already running near Orem and nearby cities like American Fork, 8.7 miles northwest.
Placement rules depend on whether the container sits on private property or extends into the right of way. That distinction needs confirming with the city before delivery. Check porta potty permit requirements for how we handle similar placement questions, since the logic carries over.
A 20ft unit offers about half the floor space of a 40ft box, roughly 160 square feet versus 320. Choose 20ft for small moves, tool storage, or seasonal overflow. Compare both on the 40ft storage container page before booking, since swapping sizes after delivery adds a second trip.
Yes, with modifications. A 20ft mobile office container with trailer setup can include a door, window, and basic power run, though a dedicated mobile office trailer rental is often simpler for daily desk use. Ask which fits your jobsite layout better.
