How to Prepare for Ground Level Delivery of a Storage Container (2021 update)

How to prepare for ground level delivery of a shipping container. Whether you buy or rent a storage container from Western Container Sales, we'll deliver it to your site with a roll-off delivery truck.

We need 75ft of space to deliver 20ft containers (an additional 55ft for the truck when fully extended). We need 120ft of space to deliver 40ft containers (80ft of additional space for the semi when it's fully extended.

Make sure you've got a firm surface for the truck, which can weigh over 45,000 pounds. Concrete, asphalt, and gravel work best. We can deliver to a soft surface (like dirt or grass) only if a site review has been completed, and we still require a back-up plan on a hard surface.
