Newark FAQs
How far do you deliver from Newark? Do you service small towns
Yes! While our depots are in Newark, we deliver within a 300-mile radius. We frequently service small towns and rural areas across New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania, Upstate New York, and Connecticut. Whether you are on a farm in Sussex County or a lot in the Poconos, we can get a truck to you.
Do I need a permit to put a container on my property?
Regulations vary by town. While cities like Newark often require permits, many smaller towns and rural areas in New Jersey and PA have more relaxed zoning for temporary storage or agricultural use. We recommend checking with your local township's building department before delivery.
What site preparation is needed for delivery?
We need a flat, firm surface (gravel, asphalt, or dry grass) and clear access. For a 20ft container, we need about 60ft of straight-line clearance; for a 40ft container, we need 100ft. Our tilt-bed trucks are designed to deliver to driveways, fields, and construction sites easily.
Will a used shipping container withstand Northeast winters?
Absolutely. Our Wind and Watertight (WWT) containers are built with heavy-duty COR-TEN steel. They are designed to survive ocean storms, making them impervious to heavy snow loads, freezing rain, and pests common in the Northeast.
How fast can I get my container?
We typically deliver within 10 to 15 business days, depending on your distance from our Newark depot. If you have an urgent need for emergency storage, give us a call to check our expedited schedule.
