Multistore Containers - Flexible, Mobile and Cost-Effective Solutions For Growing Businesses
Pop-ups that are placed in shipping containers are a flexible, mobile, and cost-effective solution for growing businesses. They also cut down on operational costs and the environmental footprint.

Easy to Assemble
Contrary to traditional construction, multi unit containers are constructed before being delivered on site. This helps reduce construction costs, saves you time and allows for easy scaling up and down according to the needs of your business.
If you choose to use a portable storage container business, look for an area close to you. Ask whether they can provide delivery and pickup services, and if they do and how often. Also, make sure that the terms and rates are flexible.
Some companies, like PODS and U-Pack have a national network, whereas others, like UNITS and 1-800-PACK-RAT focus on specific areas. If you want an experience that is more personal opt for the latter. You can contact local agents who know your area as well as the storage and containers in your area.
Multistore containers are containers that provide additional storage space inside the main storage area. Self-storage facilities that require tiny storage spaces to store different equipment and tools are a favorite of these units. Converting a standard shipping container into a multi-store is simple and is usually done on site using standard lifting equipment, such as landolls and sidelifters. You can then load the containers onto trucks for transport. These trucks usually use flatbed or drop deck trailers, and long-distance transportation requires a truck with crane, such as tilt-deck or landoll trailers.
Easy to move
Multistore Containers can be moved from one location to another by means of cranes and flatbed trailers. This allows for a fast and easy transfer of containers to the preferred location of the construction site. These containers can also be used as temporary storage solutions for construction equipment and PPE (personal protective equipment) while the project is in progress.
Be sure to do some research on the company's pricing and reviews before selecting them for storage or moving needs. Select a company that provides flexible delivery and pick-up options, and convenient hours. Also, ensure that the company provides reasonable storage rates and discounts on rentals for longer durations. Ask about insurance for the contents of your container in storage and transit and whether it's covered under your homeowner or renters insurance.
If you're looking for the best experience when it comes to shipping containers, select one with a wide range of locations across the United States. U-Pack PODS and 1-800-PACK-RAT have huge networks, however, they are all independently operated and owned. This allows each company to provide a personalized approach and means that you'll speak with someone who is familiar with your local area and needs.
Additionally the shipping container company should offer modern equipment for both loading and transporting your unit. This could include side loaders, landolls, and tilt-bed trucks for local transport and long hauls that extend over several hundred miles. Look for a company who can transport your container to parking spaces or narrow streets where other containers won't fit. This is particularly helpful for those who reside in an urban location where street parking is limited and permits are required.
Easy to maintain
Whether the container is used as a living space or workshop, or as a storage space, it needs to be maintained regularly. Cleaning and repair of any damage can be done by cleaning the container. This will ensure that the container is in good working condition and safe for use.
For instance flooring in a shipping container that has been damaged or is rotting can be easily replaced by an entirely new piece of plywood. This involves removing the old panel, and then either riveting or screwing in the new one, according to the method of attachment. It is essential to ensure that the new flooring is the same thickness as the previous panel.
Containers degrade over time, just as other manufacturing equipment. Repairs are required for heavier damages that prevent proper use. The containers must be repaired in a way that guarantees security of transport and accuracy in dimensional measurements as well as weathertightness (Germanischer Lloyd 1978).
If you'd like to make your container even more durable, you can build additional walls on the sides of the container. This will provide you with more individual storage rooms and will shield your possessions from the elements.
Another great feature of these containers is that they can be adapted to accommodate multiple doors. This is an excellent option for self-storage facilities or construction sites that require small spaces to store different equipment and tools. Shipping container multi-stores are an ideal solution to meet the requirements without having to buy multiple individual containers.
