A 20ft storage container gives you roughly 160 square feet of lockable space, runs about 8 feet wide and 8.5 feet tall, and rents from Spokane Valley Porta Pros with monthly pricing between 100 and 250 dollars depending on term and site access. It works for tool storage, overflow inventory, or a job site that needs a secure box on site.
The box measures 20 feet long by roughly 8 feet wide by 8.5 feet tall, giving you around 1,170 cubic feet of enclosed space. That footprint fits most driveways and job sites in Spokane Valley without eating the whole lot, though you should still check clearance the way you would for roll-off dumpster rental or a 20ft storage container delivery truck maneuvering in. If you need more room, 40ft storage container units double the length on the same width and height. Doors are steel, lockable, and wide enough for pallet jacks and hand trucks. Compare that against a mobile office trailer rental if you need a desk and HVAC instead of just storage. Ground needs to be level and reasonably firm, similar to placement requirements for a restroom trailer rental or a temporary power pole setup nearby.
Empty, a standard 20ft steel container weighs in the neighborhood of 5,000 pounds, which matters when you're planning delivery truck access on softer ground or a shared driveway in Spokane Valley. That weight also factors into placement decisions the same way dumpster weight limits affect where a roll-off can sit. Delivery trucks need clear approach and departure room, and a loaded container adds substantially more once you've filled it with tools, inventory, or renovation debris pulled off a project covered under home renovation porta potty planning. If your site sits closer to Liberty Lake, about 7.0 miles east, or out toward Millwood, 4.6 miles northwest, tell us the address up front so we can route the right truck and confirm the driveway or lot can take the load. Some customers ask about a 20ft cold storage container for perishable inventory; check with our office on availability since not every unit in the fleet is refrigerated.
Yes, and it's a common request from contractors who need both an office and a storage box on the same site. Pair a storage container rental with a restroom trailer rental or handwashing station rental and you've got the basics of a functioning job site without permanent construction. Many Spokane Valley crews doing multi-week builds run this combination alongside a temporary fence rental to secure the whole footprint. Storage pricing runs 100 to 250 dollars a month depending on length of term, per our measured rental data, and it's cheaper than daily dumpster rates for holding materials you're not ready to move. For general job site sanitation counts, OSHA 1926.51(c) still applies if you've got crews on site daily, so pair your container with the right restroom count using our how many porta potties do I need guide.

Rentals run month to month with no fixed maximum in our system. Most Spokane Valley contractors keep a unit for the length of a project, then call to extend or schedule pickup. Ask about your specific timeline when you request a quote.
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before delivery. We are happy to check current requirements for your address. See Dumpster Permit Requirements in Spokane Valley, WA for a related process, and ask us directly if your container needs to sit on a street or sidewalk.
Hazardous materials, flammables, and anything already banned from dumpsters generally shouldn't go in a storage box either. Check what cannot go in a dumpster for a rundown, since the same caution applies to enclosed storage on site.
Delivery is typically a separate line item, priced by trip and distance from our yard to your Spokane Valley address. Ask us for delivery cost when you book, since it depends on driveway access and how far out you are.
Yes. If 20 feet is more space than you need, ask about smaller storage options or compare against a 20ft storage container versus 40ft storage container for your specific job size and material volume.
