What is there to know about parking a moving storage container?
Moving and Storage Container Parking
If you are looking into affordable self storage, you will need to know the basics about parking your moving /storage container. Here are some tips from the experts at moving/storage companies:
- If you are not parking on a private driveway or designated parking spot, you may be required to secure a parking permit before your container arrives. Check with your municipality.
- If you are renting a home, get permission from your landlord before you rent a container.
- A trailer should be parked on a level surface - hard packed gravel or pavement.
- Talk to your storage container company about clearance. A storage trailer should not be parked under low-hanging tree branches or power lines.
- If you have limited space, consider a smaller container like a ReloCube. It may be easier to find space for a few smaller cubes than one larger container.
