iStorage containers are weather-resistant. Most of our containers stay outside all year and the construction of the containers has been taken into account.
iStorage containers are made of a steel frame with specially designed, powder coated steel. The top is a translucent durable illuminate material. Plus, there is a light-weight steel roll up door.
It’s simple…we remove the extra burden of packing up a car or truck or laborer, making multiple trips to the self-storage facility, and then moving everything for a second time into the self-storage locker. With iStorage, we deliver the storage container right to your door. Load it up at your own pace and then call us to pick it up when you’re done! We’ll take care of the trips back and forth so you can focus on more important things at home.
