CHECK DELIVERY ACCESS

Planning for Storage Container Delivery

Choosing the right container is only part of the buying process. Buyers should also consider site access, ground conditions, container positioning and ongoing access before arranging delivery.

PREPARE THE GROUND

Storage containers should be placed on level, stable ground such as a concrete pad, gravel base or timber sleepers to avoid sinking.

CHECK OVERHEAD OBSTRUCTIONS

Identify any low-hanging branches, power lines or structures that could interfere with the delivery truck or the container during offloading.

PLAN DOOR ORIENTATION

Decide which way the container doors should face before delivery to ensure the unit is positioned correctly for easy site access.

CONSIDER ONGOING ACCESS

Plan for where vehicles and personnel will need to move around the storage container once it is in its final position on your site.

PROVIDE ACCURATE SITE INFORMATION

Inform your supplier about any gates, slopes, narrow paths or site constraints before delivery day to ensure a smooth logistics process.
