Many customers take advantage of our storage container rentals in Grand Rapids, MI for these sizes, whether for personal projects, construction, or commercial storage needs.
  • What's the difference between standard and high-cube containers?

    High-cube containers are 1.5 feet taller, measuring 9.5 feet compared to the standard 8-foot containers, giving you extra vertical space for larger or bulkier items. Our storage container rentals in Grand Rapids, MI include both standard and high-cube options, so you can select the size that best fits your moving, remodeling, or storage needs.
  • Can I negotiate the price?

    Used container prices may be negotiable depending on their condition, and you’re always welcome to come and select the container in person. For those looking for storage container rentals in Grand Rapids, MI, visiting us in person gives you the chance to see your options up close and discuss pricing directly.
  • How are containers delivered?

    We use tilt-deck trailers that lower the container into place as the truck drives out from underneath, making delivery safe and efficient. Our storage container rentals in Grand Rapids, MI are delivered this way to confirm your container is set up exactly where you need it, whether for a home project, business use, or temporary storage.
  • Can 40' containers be delivered to residential areas?

    Typically, no, due to space limitations, as these containers require a 53' truck and about 100' of clearance. If you're seeking storage container rentals in Grand Rapids, MI, we can help you find the right size container that works safely in residential areas or suggest alternatives to fit your project needs.
  • What should I place underneath my container?

    If placing a container on concrete, it can go directly on the surface. For asphalt, it’s best to use plywood sheets, and on soil or grass, you should use 6 in. x 6 in. x 8 ft. wood, blocks, or railroad ties for stability. Our storage container rentals in Grand Rapids, MI come with guidance on proper setup to help protect both your container and the surface it sits on.
  • Is there a time limit on container rentals?

    No, there is no time limit. You can rent a container for as long as you need. Our storage container rentals in Grand Rapids, MI are flexible so whether it is a short-term project or long-term storage, you can keep the container for the duration that works best for you.
  • Are your containers guaranteed?

    At MACS Container Service LLC, all our containers are sold as-is with no guarantee. A buyer agreement is required to release liability. Our storage container rentals in Grand Rapids, MI follow the same policy, giving you clear terms while providing reliable containers for your project or storage needs.
  • What if I have an emergency and need it same-day?

    This can be accommodated in some situations. Give Julia a call, and we’ll see what we can do!
