Reasons to Rent a Mobile Storage Container
It’s just easy!
With normal storage facilities the process is way more complicated. You’d have to pack by a certain date, rent a truck, load your things to the truck, drive to the storage facility, unload the truck and place everything inside the unit. With mobile storage, the container parks in your driveway, you can pack directly in it at your own pace and… that’s it! Your belongings stay right there where you need them. Or if you don’t want to keep at your place, we drive the container to our closest facility and… that’s it! Again, no need to unload or anything else. Everything stays exactly how and where you packed it.
There’s no loading ramp involved
You can load your STORsquare portable storage container right at ground level. Forget about lifting items to get them up and down.

When you are ready we will deliver the unit right at your doorstep and we’ll keep it there for as long as you need it. If you need to move it to a new location, we’ll take it and deliver right to your new doorstep.
You can take your time
Since the container will be right outside your door, you can take all the time you need to properly organize, pack and inventorize your items. No need to get everything done by a certain date. No need to rush.
What to Know Before Renting Storage Containers in Dahlonega
Before signing a lease, take these factors into consideration: There are many different reasons to rent a storage unit, and depending on your reason and your specific needs is the size or amount of containers you’ll want to lease. When deciding which company to go with, make sure they can provide the exact size you need to cover all your wants and needs. Another important factor is the quality of the container itself. Look for a sturdy container. A lot of companies can claim their units are wheater resistant, but at STORsquare we can also guarantee ours to survive a fire. Once you have your unit parked in your driveway, make sure you use quality materials for packing. Look for the best boxes, tape and padding you can find. At STORsquare we have packing blankets, dollies and locks available for your use. One of the many advantages of mobile storage containers is that you don’t have to rush, so take your time packing so no item is damaged in the process. If you are storing many objects across different categories (furniture, clothing, equipment, etc,.) it’s a good idea to keep an inventory. That way you can go in and find whatever item you need everytime you need something. This also helps you keep things organized and when your done with a particular item, you’ll know where exactly to put it back.
