A storage container sits at ground level, is made of steel, and is built for long-term on-site storage. A storage trailer sits at dock height on wheels, has a wood floor, and is built for loading and unloading with a forklift or pallet jack at a dock. Containers are the right pick for secure ground-level storage — available across our full branch network. Trailers are the right pick when dock access matters — stocked at select branches based on regional demand.

Our storage trailers are designed to keep contents protected from the elements, and every unit is inspected before delivery. As with any enclosed trailer, condensation can form in humid conditions, so keep goods on pallets or shelving. Tell your rep what you are storing and we will recommend the best setup.

With 25,000+ units staged across 20+ branches from Maine to Michigan, most markets are served within 24 to 48 hours. Delivery timing depends on your location and unit availability, so the fastest way to lock in a date is to request a quote and tell us when you need it on site.

No. The roof of a trailer isn’t a storage or walking surface. It’s built to shed water, not carry weight. Anything up there can damage the panels, void your lease, and create a safety hazard.

Yes. We offer high-security locks designed for trailer swing doors and roll-up doors, plus gladhand, kingpin, and other locks that prevent the trailer from being hooked and towed. Ask your rep to add the right security package for your site.

Two main options: swing doors (barn doors at the rear that open outward on hinges) and roll-up doors (slide up overhead like a garage door). Swing doors are standard, durable, and seal well. Roll-ups are faster at a dock and don’t need rear clearance. Both are available across our rental fleet.

Our storage trailers are built on road-ready chassis, but on-site storage trailers are intended to stay parked. If you need to move it, coordinate with Eagle so it is hauled safely and legally. For trailers you plan to tow on the highway regularly, ask about our road and semi trailers instead.
