Temporary Rental of Shipping Containers: Renovation and Events
Store your furniture, materials, or event equipment directly on site. Delivered in 24 to 48 hours, picked up when you no longer need it.
The Shipping Container, the Temporary Solution for Your Project
Renovation, self-construction, event, school, or municipal project: some space needs are temporary but very real. Renting a shipping container provides a secure solution, delivered directly to your address, with no travel costs or long-term commitment.
Your belongings are on site, under lock and key, accessible at all times. Once your project is finished, we come and pick up the container on the date you choose. No logistics management on your part.
For what types of projects?
Residential renovation
During work, a container on your land allows you to securely store furniture, personal belongings, and materials. No self-storage fees, no moving. The container is delivered to your home and picked up once the renovation is complete. Recommended format: 10 or 20 feet depending on the volume to be stored.
Self-construction and long term renovation
Are you working on a project spread over several months? An on-site container gives you secure access to your materials and tools at all times, without having to transport everything with each visit. Ideal for long-term projects where the duration is not yet fully defined. Recommended format: 20 feet depending on the volume to be stored.
Event (market, festival, municipality)
Need space for a Christmas market, a festival, a municipal event, or a community activity? Our containers are available in 10, 20, and 40 feet for short or seasonal durations. Delivery and pick-up planned according to your schedule. Recommended format: 10, 20, or 40 feet depending on the event logistics.
School and organization
Renovation, space overflow, seasonal equipment storage, or temporary archives: schools and organizations have occasional needs that do not justify a permanent investment. Rental offers a quick solution, without long-term commitment and easy to plan. Recommended format: 20 feet depending on the volume and available access.
Seasonal storage
Municipal sports equipment, stage equipment, decorations, or seasonal supplies: some equipment only needs space for a few months per year. A rental container allows you to manage this need flexibly, without permanent infrastructure. Recommended format: 20 or 40 feet depending on the volume.

Are you hesitating between renting and buying?
Rental is ideal if your need is temporary, if you want flexibility without a long-term commitment, or if you prefer not to manage the container’s location once your project is finished. Des conteneurs modifiés sont également disponibles en location.
A 20-foot container rents for approximately $100/month. Beyond 18 to 19 months, purchasing generally becomes more cost-effective.
Purchasing is more advantageous for permanent storage, a shed, a fixed construction site office, or if you wish to customize your container in the long term.
- Renovation or event less than 12 months: Rental
- Permanent storage or fixed infrastructure: Purchase
- Planned long-lasting modifications (insulation, electricity): Purchase recommended
