Shipping Containers for Construction Site Storage

Construction sites in Montana demand tough, reliable storage. Whether you're managing a commercial build in Billings, a highway project in the Bakken, or a remote ranch construction — a shipping container from Mobile-Stor gives your crew secure, weatherproof, lockable storage on the spot.

Our steel containers are built to withstand harsh Northern Plains conditions: wind, snow, temperature swings, and rough terrain. They sit directly on the ground, require no foundation, and can be positioned exactly where your foreman needs them. When the job moves, we pick them up.

Common Questions

Can you deliver to a gravel or dirt construction site?

Yes. Our tilt-bed trailer can place containers on most surfaces — gravel, dirt, compacted base. We'll talk through your site access when you call to ensure we bring the right equipment.

How quickly can I get a container?

We can typically schedule delivery within a few business days, sometimes sooner depending on your location. Call us and we'll give you a specific timeline.

What size container do I need for a construction site?

Most contractors start with a 20-foot container for tools and supplies. If you're storing large equipment, lumber, or materials for a longer project, a 40-foot gives you the most room. We're happy to help you choose.

Do I need a permit for a construction site storage container?

Permit requirements vary by county and municipality in Montana. Temporary containers on active construction sites are often exempt. We recommend checking with your local building department.
