Shipping Containers for Ranch & Farm Storage

Montana ranchers and farmers have discovered that a shipping container is one of the most practical storage investments you can make. Whether you need to store feed, tack, tools, fencing supplies, seed, or equipment — a steel container keeps everything dry, secure, and protected from the elements year-round.

Mobile-Stor delivers directly to your property — ranch entrance, pasture road, wherever you need it placed. We level it, position it, and leave you with a maintenance-free storage unit that will last for decades.

Common Questions

Can a container be placed on a ranch with limited truck access?

We'll talk through your access situation before delivery. In most cases, our tilt-bed can reach ranch roads, pasture gates, and even across fields if the ground is firm enough. Call us and we'll work it out.

How long can I rent for?

As long as you need. We offer flexible monthly rentals with no minimum commitment. Many ranchers rent seasonally — for calving season, harvest, or winter feed storage — and return the container when they're done.

Is a used container good enough for ranch use?

Absolutely. Used containers are structurally sound and watertight — they just show cosmetic wear. For storing feed, tack, tools, and equipment, a used container performs the same as a new one at a lower cost.
