Why 20-Foot Containers Are the Smart Choice for Homeowners
The 20-foot container is the most popular size for a reason. It offers the perfect balance of space, mobility, and affordability:
- Spacious Enough: Easily stores furniture from a 2–3 bedroom home, sports gear, lawn equipment, and more.
- Compact Footprint: Fits neatly in most residential driveways or backyards.
- Highly Mobile: Can be delivered and removed without complex equipment or long lead times.
- Durable and Secure: Built to withstand harsh weather and provide long-term protection for your belongings.
Whether you need extra storage for a few weeks or a few years, a 20-foot container rental offers the flexibility you need.
The Top Challenges Homeowners Face (And How We Solve Them)

1. Limited Availability and High Costs of Quality Containers
When storage demand spikes, homeowners often find themselves at the end of a long waitlist—or paying premium prices for questionable-quality containers.
How Sea Can Guys Solves This:
- We maintain a large local inventory of certified Wind & Water Tight (WWT) 20-foot containers.
- Our regional hubs across Atlantic Canada ensure faster availability and shorter delivery windows.
- We offer transparent, upfront pricing—no hidden fees, no last-minute price hikes.
- Flexible rental terms mean you only pay for the time you actually need.
At Sea Can Guys, you can reserve your container quickly and stay on budget, with no compromise on quality.
2. Complex Permit and Compliance Processes
Not every city or town treats storage containers the same. Some municipalities require permits; others have placement rules or time limits.
How Sea Can Guys Solves This:
- Our team advises homeowners on local regulations before you rent.
- We provide spec sheets and documentation to support simple permit applications.
- Our containers often qualify as temporary structures, making compliance easier.
- We help plan
container placement to minimize visibility and maximize convenience.
Navigating the red tape shouldn’t slow you down—and with Sea Can Guys, it doesn’t have to.
3. Insufficient On-Site Amenities
Not all storage containers are created equal. Without the right features, your belongings could suffer from condensation, extreme temperatures, or even pests.
How Sea Can Guys Solves This:
- We offer ventilated containers to reduce humidity and prevent moisture damage.
- Insulation options are available for sensitive goods or long-term storage.
- Our containers are equipped with tight-sealing doors and weather-resistant construction.
- Need lighting or shelving? Customizable upgrades are available to make your container even more functional.
You’re not just renting space—you’re protecting what matters. We make sure it’s done right.
4. Concerns About Safety and Security
Homeowners often worry about keeping their valuable belongings safe while stored outdoors. Theft, vandalism, and weather damage are all valid concerns.
How Sea Can Guys Solves This:
- All 20-foot rentals come equipped with heavy-duty locking bars.
- Optional lockboxes protect padlocks from bolt cutters and tampering.
- Strategic delivery guidance ensures optimal container placement for safety and visibility.
- Reinforced doors and rust-resistant seals give you an added layer of protection.
Your possessions deserve more than just a metal box—they deserve a true security solution.
