Yes. A container rides in on a tilt-bed truck, slides off onto leveled foundation blocks at the field edge or beside the loading area, and gets locked with its welded steel lockbox before the truck pulls out. If a straight pull-in fits the truck and tilt-bed, we can set a box wherever the work actually happens.
The container rides in on a tilt-bed, not a flatbed with a crane. The bed tilts, the container slides off under its own weight, and it lands on foundation blocks set level so the doors swing true on day one. A welded lockbox goes on before the truck leaves, standard on every unit we sell or rent, nothing extra to ask for.
None of that changes because the drop spot is a field edge instead of a driveway. Gravel, packed dirt or a mowed patch of ground all work the same way, as long as the truck can get a straight run in.
A 20-ft container needs roughly 65 feet of straight pull-in for the truck and tilt-bed; a 40-ft needs about 95 feet. That is the real constraint on a tree farm, more than the terrain itself. A field access road with a clear run usually beats a tight driveway.
Placement rules on farmland are generally lighter than in town. Virginia's building code exempts containers used as storage, and county rules vary from there, so check with your own county or read our permits page before setting one permanently.
A Christmas tree crew compresses most of its year into a few hard weeks: cutting, baling, netting, loading. Everything that gear needs, twine, netting, stakes, spare baler parts, has to sit dry and locked from January through the next season's rush, then come back out fast when the season turns.
Steel handles that without the upkeep a shed carries. No roof to replace, nothing for rot or rodents to get into, and it can sit right at the field edge instead of a walk back to the barn every time someone needs a spool of twine.
A 20-ft, about 160 square feet, covers a season's worth of netting, tools and baler parts for a single crew. A 40-ft, about 320 square feet, handles a bigger operation running several jobs off one box: gear storage, a small workshop corner, and overflow all at once.
A used cargo-worthy 20-ft runs $3,200 delivered, and a 40-ft runs around $4,900. If the operation only needs it through the season, renting from $165 a month for a 20-ft or $235 for a 40-ft, month to month, often fits better, and in many cases rent already paid can be credited toward buying it outright later, worth asking about on the call.
