Usually not a large security deposit, just the first month's rent up front, plus any delivery charge if your address falls outside our free 75-mile zone. The exact number depends on the size you pick and where the container is going, so we lay it out in full before the truck ever leaves the yard. Ask for the specific terms when you call.
Before you book a rental, the real question is not whether a deposit exists in the abstract, it is how much cash you need to have ready before the truck shows up. For most local rentals, that is the first month's rent and nothing more. There is no separate deposit sitting on top of it in most cases.
That is the plain answer people are usually trying to get to when they ask about deposits: what do I need in hand on day one, and is there a second number hiding behind the first.
Two things move the total you owe before delivery, and both are knowable ahead of time rather than a surprise on the invoice:
Both of those get settled on the phone before anything is scheduled, so the figure you agree to is the figure you pay.
The first month's rent is exactly what it sounds like, payment for the first month you have the container on your property, not a refundable hold-back sitting separate from the rent itself. If you are inside the free delivery zone, that first payment is typically the whole of what changes hands before delivery.
None of this is guesswork on our end. Give us the container size and the address the box is headed to, and we will tell you the monthly rate, whether you fall inside the free delivery ring, and what you owe before delivery, all in one call. Nothing about the number changes after the truck is already loaded.
Tell us your size and address and we will lay out what you owe upfront.
Same-day reply. We'll send a real number, a real delivery window, and any photos we need to confirm fit.
You'll hear back from us today (or first thing tomorrow if it's late). For anything urgent, call (276) 237-6144.
