4-foot storage container

It might be the baby of the bunch, but our 4-foot storage container still offers an impressive amount of storage space – up to 220 cubic feet. It’s ideal for moving items from a smaller living space or when you want to store items from one room. This size is a big hit with college students moving to campus housing for the first time. When it comes to storage space, our 4-foot container is perfect for storing or moving the contents of places that are 550 square feet or less, such as dorm rooms or studio apartments. The size is comparable to a 5 x 5 storage unit. If your still not sure whether this container is right for you, why not spend a couple of minutes and use our online calculator.

8-foot storage container

Making sure you know what size container works best for you can help make your move go much more smoothly. If you live in a one-room or studio apartment under 500 square feet, an 8-foot container is a great size to pack all of your belongings into. Or, if you’re a student remodeling a single room and need safe storage space, this 8-foot container is a great option. It is made from strong, sturdy steel and is weatherproof and watertight, so you can be sure your belongings are protected.

For a size reference, you can compare this container to a 5×10 storage unit or a 10-foot moving truck. Movers in Houston who only have enough furniture to fit a single room can benefit from this size storage container.

16-foot storage container

A 16-foot container is typically large enough to store all your furniture if you live in a home of up to 1200 square feet, with around two to three bedrooms. A small family or individual planning a local move across Houston will benefit from this 16-foot container. Alternatively, if you have to relocate the contents of a small office or are doing home staging, one of CEND’s 16-foot containers will meet your needs. Whether you need local moving services or are planning long-distance moving, a 16-foot container is a great option for those relocating larger amounts of furniture and belongings. This 16-foot container fits the space of a standard parking bay, which is about the size of a 10×15 storage unit or a 20-foot moving truck. With a larger size, you are also able to have a greater level of customization that aligns with your individual plans.
