United Rentals - Sparks

Oui. Standard sizes are 20’ & 40’ are available at all Storage & Office Solutions locations. Other sizes may be available and may include 10’, 16’, 24’, 45’ and 48’. Other sizes may need to be modified from standard sizes. These modified containers will not be CSC plated unless otherwise discussed.

Standard size specs below. Please reach out to your local representatives for other size specs. Learn more about shipping container dimensions and sizes in our article.

A standard 20' container will hold about 1,150 cubic feet. A standard 40' container will hold about 2,400 cubic feet. A standard 40’ High Cube container holds almost 2,700 cubic feet.

Most standard containers are manufactured using corten steel frames with corrugated sides and marine plywood floors. Containers have forklift pockets and are stackable by securing the four corner castings. Some earlier containers were manufactured with plank floors. Reefer containers (if available) have aluminum "T" section floors. A small percentage of new containers are manufactured with steel floors.

Custom paint jobs, extra doors, shelving, turbine vents, partitions, insulation, HVAC, and much more are available in select locations. Please reach out to your United Rentals Storage & Office Solutions representative for more information.

Oui. Containers are built to be stacked and, through the 4 corner posts, most containers can safely support over 300 tons of static weight. The roof panels and side top rails can support only lightweight items without causing permanent distortion/damage.

Storage containers are not to be used for storing hazardous materials, ammunition, guns, illegal substances or perishables.

All United Rentals storage containers are equipped with four cam rods and four padlock hasps. Optional rod locks can be added for a monthly fee. Our unique PV3 Safety Containers utilize interior locking rods and a solid brass lock with a hardened steel pin to which you also have the option of adding an additional standard padlock.

United Rentals will maintain the unit throughout the term of the rental period. If you need maintenance, give us a call, and we will come out promptly. Many maintenance repairs are free of charge for the life of the rental term as indicated in your lease.

A 20' storage container needs approximately 75' of straight clearance. A 40' storage container needs approximately 100' straight clearance. The width requirement is approximately 12', and a minimum of 20' overhead clearance is required at the drop-off location. Any obstacles like trees and overhead wires must be cleared prior to delivery. Learn more about the ins and outs of shipping container delivery in our article.

United Rentals can deliver your container to you via a tilt-bed truck to your desired location. The driver will back the trailer and lower the end of the container until it touches the ground, then will pull straight out from under the container. Your representative will ask you if we should load the container with the doors facing the cab or to the rear of the truck. You must make that decision based on the desired location of the container door at your site. In confined areas, a lift truck or crane can be used to set the containers.

The only thing to be concerned about is that the surface is level, smooth, and firm. Our truck and trailer weigh over 30,000 lbs; a concrete pad, asphalt paving or other sturdy surface is preferred, and most drivers will not drive off a road or paved surface. If you need an off-road delivery, please discuss the road condition in advance with your sales representative.

In considering the resting location of the container, asphalt, gravel, grass, earth and concrete surfaces are all acceptable. The container is self-supporting at the four corners. Therefore, on soft, unstable surfaces we recommend each corner casting be supported with a concrete footing, railroad ties, asphalt or a bed of gravel to spread the weight. This is also very important for container doors to operate smoothly. Learn more about shipping container site preparation in our article.

We can move the container for you. United Rentals storage containers and ground-level container offices are portable, can be lifted with a forklift, and can be stacked; however, certain weight restrictions and damage liability limitations do apply. Consultez toujours votre représentant United Rentals avant de tenter de déplacer le conteneur vous-même.

GLO stands for Ground Level Office. GLOs are modified from our standard storage container, creating a portable jobsite office. Les GLO étant livrés et installés au niveau du sol, il n’est pas nécessaire de prévoir des escaliers, des cales et des points d’ancrage, ce qui permet une installation rapide et un accès facile. Les GLO sont conçus pour répondre aux besoins du client sur le chantier et se déclinent en de nombreuses combinaisons. Il peut y avoir des différences régionales entre les modèles, mais les types les plus courants sont les suivants : 20’ All Office, 20’ Office/Storage Combo, 40’ All Office, 40’ Office/Storage Combo and 40’ Double Office.

Our GLOs come standard with HVAC units, lighting, electric hookup and outlets, data ports, sliding windows with screens and steel bar window security guards, steel security door(s) with deadbolt(s), built-in work surfaces and file cabinets, planning space, finished floors and insulated walls. Des GLO équipés de toilettes sont disponibles dans certains emplacements.

Oui. Available extras include shelving, enforcer locks, workbenches, ramps, lighting, etc. GLOs can be outfitted with any extras necessary so they are fully equipped upon delivery. Les modifications comprennent :

• Couleurs de peinture personnalisées
• Built to customers design with professional workmanship
• Doors - man doors, roll-up doors, double doors, hatches
• Lighting - fluorescent, incandescent, low voltage
• HVAC - proven climate control systems protect materials & supplies from freezing and heat
• Insulation - offering savings in heating/cooling
• Partitions - solid walls, partial walls, removable walls, fencing, pass-through windows, and counters

Just like our storage containers, United Rentals can deliver your container to you via a tilt-bed truck to your desired location. A variety of site conditions can be accommodated; however, solid surfaces are required to drive on for delivery/set-up. GLOs should be placed on solid well-drained locations. Trucks and trailers will need approximately 100 feet of clearance to deliver, including the space that the GLO occupies.

Any service or repair can be made on-site by United Rentals Storage & Office Solutions service staff or through our nationwide network of vendors. Please reach out to your United Rentals representative with any repair requests.

Mobile offices are pre-manufactured portable offices that sit on top of a wheels-and-chassis trailer base with a hitch, which can be placed on almost any site or relocated easily. They are delivered and assembled quickly on-site and can be removed easily when you no longer need them. Because the office is elevated, you typically need stairs or a ramp to access it.

Several model types are available and are designed in a variety of configurations. United Rentals' standard mobile office trailers range from 8 by 24 feet to 12 by 60 feet. They are built with heavy steel construction and are thoroughly cleaned, reconditioned and weatherproof tested prior to delivery. A variety of sizes and configurations are available. Pour en savoir plus, veuillez contacter votre représentant United Rentals.

Mobile offices come standard with HVAC units, lighting, electric hookup and outlets, data ports, sliding windows with bug screens, steel security door(s) with deadbolt(s), built-in work surfaces and file cabinets, planning space, finished floors and insulated walls. Some models include plumbing, full restrooms and hot water heaters. Other options and modifications may be available. Pour en savoir plus, veuillez contacter votre représentant United Rentals.

Because the office is set on top of a wheel-and-chassis trailer base, it sits elevated above ground. Généralement, des escaliers et/ou des rampes sont nécessaires pour y accéder. United Rentals propose à la location des marches et des rampes en aluminium et en acier conçues pour répondre aux normes OSHA.

Mobile offices can be delivered using a toter truck by our experienced drivers and can be placed where needed on your site. Various site conditions can be accommodated; however, a solid surface to drive on is required for delivery/setup. Mobile offices should be placed on a level, solid and well-drained surface that is accessible for delivery trucks. Anchors should be used on all mobile office setups; anchor requirements are specific to the region and soil type.
