Lake Martin, Lake Jordan, and Lay Lake properties share a common problem: a lot of gear that only gets used part of the year, and not much dry, secure space to keep it in between. Jet skis, dock hardware, hunting equipment, tools for the seasonal maintenance every lake property needs — a shipping container gives you a locked, weatherproof spot for all of it, without building a shed you'll only fill half the year.
We deliver to lake houses and hunting properties across the Lake Martin (Alexander City area, ~50 miles), Lake Jordan, and Lay Lake regions. Common uses we see: off-season storage for boats' loose gear and dock equipment, hunting cabin storage for gear and feed, and general property storage for owners who are only on-site part-time and want their things secure when they're not there.
Because these properties are often harder to reach than a standard in-town delivery, call ahead so we can talk through your specific road and site access — lake properties sometimes have tighter or unpaved approaches than our standard clearance requirements assume.
Part-year gear and part-time presence make a locked, weatherproof container a natural fit.
Off-season storage for loose gear, covers, and dock hardware.
Secure space for gear and feed on hunting properties.
Owners on-site only part of the year keeping belongings secure while away.
A few minutes of prep prevents most delivery-day issues. Here's everything you need to know before our truck arrives.
Our delivery truck needs a straight, flat path with enough clearance for the tilt-bed to extend and roll the container off. Here's the minimum we need:
| Container Size | Required Clearance |
|---|---|
| 20-foot container | 80 feet from end of unloaded container to front of truck |
| 40-foot container | 100 feet from end of unloaded container to front of truck |
Picking a size, understanding grades, and knowing how to spot a bad deal matters no matter where the container is headed. These guides answer the questions we hear most.

Tell us the size, whether you're renting or buying, and where it's going. We'll come back with one all-in number — no fuel surcharges, no required insurance, no hidden fees.

Often, yes — call us to discuss your specific access before ordering so we can confirm our truck can get in. Lake properties sometimes have tighter or unpaved approaches than our standard clearance requirements assume.
Rentals and sales both work well here — many lake owners rent seasonally and pick up again the following year, or buy once and keep it long-term. Tell us your situation and we'll suggest which fits.
