Auburn is about 55 miles from our yard. Driven by Auburn University's continual growth, the city stays in near-constant construction — new student housing, campus expansion, and the research park along the university's edges. That kind of sustained building activity means a steady, real need for jobsite and overflow storage, not a seasonal spike.
We serve general contractors on campus-adjacent construction, property managers between the August student turnover, and small businesses needing overflow storage during Auburn's ongoing growth. If you're new to the area and comparing us to a broker-routed national chain, the difference is simple: we own our truck, and the person who answers your call is the person who knows your delivery.
Auburn University's steady growth keeps demand for jobsite and overflow storage year-round.

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.

Yes — August around the student calendar is a popular time to order in Auburn, so it's worth calling a little ahead to lock in the exact delivery date you want. We'll get you on the schedule either way.
No. Whether we're delivering the roughly 55 miles to Auburn or farther, we quote one flat, all-in number: for a purchase, that's the container, the delivery, and sales tax; for a rental, it's the container, delivery, end-of-term pickup, and sales tax. No fuel surcharges, no required insurance, no hidden fees.
Both. We sell IICL and One-Trip grade 20-foot, 40-foot, and 40-foot high cube containers, and we rent from our IICL-grade fleet — all delivered to Auburn from our Prattville yard. Renting and buying are both common here; which makes sense depends on your timeline. See our rent-vs-buy guide, or call 334-320-7071 and we'll help you decide.
