When you find you are in need of a portable storage unit, be sure to choose a company that offers a watertight and structurally secure mobile storage container. Find out how it's constructed. Is it made of galvanized steel and fiberglass, or it is designed with wood and tarps? Is it water, U/V and mold resistant? Can it withstand rain and wind? Also, inquire if the container has an integrated roof system or a roof cap (like a shoebox). What's the difference? An integrated roof system (with bowed roof) ensures the container will remain watertight and it allows for the natural run-off of water. By contrast, a roof cap design can invite moisture, mold and insects.

As you consider who you will choose to move your cherished belongings, remember it pays to think twice about quality and reliability.
