One of the most common questions homeowners ask when renting a storage container is: “How far off the ground will it sit once it’s delivered?”
At A-Verdi Storage Containers, all of our units sit about 8 inches off the ground once placed. This small detail makes a big difference in keeping your belongings safe and ensuring the container works exactly as it should during your project.
Why We Block and Level Every Container
When we deliver a container to your home, it isn’t just dropped into place. Our team carefully blocks and levels each unit using wood shims to create a stable, even setup. This serves three important purposes:
-
Smooth Door Operation
-
Proper leveling ensures the doors open and close with ease, even after heavy loading. Without leveling, containers can shift slightly, making doors difficult to use.
-
-
Driveway Protection
-
By setting containers on blocks, we protect your driveway surface from direct weight and potential marks or damage.
-
-
Moisture & Airflow Protection
-
That 8-inch lift helps with air circulation underneath the unit and prevents direct ground contact, reducing the risk of moisture issues.
-
Easy Access, Safe Setup
At around 8 inches high, customers can still easily walk or carry items into the container without needing a ramp or step. It’s the perfect balance of accessibility and protection.
The A-Verdi Advantage
Every delivery is handled by our trained team, ensuring your container is secure, level, and ready to use from the moment it arrives. Whether you’re storing furniture during a renovation or safeguarding belongings during a move, you can trust that your A-Verdi unit is set up the right way.
✅ Bottom line: A-Verdi storage containers sit about 8 inches off the ground, and that small lift makes a big difference for your doors, driveway, and peace of mind.
