Portable Storage Trailers Delivered to You
When you are finished, Responders picks up the trailer. If your plans change, we can also move the loaded trailer to another location.
Need help beyond the trailer? Our local moving, long-distance moving, packing, specialty moving, and loading and unloading teams can help plan the moving and storage steps together.
Storage between a closing date or a ferry crossing to Vinalhaven or North Haven? Our Rockland movers page covers what that timing looks like.
You Ask. We Respond.
How Portable Storage Works
From request to pickup, here's what to expect:
-
Tell us where you need the trailer and what you plan to store
-
We confirm the right available size and an approved placement area
-
Responders delivers the enclosed trailer to the location
-
You load it and use it for as many months as needed
-
When you are done, we pick it up or move it to another location
Enclosed, Weathertight Storage at Your Location
Responders has eight enclosed storage trailers ranging from 12 to 28 feet. Each trailer is weathertight, secure and lockable, protecting your belongings from normal Maine weather while giving you convenient access at the delivery location.
A portable storage trailer works much like a PODS-style storage container, but the unit is an enclosed trailer delivered and handled by Responders.
Portable storage gives you room to work at your own pace, useful for:
-
Preparing for a move
-
Clearing space during a renovation
-
Staging a home for sale
-
Handling another temporary storage need
If the trailer is part of a move, Responders can pick it up and move it to the next approved location when you're ready. See our full range of moving services for help with the rest of your move.
