Cottage-friendly storage

Why containers work well for cottages

Cottage properties often have:

  • Detached structures
  • Seasonal use
  • Valuable outdoor equipment

Shipping containers provide secure lockable storage that can handle Georgian Bay weather year-round.

Cottage sizing

  • 10′ containers

    Smaller lots and tight side spaces.

    Perfect for smaller cottage lots or tucked beside buildings.

  • 20′ containers

    The size most cottage owners choose.

    The most common size for cottage storage.

  • 40′ containers

    Maximum length when access allows.

Site placement tips

We help cottage owners plan:

  • Container placement
  • Gravel pad installation
  • Delivery access
  • Site leveling

Because many cottages are on narrow roads or wooded properties, a site assessment is often helpful.
