What sizes of shipping containers can I get in Philadelphia?
Every standard size: 10ft, 20ft and 40ft, plus high cubes. Standard height is 8’6” and a high cube adds a foot at 9’6” — a 20ft holds about 1,170 cubic feet and a 40ft about 2,390. All sizes deliver to Philadelphia in 3–7 business days.

Is it cheaper to rent or buy a storage container in Philadelphia?

Firm, level ground and a straight run for the tilt-bed truck — about 60 feet of clearance for a 40ft container — with no low branches or power lines overhead. Shipping Container World confirms access and clearance with you before the truck rolls.
