What is the difference between a shipping container and storage container? 

Shipping containers and storage containers are very similar as they are both constructed with robust, high-quality steel designed to withstand harsh transportation or weather conditions. Shipping containers are primarily designed for transporting goods across long distances and feature minimal customizations. Stationary storage containers typically offer more adaptability for your specific storage needs such as hardwood floors or temperature controls such as heat/refrigeration, etc. Wayside is pleased to offer both shipping containers and storage containers to fit your needs.
