Packing and Loading FAQs
Do you sell and/or rent out storage supplies?
Yes! We offer a range of storage-related rental items, such as blankets, straps, locks, and hand trucks. Be sure to inquire with one of our representatives about these supplies when you’re renting from us.
Are hand trucks and dollies accessible at your facility?
Yes, at SnappyBox, we offer hand trucks and furniture dollies; however, availability is limited. Please ask our staff for item availability if you’re interested in these tools when you rent!
Do I have to bring my own lock?
You have the option to, but we also offer disc-pad locks for purchase. They’re $12.99 + tax.
What size lock is suitable for the containers?
The majority of standard padlocks are compatible with our latches. Alternatively, we offer circular disc locks that can be bought and delivered with your unit.
Are there any items that I CANNOT store?
You cannot store Liquids, Explosives, Flammable liquids, Toxic materials, or Perishables in SnappyBox containers. If you have any questions about specific items, please reach out to us. You can find a comprehensive list in our contract.
What is the weight limit?
Our container weight limits are as follows: 12’ Container = 4,700 lbs, 16’ Container = 4,200 lbs, and 20′ Container = 3,700 lbs. Additionally, our STEEL Containers can carry up to 28 Tons of cargo but cannot be moved when loaded.
Customers don’t need to calculate their content’s weight; instead, use the weight limits as a packing guideline. If you’re unsure about approaching the maximum weight, identify your heaviest items and search for similar items online to gauge their weight. Ensure that the total weight of your heaviest items doesn’t exceed 75% of the total allowed weight. Heavy items to consider include appliances, sofas, large entertainment centers, bookcases, bedroom chests, safes, exercise equipment, pianos, and pool tables.
