Landscaping is a year-round business in the Tampa Bay area. Landscapers need a secure place to store and organize their equipment after a long day in the sun. Enter the shipping container.  

The versatile containers can serve as a storage unit for your equipment, as a mobile office, and as a cool place where you can escape the withering heat in between jobs.  

Here are some benefits of using a shipping container as a hub for your landscaping company.  

 

Benefits of Storage Containers  

 

A shipping container can be a weather-resistant environment to house the valuable assets of a landscaping company — vehicles, equipment, and documents.  

There are multiple uses for a durable steel shipping container, including: 

  • Storage for lawnmowers, and other landscaping equipment  
  • Office space for business documents and admin work 
  • A climate-controlled breakroom as a hub between jobs 

 

Durability 

 

Shipping containers are made of durable steel that will withstand harsh weather and landscape equipment moving in and out with minimal damage.  

 

Weather Resistant 

 

Storage containers are windproof and watertight. Containers also can stand up to hurricane-force winds.  

 

Mobile 

 

Suppose you need to move your shipping container — no problem! Due to size and mobility, they can be transported anywhere.  

 

Environmentally Friendly  

 

Storing landscaping equipment in a shipping container is an environmentally conscious use of a structure that otherwise would be sitting empty or tossed on a scrap heap. When you rent or purchase a shipping container from A American Container, you are eco-friendly!   

 

Use as a Mini-Office  

 

It might be time-consuming to be driving to your landscape business headquarters constantly. Save time and money by turning a storage container or a section of one into office space.

Take a Test Run  

 

Depending on your needs, you can rent or buy a shipping container from A American Container. To determine the size and best usage, renting a container will allow you to test it out to see if it suits your needs.  

 

Protecting Your Business Assets 

 

Breaking into a shipping container is difficult. To protect your landscaping equipment, A American Container offers multiple locking systems to keep your machinery secure. These include: 

 

DRP Locking System 

 

Our proprietary external lockbox system resists sledgehammers, pry bars, or cable. This locking system is welded to the container and requires a “hockey puck”-style lock.  

 

Cargo Door Lock 

 

This heavy-duty cargo door lock secures both container doors by locking the innermost vertical locking bars together.  

 

Hidden Shackle Hockey Puck Locks  

 

This lock is used in conjunction with our DRP Locking System. Made from high-grade hardened steel, these locks protect against sawing, cutting, or prying.  

 

Block Lock 

 

Also called the warehouse lock, this device has a stainless-steel armor plate on a brass body for protection against corrosion and weather. It is perfect for slim lockboxes on shipping container doors, warehouse doors, and connecting chains.  

 

 

Cargo Container Modifications  

 

Another positive aspect of a shipping container is that it’s highly customizable. They can be outfitted with shelves, workbenches, pegboards, lighting, air conditioning, and more. 

Perhaps you need a roll-up door so you can drive a lawnmower inside. Do you need shelving to keep your leaf blowers, weed whackers, and other equipment organized? A American Container can modify a shipping container to suit your needs. Best of all, when containers are delivered, they are ready to use!
