This is a turnkey portable storage container rental business with a strong asset base, recurring revenue, and significant near-term growth potential. The company owns a fleet of approximately 90–95 steel portable storage containers, all purchased new in 2019–2020, along with a late-model delivery truck and forklift. The business is well established, professionally branded, and positioned for expansion.
The company currently generates approximately $11,000 per month in revenue with net operating income of $5,700–$6,700 per month, and is operating at roughly 50% utilization. This creates a compelling opportunity for a new owner to significantly increase revenue without purchasing additional containers or making major capital investments. At higher utilization levels, revenue has the potential to materially increase using the existing fleet.
Operations are intentionally simple and efficient. The business has not actively invested in marketing or sales initiatives, leaving substantial upside available through basic digital marketing, partnerships with realtors, contractors, and moving companies, seasonal pricing adjustments, or geographic expansion. The business is ideal for an owner-operator seeking strong cash flow, or for a moving, storage, or logistics company looking for a bolt-on acquisition.
Assets included in the sale provide strong downside protection and include:
• Approximately 90–95 portable steel storage containers (2019–2020 vintage)
• 2022 Ford F-650 delivery truck
• Hyundai industrial forklift
• Brand assets, customer base, phone number, and operating systems
The business benefits from inflation-resistant pricing characteristics, recurring demand, and tangible assets that retain value. Operations can be scaled without materially increasing overhead, making this an attractive platform for growth.
The owner is selling the business to focus on other core operating and real estate ventures. Seller is willing to provide transition support and is open to structured transaction terms to support the right buyer.
This opportunity is well suited for:
• Owner-operators seeking a cash-flowing business
• Strategic buyers in moving, storage, or logistics
• Investors seeking asset-backed income with upside
Asking Price: $595,000
Seller financing or structured terms may be considered for qualified buyers.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 21
- Employees
- We have no employees in this business. Owners are currently delivering and movi
- Facilities & Assets
- Currently about 1/2 of the containers are store inside a leased warehouse facility with empty containers being stored outside the parking lot. The cost of that space is about $2500.00/month. The other containers being rented out are stored at customer locations. As owners of the warehouse facility we are willing to structure a lease that has fixed amount but also flex space when additional inside storage is needed. Assets include low hour 2014 Hyundai Fork Lift, 2022 F-650, & 90-95 containers most purchased in 2019-2021
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The business serves a ~50-mile radius around Mansfield, Ohio, including realtors, restoration companies, contractors, DIY homeowners, retail overflow, and customers moving with storage needs. National competitors such as PODS and Go Mini’s operate outside the market, resulting in higher delivery fees and longer lead times. This business differentiates with local presence, competitive pricing, and guaranteed delivery within 24 hours. Margins are strong, with additional upside through organic and referral-based marketing.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Currently 40–45 containers are rented, generating approximately $10,000–$11,000 in monthly storage revenue, excluding delivery and pickup fees. No marketing investment is currently in place, creating immediate upside through basic digital, organic, and referral marketing. The business operates with quality containers, a strong local reputation, and established relationships with contractors, movers, realtors, and repeat customers. With low local competition and underutilized inventory, revenue growth can be achieved without additional capital investment.
