Top 7 Shipping Container Rental North Dakota — Compare Quotes

The Container Pros carries the widest spread of container types of any supplier in the region, from plain steel boxes to insulated and refrigerated builds. It also runs its own shop that cuts in doors, windows, and custom layouts. That range is rare for a yard this far from a major port. The company holds membership in the National Portable Storage Association, which few North Dakota outfits pursue. Two yards, in Ashley and near Bismarck, hold delivery times down across the southern half of the state. Rentals and sales run through the same family.

Double Duty Portable Storage and Movers earned national recognition from the National Portable Storage Association in 2016. Few independent yards its size receive that kind of honor. The recognition tracks with how the company runs deliveries. Reviews point again and again to clean units, on-time drop-offs, and drivers who handle the job carefully. Beyond plain storage, the company builds ground level offices and fits out construction office trailers, so a single call can cover both the workspace and the storage on a job site. It reaches the southern counties of the state from its Aberdeen base.

Dakota Mobile Storage delivers into every major metro in the state, from the Bismarck and Mandan core out to Williston, Minot, Fargo, and Grand Forks. Few locally owned companies here cover that much ground. The fleet is the other draw. Alongside standard storage containers, it hauls dry-van moving trailers and driveway pods, so a job can be matched to the right unit instead of squeezed into one option. Drivers bring ramps, blankets, and dollies on every drop. It is family run, and the same people answer the phone and schedule the haul.

Northwest Mobile has leased and sold steel containers out of Williston since 2006, longer than any other container yard serving the Bakken oil region. That tenure shows in how the units hold up. They leave the yard wind and watertight and built for the rough use of an active rig site, a ranch, or a busy construction lot. The crew also repairs units, handles custom modifications, and moves a container from one site to another as a project shifts. For oil and gas operators who need storage that can take a beating, it is a strong match.

Big Blue Boxes offers something few container companies serving the state can. It will haul a filled container off to one of its own regional depots and store it there, so the box never has to sit in a yard or block a driveway for months. That option comes from a depot and rail network the company has built across the Upper Midwest since 2001, when it started as a single family operation in Minnesota. The same family still runs it today, and they keep up a charity for hunger and housing causes that the founder began before he passed in 2024.

Go Mini’s leans into the move-at-your-own-pace style of storage. The company drops a container in the driveway, lets the household load it over days rather than one frantic afternoon, then moves or stores it on the customer’s schedule. Its in-state footprint helps too. The company keeps staffed yards in Bismarck, Fargo, and Minot, so a local crew sits near most of the state’s population. That gives it more locations inside the state than most portable storage brands working these markets. Billing runs month to month, and the padded-wheel containers roll off the truck onto a driveway without tearing it up.

WillScot backs its Williston yard with the largest portable storage and modular fleet in North America, and that scale changes what a local job can get. A regional independent stocks plain steel boxes. WillScot can also pull cold-storage containers, ground level offices, and container offices that arrive wired and climate ready. A single yard rarely keeps that kind of specialized inventory on hand. On a job that needs refrigerated space or a finished office on the same pad as the storage, the national fleet can supply it. Delivery and pickup run through the same network.
