20’ Standard Containers for Rent
When your business needs reliable, secure storage space without the commitment of purchasing, renting a 20-foot storage container from Minn Dak Containers provides the perfect solution. Whether you’re managing a construction site in Fargo, need seasonal inventory storage in Minneapolis, or require temporary space during a facility renovation, our 20-foot rental containers deliver the versatility and security your operation demands.
20-foot storage containers have become the industry standard for good reason. With 1,165 cubic feet of storage capacity, these units offer substantial capacity while maintaining a footprint that fits comfortably on most job sites and commercial properties. At Minn Dak Containers, we maintain a diverse fleet of both new and used 20-foot containers available for short-term and long-term rentals throughout North Dakota and Minnesota, ensuring you have access to quality portable storage exactly when you need it.
Our rental process is straightforward and designed with busy business owners and project managers in mind. We handle delivery, placement, and pickup, allowing you to focus on your core operations while we take care of your storage needs. From manufacturing facilities requiring overflow space to retail businesses needing secure inventory storage, our 20-foot containers adapt to virtually any commercial or industrial application.
New 20-Foot Containers for Rent
For businesses that require pristine storage conditions or want to make the best impression on their property, our new 20-foot containers for rent represent the premium option in portable storage. These units come directly from the manufacturer and have never been used for cargo shipping, meaning they arrive in immaculate condition with no dents, rust, or wear.
New containers feature several advantages that make them ideal for specific applications. The interior walls are clean and unmarked, making them suitable for storing sensitive materials, finished goods, or equipment that requires a dust-free environment. The doors operate smoothly with factory-fresh locking mechanisms, and the weather-tight seals are in perfect condition, providing maximum protection against moisture, wind, and temperature fluctuations.
These containers are constructed from corrugated steel with marine-grade plywood flooring designed to support heavy loads. The exterior paint is factory-applied and free from any corrosion, giving your rental unit a professional appearance that reflects well on your business. This makes new containers particularly popular with retail operations, event companies, and businesses that store high-value inventory or equipment.
Many of our commercial clients in North Dakota and Minnesota choose new container rentals when they need temporary storage that doubles as an extension of their brand presence. The clean, uniform appearance of a new container projects professionalism and attention to detail. We also find that construction companies often prefer new units when storing client materials or when working on high-end residential or commercial projects where aesthetics matter.
The rental terms for new 20-foot containers are flexible, accommodating both short-term projects lasting a few months and long-term arrangements spanning years. We offer competitive monthly rates with discounts available for extended rental periods, making new containers an affordable option even for businesses with budget constraints.
Used 20-Foot Containers for Rent
Our used 20-foot containers for rent provide an economical storage solution without sacrificing quality or security. These units are retired shipping containers that have been thoroughly inspected and refurbished for ground-based storage use. For many commercial and industrial applications, used containers offer the same functionality as new units at a significantly lower rental rate.
All used containers in our rental fleet meet strict standards for structural integrity, security, and weather resistance. We carefully evaluate each unit before adding it to our inventory, ensuring the floors are solid, the doors seal properly, and the steel walls maintain their strength. While these containers may show cosmetic signs of their working history, such as surface rust, dents, or fading paint, these characteristics don’t affect their performance as secure storage units.
Used containers are particularly well-suited for construction sites, manufacturing facilities, agricultural operations, and industrial storage applications where functionality takes priority over appearance. Many businesses discover that the cost savings of renting a used container allows them to rent multiple units or upgrade to longer rental terms, maximizing their storage capacity while staying within budget.
The versatility of used 20-foot containers makes them popular across diverse industries in our region. Farmers use them to store equipment and supplies, protecting valuable assets from harsh North Dakota and Minnesota winters. Construction companies rely on them to secure tools and materials at remote job sites. Retailers utilize them for seasonal overflow during peak inventory periods. Manufacturers depend on them for raw material storage or finished goods staging.
We maintain our used container fleet to ensure reliability throughout your rental period. Regular maintenance includes checking door mechanisms, ensuring weather seals remain effective, and addressing any structural concerns. Our goal is to provide used containers that deliver dependable performance and protect your stored items from the elements and unauthorized access.
Rental rates for used 20-foot containers are competitively priced to offer maximum value. We work with businesses of all sizes to create rental agreements that match their timeline and budget requirements, whether you need storage for a single season or several years.

Frequently Asked Questions
We offer flexible rental periods ranging from one month to several years. Short-term rentals are ideal for seasonal needs, temporary projects, or event storage, while long-term rentals suit ongoing operational requirements. Many businesses start with a short-term rental and extend as needed. We provide discounted rates for longer rental commitments, making extended rentals economical for businesses with ongoing storage needs.
New containers offer pristine condition with no cosmetic wear, making them ideal when appearance matters or when storing sensitive materials that require a perfectly clean environment. Used containers provide the same structural security and weather protection at a lower rental rate, with some cosmetic signs of previous use like surface rust or dents. Both options are structurally sound and secure—the choice typically comes down to budget and aesthetic preferences for your specific application.
While containers are incredibly sturdy, we recommend placing them on level, stable ground for optimal door operation and structural integrity. If your site has uneven terrain, we can often use leveling blocks or recommend site preparation to create a suitable foundation. Our delivery team will assess your site during placement and advise if any adjustments are needed. Proper leveling prevents water pooling and ensures doors seal correctly.
We can relocate your rental container to a new location for an additional fee. Simply contact us with reasonable notice, and we’ll schedule the move using our specialized transport equipment. This flexibility is valuable for construction companies moving between job sites or businesses reorganizing their facilities. We handle all aspects of the relocation, ensuring your container and contents are moved safely.
Absolutely. Our 20-foot containers feature heavy-duty lockbox provisions and swing doors with robust locking mechanisms designed to deter theft and unauthorized access. The corrugated steel construction resists forced entry attempts. Many businesses add their own padlocks for additional security. The containers are also weather-tight, protecting contents from rain, snow, and wind. For businesses with high-security needs, we can discuss additional security features and placement strategies to maximize protection.
