Why Create Space

Step inside: marine-grade plywood floors over steel cross-members, vented and weather-tight from corner casting to corner casting. This is commercial-grade steel that withstands the elements and the job site — year after year, with zero maintenance.

The clean, weather-tight interior of a steel shipping container

Wind, water & rodent-proof

100% industrial-grade corten steel with smooth, weather-tight walls. Lumber, drywall, documents, and electronics stay bone dry.

High-security lockboxes

Lockable double cargo doors with welded lockboxes shield your padlock from bolt cutters. Theft prevention for tools, copper, and equipment.

Full-width double doors swing 270° for forklift and pallet access — load machinery, racking, or a whole workshop without a fight.

Tilt-free precision delivery

Our delivery system places your container gently and exactly where you mark it — no tilting, no shifting, no torn-up site.

Customer Reviews

Trusted by homeowners, builders & businesses

“The 40-footer showed up within two days and was placed exactly where I asked — didn’t even leave a mark on the gravel pad. It’s been bone dry through two Michigan winters.”

Sarah M.

Property owner, Galesburg

“We bought a 20 ft. container for our job site. The lockbox and the doors are serious — tools and copper stay on site overnight and we don’t worry about it anymore.”

Dan R.

General contractor

“I shopped the big national brands and brought Create Space their quote — they beat it on the spot and delivered faster. Straightforward, delivered pricing. Easy call.”

Katie B.

FAQ

Good questions. Straight answers.

What container sizes do you offer?

20 ft. containers with 160 sq ft of storage and 40 ft. containers with 320 sq ft, each available new (one trip) or used (wind and water tight). All have wide, easy-open double cargo doors. Call us for current pricing.

What’s the difference between new one-trip and used wind & water tight?

A new one-trip container made a single ocean voyage from the factory — essentially new, with minimal cosmetic wear. A used container has seen service but is inspected and guaranteed wind & water tight. Used is the better value for on-site storage; one-trip is the pick if appearance matters or you’re modifying it.

How fast can you deliver my container?

Most deliveries across Michigan happen typically within 2–3 days of your order. Once your quote is confirmed, we’ll schedule a delivery window that works for you — and you don’t need to be on site as long as we have clear placement instructions.

How much room do I need for delivery?

A reasonably level surface like a driveway, gravel pad, or firm ground works. Plan on roughly 60 ft. of straight clearance for a 20 ft. container and 100 ft. for a 40 ft., with about 12 ft. of width and 14 ft. of overhead clearance. We’ll confirm your site before we schedule.

Are the containers secure and weatherproof?

Yes — 100% industrial-grade corten steel, built to be wind, water, and rodent-proof, with lockable cargo doors and welded high-security lockboxes that shield your padlock from bolt cutters.

What can I store in a shipping container?

Contractor tools and equipment, business inventory, lumber and drywall, documents, furniture, seasonal gear — or use the space as a workshop. The marine-grade floor handles forklifts, pallets, and machinery.
