Shipping containers
in Reno, NV.
New and used 20ft and 40ft shipping containers for sale from our yard on Cocoa Avenue, delivered anywhere in Reno, Sparks, Carson City, and across northern Nevada.
A container yard in Reno, not a broker
When you search for shipping containers for sale in Reno, most of what comes up is a national broker with a call center and no yard. We are the opposite. ContainerNV by Modern Storage is a family-owned container yard at 14155 Cocoa Ave in north Reno. The containers on this site are sitting in our lot right now, and you are welcome to come walk the rows and pick the exact one you want.
We stock new one-trip and certified cargo-worthy used shipping containers in 20ft and 40ft, in standard and high cube heights, with standard, double-door, and tri-door options. Every container is inspected for wind and water tightness before it leaves the yard. See what is in stock on the inventory page.
Delivered across Reno, Sparks, and northern Nevada
Our own drivers deliver by tilt-bed truck and set the container where you want it: a driveway in Sparks, a ranch outside Fernley, a job site in Carson City, a cabin near Truckee or Tahoe. We check access with you ahead of time and quote delivery with your container, so the number you agree to is the number you pay. Delivery covers Reno, Sparks, Carson City, Minden, Gardnerville, Fernley, Fallon, Susanville, Truckee, and further on request.
Before delivery, read our short site prep and delivery guide. The most important thing is a level base, and a few minutes of prep makes delivery day a ten-minute job.
Who buys containers in Reno

New or used?
A new one-trip container has made a single ocean crossing and arrives clean, straight, and essentially unmarked, with factory paint and lock boxes. A certified cargo-worthy used container has years of service behind it, with dents and surface rust to match, but it is inspected, wind and water tight, and the best value per square foot of secure storage you can buy.
