Thinking of renting a portable storage option like PODS®? While those sorts of solutions might be more famous, if you’re in Washington State renting an enclosed trailer from Good Sales and Rentals might just be the choice that saves time, money, and headaches. 

Let’s compare enclosed Good Trailers to portable storage options.

Loading & Unloading

Let’s start with the area where, to be fair, our hydraulic drop deck trailers are pretty comparable with popular portable storage options. Both offer ground-level loading, which is the easiest form of loading out there.

This is especially helpful if you’re a homeowner who is DIYing a moving or clean-out project. Nobody wants to struggle up a five-foot, high angle ramp. Nobody wants to risk dropping their cargo, damaging, or destroying it. And nobody wants to risk back strain or injury.

To make your helpers happy you should choose ground level loading every time. And our hydraulic drop-deck system makes it easy for you to accomplish this task at the touch of a button. Bringing the trailer to the ground places the interior deck at a height of just 5.4″. An extremely short, low-angle ramp lets you make a quick step into the interior. It couldn’t be easier. 

Driveway Space

How do you feel about having a storage container that takes up your entire driveway?

Many portable storage options are big. So big that you’ll struggle to fit them into a single parking space.

And if you live in an apartment? Get ready to annoy the management company, your neighbors, and every Amazon driver who has to make a delivery to anyone in the complex. 

You’re probably thinking: but what if I need all that space? 

Our GT19HDX 19-foot-high cube trailer offers a generous interior volume of 1,047 ft³, roughly enough for a two-to-three-bedroom apartment, depending on your set-up. So, while our trailers might not be the right solution for everyone, they’re perfect for smaller projects. 

Option to Buy

Portable storage companies are never going to sell you one of their units, even if you love them. Even if they did, you won’t have the proper truck to move them around.

An enclosed trailer can be yours. To take anywhere. To haul any time. For work, for play, for your next move.

Some families move a great deal, and could really benefit from having their own solution in their own driveways.
