We require any company who is renting a storage product to carry a general liability policy with a $1,000,000 minimum.
Our bills are due upon receipt. We bill in the early days of each rental period so you pay for your current month’s use, we do not bill in arrears.
Depending on the equipment ordered (new equipment, customizations, etc.) and our familiarity with your company, we may or not need a deposit to begin the rental.
We send our first bill as soon as the equipment is delivered. We always bill for the current rental timeframe and do not require rent payment before delivery.
Some products are prorated and billed from the first of the month. Some items are billed in monthly increments.
Occasionally Metro does buy used equipment. Call Us if you are interested in selling something we may want to own.
Delivery & Setup Questions
We can almost always have equipment delivered and setup within 3 business days and in more urgent situations as soon as the same business day.
Our facilities are generally able to deliver throughout the states in which they are located. We are more than willing to work with custormers for out of state deliveries.
Most municipalities do not restrict onsite storage, however you may need to check with your local permit department.
We will need access to a level, compacted surface large enough for the equipment to be set up. If you would like us to drop a storage trailer against a dock, you will need a dock plate to access the trailer. The customer is responsible for providing wheel chocks, fifth wheel locks and necessary padlocks.
We have a fleet of specialized equipment that transports and loads or unloads our containers. We need a cleared space at least twice the length of the container in order to load or unload. We cannot move a loaded container as our equiptment tilts the container in the loading process.
Because it takes specialized equipment and experience we cannot permit customers or outside vendors to move our containers.
We require the customer or an authorized agent be onsite for us to deliver or pickup equipment.
Call one of our friendly agents to arrange for equipment pickup.
