How Richmond Uses Rent-A-Container Containers
With our full line of temporary steel shipping containers available for Richmondians to buy or lease, the possibilities are endless. Our versatile options, industry low prices, and superior customer experience make us the best choice for storing and shipping containers.
Use them for storage, turn them into a coffee shop, office space, or unique backyard project. Whether it’s one container or 1,000, businesses from education to construction choose Rent-A-Container. Take a look at just a few of the industries in Richmond that can take advantage of affordable shipping and storage containers.
Storage
Struggling to find space for all your stuff in the big city? Not to worry! With Rent-A-Container’s convenient storage solutions, you can live in Richmond and store all of your outdoor toys with ease. Whether you need some extra space for your carabiners and other rock climbing gear or can’t fit your kayak into your apartment, Rent-A-Container makes it easy to pack away your bulky belongings until next season.
But it’s not just residential storage – Rent-A-Container also has large containers for construction storage. Whether it’s a small construction project or a huge renovation, whether you need to store furniture or equipment or raw material, our storage containers get the job done.
Restaurants
Looking for fresh seafood? Look no further than Island Shrimp Co. Located in Richmond’s luxurious waterfront Rocketts Landing, Island Shrimp Co. has been bringing the flavors of the tropics to Richmonders since 2019. But the carefree flavors aren’t the only unique thing about Island Shrimp Co. – the restaurant is also made out of refurbished shipping containers.
Using a storage container like the ones we sell at Rent-A-Container is the perfect low cost, sustainable way to start out your culinary endeavor. Because they are reusable and cut down on the waste of constructing a new building, shipping containers are a great choice for local spots like Island Shrimp Co. Will you open the next cost-effective and sustainable shipping container restaurant in Shockoe Slip?
Freight Shipping
Located only about 100 miles inland of the Atlantic coast on the James River, Richmond is naturally a significant port city. The Port of Richmond exports products like coal briquettes, soybeans, computers, and manufacturing equipment by water, rail, and road to cities throughout the mid-Atlantic and imports goods from all over the world.
With such a bustling freight shipping business, the only question left is this: What will you ship or store in Richmond?
Home Additions
For its attractive location within easy reach of the coast, Richmond offers a relatively affordable cost of living – and that includes real estate. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t savings to be found – particularly when you swap your traditional home addition plans for a sustainable container home addition.
Companies like Custom Container Living have built everything from full container homes to handy home office additions away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the house out of shipping containers. Shipping containers make a great solution for extra space.

Patrick did a great job delivering the container. He placed it perfectly and gave me great tips about the container as well. He was very professional and friendly. I hope he will be available when I’m ready for another.
