How much does a 40ft storage container cost in Aurora?
Monthly rental on our containers runs from 100 to 250 dollars depending on size and add-ons, and a 40ft box sits at the top of that range since it holds close to twice the freight of a 20ft storage container. Delivery is a separate line item, typically 120 to 420 dollars for a month-long placement, and that cost depends on how far our truck has to travel and how much room it needs to maneuver on site. If you are working a job near Parker, about 19.1 miles south of Aurora, or out toward Watkins, 13.3 miles east, factor that drive into your delivery quote. For side-by-side numbers, check our full storage container rental page before you book, or run the math on our storage container rental cost breakdown if you are also pricing out a construction site services package.

That table reflects our measured range across storage units, not a single container size, so ask us directly for a 40ft quote tied to your Aurora address. Compare it against a mobile office trailer rental if you need workspace along with storage, since some crews rent both together for one job site.
What size job needs a 40 foot storage container?
A 40 foot storage container rental makes sense once a crew outgrows a 20ft box, usually somewhere past the framing stage on a house build or during a full office cleanout. Contractors running multiple trades on one Aurora lot often stack a 40ft unit with a roll-off dumpster rental, a 30 yard dumpster rental, or a 40 yard dumpster rental so debris and stored material do not compete for the same square footage. Retailers doing a seasonal reset, or families mid-move between houses in Aurora, use the same box for the same reason: it swallows more pallets, more furniture, more tools than the smaller option without needing two deliveries, and many pair the delivery with a standard porta potty rental for the crew on site. If your project is mobile or short-term, a mobile office trailer rental or a temporary fence rental around the storage footprint might round out the site plan. Whether you are near Cherry Creek, 16.2 miles southwest of Aurora, or working a lot closer to downtown, the delivery truck needs the same straight approach a roll-off needs, roughly 60 feet of clearance, so measure your access before delivery day, and see our dumpster sizes and dimensions page if you are comparing footprints.
Where can I get a 40ft storage container delivered near me?
Aurora Porta Pros delivers 40ft storage containers across Aurora and the towns we already service, including Aetna Estates 4.7 miles northeast, Four Square Mile 12.0 miles west, and Centennial 23.3 miles southwest. Every delivery needs a flat, stable surface, consistent with ADA Standards 302.1 language on stable, firm, slip-resistant ground, even though that standard is written for accessible routes rather than freight. Confirm your exact address on our service areas page, and if you are outside Aurora proper, our porta potty rental Aurora hub links out to the closest covered towns, including porta potty rental in Greenwood Village and porta potty rental in Parker.
How long can I rent a 40ft storage container?
There is no fixed cap. Most Aurora customers rent monthly, and our pricing table reflects that monthly rate structure. Long construction phases sometimes run six months or more on the same container, while a moving job might only need it for a few weeks between closings, similar to how a short temporary fence rental job might only need a few days on site.
Do I need a permit to place a container on my property?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before delivery. On private property, most residential and commercial lots do not require anything extra, but check your specific parking configuration with our dispatch team first, especially with a full-size 40ft box, and see our porta potty permit requirements page for how we handle similar questions on other equipment.
Can I get a 40 foot storage container rental near California or Texas job sites?
Aurora Porta Pros only services Aurora, Colorado and the nearby towns listed on our service areas page. We cannot deliver to California or Texas addresses, so search for a locally based container provider in those states instead, though our contact page can point you toward a referral if you ask.
What is the difference between a 20ft and 40ft container?
The 40ft unit roughly doubles the interior capacity of the 20ft storage container, which matters most for full-house moves, multi-trade job sites, or retail inventory holds. Both share the same delivery clearance needs and similar ground-stability requirements.
Can I rent a storage container and a dumpster together?
Yes. Many Aurora contractors pair a 40ft container with a 10 yard dumpster rental or a 20 yard dumpster rental so material storage and debris removal run on separate schedules without crowding one spot on the lot.
