Go Mini’s Delivery Prep Guide

Planning a move or needing some extra storage space in Augusta, GA? Go Mini's has got you covered! Whether you're relocating, renovating, or just need some extra room for your belongings, our portable storage solutions offer unmatched flexibility and convenience. Let's walk through the delivery requirements and some easy tips you can follow to prepare for your Go Mini.

The Go Mini’s Advantage

When it comes to choosing a portable storage provider, flexibility and ease of delivery are key. Go Mini’s stands out from the competition with several advantages that make the process smoother.

Space Efficiency

One of Go Mini’s standout features is our minimal space requirement for delivery. We only need 6 inches of space on either side of the container. This means we can place a container closer to the edge of your driveway or even next to another container.

Precise Placement

Not all driveways and lot surfaces are perfectly flat. Fortunately, Go Mini’s containers come equipped with four wheels, allowing for precise placement even on gravel, dirt, or grass surfaces. Our drivers can level and place your Go Mini to your exact specifications, ensuring it’s stable and secure without causing any damage to your property.

Preparing Your Container for Delivery

To make the most out of your Go Mini’s delivery, a little preparation goes a long way. Here are some practical tips to make sure delivery goes smoothly.

Making Room

Go Mini’s delivery system is designed with your convenience in mind. No matter which size container you choose, our drivers just need a path that's 9 feet wide, 15 feet high, and 40 feet long. Unlike our competitors, who need a wider clearance of 12 feet, our delivery system allows us to place the container in the most convenient location for you.

Since we only need 9 feet of clearance, if you're placing your container in a parking spot, our straightforward delivery system only requires one spot to be free. On the other hand, PODS needs a full 2 feet on each side and at least two parking spots, taking up unnecessary space without offering any extra storage capacity.

Check for Obstructions

Before the container arrives, inspect the chosen location for any potential obstacles that could hinder delivery:

  • Overhead: Look out for low-hanging branches, power lines, or roof overhangs that might interfere with the container delivery.

  • Ground Level: Make sure the surface is relatively even and clear of objects like sprinkler heads. If there are steep inclines, let us know in advance—we'll work with you to find a stable placement solution. Our drivers are able to level and secure your container so it is ready for loading.

When our drivers show up, they will check for obstructions for you and can suggest alternative placements if needed.

Choose the Ideal Placement

Start by thinking about where you'd like your container to be placed. The location can significantly impact your daily activities, so consider the following:

  • Residential: Make sure the container doesn’t block your driveway access or obstruct any paths you frequently use. You’ll also want to keep in mind that Go Mini's doors swing outward — think about which way the container should face for easy access.

  • Commercial: Evaluate how the container's placement might affect your business operations. Will it block parking spots or interfere with delivery zones?

Choosing the right spot from the beginning can save you time and hassle later on.

Understand Your Local Rules

Every area has its own set of rules when it comes to storage containers, and Augusta is no exception. At Go Mini’s, we do not require any additional paperwork or have placement limitations, though it is always best to double-check any local regulations or HOA guidelines regarding the placement, duration, and even the appearance of storage containers. By doing your homework, you can avoid any potential issues down the line.
