Asheville sits east of us across the state line, reached along I-40 through the Pigeon River Gorge. It is one of the areas we are asked about most often outside Tennessee.
What containers are used for here
- Storage for small businesses, makers and studios around the River Arts District and the surrounding commercial areas
- Secure site storage for the steady amount of building and renovation work in the city
- Household storage on properties with no basement or garage
- Equipment and supply storage for farms and smallholdings in the valleys around the city
- Container conversions for workshops, studios and storage buildings
Mountain property access
Buncombe County property is frequently on a slope, and many homes are reached by narrow, winding drives with limited turning room. A tilt-bed delivery truck needs a straight, firm, reasonably level run to place a container, and a drive that a car handles comfortably can still be impossible for a loaded truck.
If your property is up a mountain drive, send photographs or a short video taken from the road inward before you choose a container size. It is a far better use of everyone's time than discovering the problem on delivery day. A 20ft container is often placeable where a 40ft is not, and sometimes the practical answer is to set the container lower down the property.
Local rules and conversions
Asheville and Buncombe County each set their own requirements, and container conversions in particular are treated differently from plain storage. If you are planning anything occupied, plumbed or wired, speak to the relevant planning office before you order. We cannot predict how your parcel will be assessed.
Give us the address, the intended use and a description of the drive, and we will confirm what is available.
