Portable Storage Containers in Riverton, Utah

Riverton has a special place in Velox history: it’s where we delivered our first full container to a house, more than ten years ago. Today it’s one of our easiest deliveries. Riverton sits right in the middle of where we work in Salt Lake and Utah counties, so our trucks are nearly always passing by.

Where it started

The first time we set a full container at a house, it was for a family in Riverton who had just bought their home. They had two units. At the time, Velox had a tow truck I was still figuring out, a jack, and a couple of dollies I had made by hand. I didn’t really know what I was doing, and I made it up as I went. The first unit took about two hours to get in place.

The family knew the business had just started, and they were patient and supportive the whole time. A drop-off like that usually takes us 15 to 20 minutes now, but we still remember who gave us the chance.

Who calls us from Riverton

Riverton is a real mix: families and couples, apartments and huge homes, and single-family houses of every size. The jobs are just as varied.

• Moves. Load over a week or two instead of one long Saturday, and we move the container once.
• Remodels. Your furniture stays dry and locked in the driveway while the work happens inside.
• New construction. Sold the old house before the new one is done? We hold the loaded container at our yard until you have keys.
• Restoration. After water or fire damage, crews load the contents into a container on the driveway so the repairs can start. Loaded moves get priority on our schedule. See our restoration partners page.

When another company ran out of containers

An older woman in Riverton had two containers from PODS. When she went to order more, they told her they didn’t have any. She called us and got three more from Velox, and she told us the price, the service and the containers were all better. If you’re in the middle of a move and run out of room, call or text: one person can add a container to your order in the same conversation.

Delivering in Riverton

Riverton deliveries are usually easy. Herriman and South Jordan take us longer, with more time going up and down I-15; Riverton sits right on the route we already drive. Our truck stays on the street, and the Mule, a small remote-controlled machine, sets the container where you point: driveway, side yard or gravel pad. You don’t need to be home if the instructions are clear; the driver contacts you before arriving. Not sure about the spot? Text us a photo.

Not sure the container will fit at your place? Try it in 3D with our driveway fit tool: drag the 16 ft container around a sample driveway, RV pad, curb or parking stall.

The container, and what a Riverton quote depends on

Every Velox container is the same size: 8 feet wide and 16 feet long, with about 800 cubic feet of space inside (15 ft 5 in long, 7 ft 4 in wide and 7 ft 1 in tall). It takes up about one parking stall, holds roughly a two- to three-bedroom home, and is rated to 7,500 pounds. It’s welded steel with sealed doors and tie-down rings inside. It keeps out normal rain and snow, but it isn’t climate controlled.

Riverton is inside our flat Salt Lake County rate, so there’s no distance charge. Your quote depends on how many containers, how many months, how many moves, and any add-ons like a lock or third-party coverage. No deposit. One-month minimum, billed by the full month, and the monthly rate doesn’t go up after the first month. Storing a loaded container at our gated yard adds nothing to the monthly rate.

Riverton storage questions

Can I add more containers in the middle of my move?

Yes. Most people fill one first and order a second only if they need it. Call or text and we’ll bring another.

How fast can you deliver to Riverton?

Next-day is often possible and same-day occasionally, because Riverton is on the route we drive most days. Book early for Friday afternoons, the end of the month and the days before a holiday.

Can I keep the container while my new home is being built?

Yes. Keep it at your current place or store it loaded at our yard for as many months as the build takes. The monthly rate doesn’t go up after the first month.

Do you work with restoration companies in Riverton?

Yes. Restoration crews call us for containers to hold a home’s contents during repairs, and loaded moves get priority on our schedule.

Is there a distance charge for Riverton?

No. Salt Lake County is one flat rate for us.
