The driver sets the container at the spot you choose, such as a driveway, job site, field or yard, when the truck has the access and clearance it needs. Container One's Delivery/Dispatch department schedules a date and time after payment is received and the location, weather and access are reviewed.
From the North Georgia mountains to the Coastal Empire, Container One delivers wherever the truck has the access and clearance it needs.
Georgia covers roughly 59,400 square miles and 159 counties, and the ground changes under you four separate times between Rossville at the top of the state and the pier at St. Marys at the bottom. Metro Atlanta is dense, hilly and built on red clay that turns slick in an afternoon thunderstorm. North Georgia rises into mountain counties reached by gravel drives and switchbacks. The Fall Line runs a diagonal through Columbus, Macon and Augusta, marking where the clay of the upper state gives way to the sand of the coastal plain. South Georgia flattens into row crop country with real distance between towns. The coast is marsh, sand and tidal creek. Grade, ground and approach decide what a truck can actually set down, so the geology matters more to a delivery here than the road map does.
Rural or remote property? Container One delivers to farms, ranches, work sites and off-road locations across Georgia when the truck has the access it needs.

The container was delivered on the date promised. It was also delivered in the condition that we expected it to be in. And the driver was extremely helpful as it was delivered In an off-road situation.

What the rules actually say where you are, before the container arrives.
Georgia sets one building code for the whole state and then leaves placement rules to 159 counties and hundreds of cities.
Georgia spans three energy code climate zones and two very different moisture problems. The right insulation on the coast is not the right insulation in the mountains, and one mistake is worth avoiding in every zone.
Georgia has no statewide ban on container homes and no statewide permission either. A container home here is judged as a house, which means the same code requirements as any other house and more work than a storage container.
