The Fort Knox Unit Catalog — Every Unit We Rent

Fort Knox rents three things: a 20ft container, a 40ft container, and an outdoor parking space. That's the whole catalog. Below is exactly what each one measures, what actually fits inside it, and what it costs — so you can pick the unit before you call.

20ft Steel Container — $130/month

The small unit. Roughly a one-car garage worth of sealed steel space.

Dimensions20 ft long × 8 ft wide × 8.5 ft tall
Floor space~160 sq ft
Total volume~1,170 cubic ft
Door opening7.7 ft wide × 7.5 ft tall (double doors)
AccessDrive-up, personal gate code, 24/7

What fits: the contents of a 1–2 bedroom apartment — queen bed, dresser, couch, dining table and chairs, washer/dryer, and 20–30 medium boxes. Also good for tools, ATVs, motorcycles, and small workshop equipment.

Rent this one if: you're between homes, downsizing, storing seasonal or hunting gear, or you're a trade needing a lockable tool and materials box you can back a truck up to.

Dimensions40 ft long × 8 ft wide × 8.5 ft tall
High Cube option9.5 ft tall — one extra foot of clearance
Floor space~320 sq ft
Total volume~2,390 cubic ft (standard height)
Door opening7.7 ft wide × 7.5 ft tall (double doors)

Rent this one if: you're storing a whole household, running business inventory out of a mini warehouse, or you need shelving and tall items standing upright — that's what the High Cube is for.

All three units, side by side

Unit Dimensions Floor Space Price Best For
20ft Steel Container 20 × 8 × 8.5 ft ~160 sq ft $130/mo 1–2 bedroom apartment, tools, seasonal gear
40ft Steel Container 40 × 8 × 8.5 ft
(9.5 ft High Cube)
~320 sq ft $230/mo 3–4 bedroom home + garage, business inventory
Vehicle / RV Parking Open lot $100/mo RVs, boats, campers, trailers

Which Unit Should I Rent?

Find the line that sounds like you:

  • A 1–2 bedroom apartment, or you're between homes. Take the 20ft at $130/mo. ~160 sq ft is enough for the furniture, appliances, and boxes without paying for space you won't fill.
  • A 3–4 bedroom house, or a house plus a garage. Take the 40ft at $230/mo. Splitting a household across two 20ft units costs more and makes everything harder to reach.
  • Tall items, shelving, or you want to work inside the unit. Ask for the 40ft High Cube — 9.5 ft of clearance instead of 8.5 ft.
  • Tools, materials, and a truck that needs to pull up to the door. Either container works; the 20ft is usually enough for a crew's tools and materials, the 40ft if you're storing equipment or scaffolding. Both are drive-up with wide driveways for flatbeds and trailers.
  • It has wheels. Outdoor parking at $100/mo — RV, boat, camper, trailer.
  • Still not sure. Work through the storage unit size guide, or just call James at 435-828-7710 and describe what you're storing — he'll tell you which unit it fits in.

  • 🕐 True 24/7 access — personal gate code, 365 days a year, no restricted hours. Built for oil field shifts, hunters, and contractors who don't work 9-to-5.
