Although moving might be a difficult undertaking, the development of mobile storage containers has made it much simpler. These storage units have been around for a while and have significantly changed the moving business. The development of moveable storage containers over time to fulfill consumer demands is revealed in the fascinating history of these containers.

Early in the 20th century, the first mobile storage containers were created as a means of rail freight transportation. Transporting items like grain and coal was done in these wooden containers. They were only intended for use during shipping, not for long-term storage. The first metal shipping containers were created in the 1950s. Steel was used to make these containers.
