Container Storage Units inMedicine Hat
Weatherproof steel container units — fire-resistant, individually locked, with emergency after-hours access available. The most secure storage in Medicine Hat.
Weatherproof Container Storage
Medicine Hat winters are unforgiving — temperatures can swing 50°C between seasons. Our steel container units are weather-sealed from the factory: no rain gets in, no wind-driven dust, no pests. If it matters, it goes in a container.
Each unit is an individual shipping container with a lockable door. You access it directly — drive up, open your container, load or unload at ground level. No shared corridors, no shared access.
- ✓Weatherproof steel construction — sealed against rain, snow, and wind
- ✓Ground-level access — load and unload directly at your container door
- ✓Individually lockable — your container, your lock, your key
- ✓Non-combustible steel — nothing to burn

Fire-Resistant Steel — A Genuine Advantage
Steel is non-combustible. Our container units are built from heavy-gauge steel — the same material used to ship goods across oceans. There's no wood framing, no insulation batting, no drywall. The walls, floor, and ceiling are all steel. Nothing in the unit construction can catch fire.
This matters when you're storing irreplaceable items — family heirlooms, business records, electronics, and fine furniture. Most self-storage buildings use light-gauge metal cladding over a combustible frame. Our containers are solid steel throughout, giving you a meaningfully higher level of fire protection.
Container Unit Sizes
Available container sizes are 8×10, 8×20, and 8×40. All are ground-level, individually lockable steel containers with heavy-duty swing cargo doors.
All other container sizes are currently unavailable.

Ideal For
Furniture & Antiques
Wood and upholstered furniture stored indoors stays dry and free from UV damage. Fireproof protection is an added bonus for heirlooms.
Documents & Records
Business records, legal files, and personal documents need a dry, fire-resistant environment. Our steel container units provide exactly that — sealed against moisture and non-combustible throughout.
Electronics & Appliances
Moisture is the enemy of electronics. Store TVs, computers, appliances, and audio equipment inside where humidity is controlled.
Seasonal Items
Holiday decorations, sports gear, camping equipment, and seasonal wardrobe — out of your home and protected until you need them.
Security & After-Hours Access
After-hours and emergency access is available for approved use through your automated gate code. The entire Railside Storage facility is monitored by CCTV, and every container is individually lockable — you supply the lock, you hold the only key.
The automated gate logs every entry and exit, creating a complete audit trail. And because we're the 14x Best of Medicine Hat winner, you can trust that our security standards don't slip.
