Secure, Monitored Storage Facility
Our spacious facility is conveniently located just minutes outside the university town of Antigonish and offers easy, drive-up access to secure, weather-proof storage containers. Built for trans-oceanic transport, each container provides you with an unbeatable amount of storage space and with their wide, double doors are very easy to access.
Safe & Secure
Designed to safely transport goods across oceans and rail lines, these containers are built to last. Solid hardwood floors, welded steel lock box, and a ventilation system keep your goods safe and secure.
Easy Access
Smith & Fraser Storage has forty foot containers with double doors – providing you with easy access for storing bulky or cumbersome items. The weatherproof double doors provide unrestricted access to the inside and our ample facility allows you to drive right up to either end of your container. Our spacious lot provides ample room to maneuver the largest of vehicles – no tight corners, awkward angles, or limited access.
Big Storage, Little Footprint
Each of our forty foot containers have an interior storage space measuring 39′ 4″ long by 7′ 7″ wide – that’s over 290 square feet of storage! The eight foot, nine inch ceilings provide you with lots of head-room and the ability to safely store vehicles, appliances, and furniture. Need more space? Consider renting two units, side by side for ease of access.

Storage Container Customization
Looking to make the perfect storage building for your property? Tough, secure, spacious! We can fully modify your storage container. Custom doors, ventilation, windows, and more! Painting of weathered containers is also available.
Painting
A fresh coat of paint can do wonders for a used container that has seen one or more trips on the high seas. We can also customize the look of your new or used shipping container to better blend in with your home or surrounding buildings and ensure it matches any new builds or extensions you are considering adding.
Windows & Ventilation
Natural light and ventilation can help make any storage container a comfortable space for storage or a workshop. From louvered vents to the windows, we can customize your sea-can before delivery. We can also install the openings for any after-market add-ons such as solar powered fans or ventilation systems that you want to install after delivery.
Additional or upgraded doors
From roll-up doors to standard storm doors, we can modify the access to your sea-can to meet your needs. Need to turn your seacan into a bunkee or portable office? No problem! Need additional opening to better fit your workshop plans? We have you covered.
