Thank you for caring and helping local charities like us!
“We recently undertook a major renovation to our Haven’s Way homes with a limited budget and short time frame. David Lister and his team at BigSteelBox Calgary were amazing to work with.
They provided the steel storage container and all services free of charge, which really helped with our expenses and made the whole process easier for everyone involved. Thank you for caring and helping local charities like us!”

“I was born and raised in Calgary, and I love the diversity of landscape it offers. From the mountains in the West, dinosaurs in the East, lakes and donut shops in the North, there is so much to do within a 2-3 hour drive in any direction.
“Family is huge for me, and BigSteelBox is such a welcoming place to work. This is consistent from every employee. I look forward to working with such a dynamic team that supports the company’s shared goals. My motto is, ‘Enjoy what you do and aim for above and beyond service, for customers and staff.'”

I moved from Winnipeg MB to Calgary AB this has been the best and least stressful experience of a move. The prices are reasonable and the staff are incredibly friendly! Props to Jeff in Winnipeg, Mason and Savanna! If you rent a container they are available to access whenever, since customer service will give you the gate code! Absolutely incredible moving experience.
Having a BigSteelBox made the process of staging and moving our belongings a lot easier (though we still also got movers). The only hiccup was final pickup of the empty box - make sure you arrange this well ahead of time if possible, and discuss details like what to do with the padlock (if rented).
I would like to start by saying the agents that answered the phones or I had dealings with over the phone were all amazing. They exhibited professionalism, knowledge, understanding and in a truly caring way. The hold times were always short, and a real person answered. The same goes for the yard crew in Calgary, they were great. Other than that my experience wasn’t over all that good. The concept of BigSteelBox is great, however the execution lacked foresight. In Calgary at the time there were over 700 shipping containers and they only had room for 6 or 7 to be down a day so customers could gain access to their possessions. That’s less than 1%! Far less than is required. With the ability to only have less than 1% of the containers down at a time, caused delays in scheduling to get access to your sea-can. If you need quick access and or need to access your things multiple times throughout your storage, I wouldn’t recommend BigSteelBox. The inability to get to my things caused me to buy items that I already had in storage and those added up. Add that to their high fees and there was no bang for your buck especial with an in town move and storage. The cost was high for what you received; you only had limited access to your things during business hours they set out and that was based on availability, if the forklift broke down with no back up they had now way of moving the containers causing delays for access and moves, pulling your things out in a dirt and/or potentially muddy yard, the shipping containers are not climate controlled and the cost. I would have saved approximately $600 if I had gone with conventional storage and used my truck and trailer to haul my stuff with movers to load and unload. If they were to make some improvements, I think the potential is there for BigSteelBox to be great.
