Why Aurora Containers Ship From Chicago
Used container inventory for Chicago arrives primarily as intermodal cargo moving between coastal railroads and local truck drayage through metropolitan Chicago’s rail hub, where western and eastern railroads interchange and containers originate or terminate. Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning identifies the gateway as metropolitan Chicago’s intermodal rail hub.
That matters for Aurora buyers because used units arrive through the Chicago market rather than being railed across the country for each order. Aurora is about 30 miles from that depot market, close enough for planned delivery while still showing the delivery cost for your exact address through the ZIP check.

20ft or 40ft Shipping Container for Sale in Aurora: How to Choose
A 20ft container is usually the better choice when access is tight or the delivery path has less room to work. It weighs 4,914 lbs, is 8 feet wide and 8 feet 6 inches high in standard height, and still gives you a full steel storage container footprint for tools, materials or staged belongings.
A 40ft container lowers the cost per square foot when you have room for the longer straight run it needs. It weighs 8,159 lbs. A 40ft High Cube uses the same footprint with 9 feet 6 inches of exterior height and weighs 8,747 lbs. Eveon's containers follow ISO 668, ISO 1161 and ISO 1496 standards.
Delivery in Aurora: What Your Site Needs
Most Aurora deliveries use a tilt bed, so the container slides off the back of the truck onto your prepared spot; flatbed costs less but you offload it yourself. Plan for 80 to 100 feet of run-out space for a 20ft container and about 120 feet for a 40ft container. The truck also needs 12 to 14 feet of width and 14 to 16 feet of overhead clearance.
The site should be firm, dry and level. Dry compacted gravel, dry compacted dirt, asphalt and concrete work. Mud, sand, soft grass and sloped ground do not. If the container sits out of level, the doors can bind, which makes daily use harder than it needs to be. Eveon can review delivery photos before you order, so you can confirm the spot before the truck is scheduled.
