Permits and local rules

Contact the City of Stockton Community Development Department within city limits, or San Joaquin County Community Development for unincorporated areas. Requirements depend on zoning, how long the container will stay and how it will be used, so check before your delivery date. We can provide dimensions and specifications for your application.

Climate tips for Stockton

Delta breezes help in the evenings, but summer days are hot – vents are recommended for any container used daily.

Preparing your Stockton site

  • Level, firm ground – compacted gravel, concrete or blocks under the corners.
  • A straight, clear approach of about 75 ft for a 20ft and up to 100 ft for a 40ft.
  • Roughly 14 ft of overhead clearance, free of wires and branches.
  • Someone on site to show the driver the exact spot and door direction.
