Trapp Rentals and Storage is based 22 miles away in Piermont, NH, and delivers new and used shipping containers directly to Thetford, VT — no third-party carriers, ever.
Thetford is home to two of the odder landmarks in the Upper Valley: Post Mills Airport, a small private field that houses one of the world's largest collections of vintage hot-air balloons and airships and still offers glider and balloon rides today, and the Vermontasaurus — a 122-foot wooden dinosaur sculpture built by local students from a collapsed barn roof, standing right next to the runway. The rest of the town is classic river-valley Vermont: mill villages like Thetford Center and Post Mills strung along the Ompompanoosuc, with farmland running down to the Connecticut.
Deliveries here split between river-bottom farmland along Route 5 near East Thetford and the smaller mill-village clusters — Thetford Center, Post Mills, and others — set back along the Ompompanoosuc. We'll confirm which village and what the road in looks like ahead of delivery day.
Every container is delivered on a hydraulic tilt-deck trailer and placed exactly where you need it — river-bottom farmland, mill-village lots, or back-road driveways included. Purchase and rental prices vary by size and condition — see the full inventory for exact pricing on each unit.

Thetford was chartered in 1761 and settled a few years later by John Chamberlin in East Thetford, right on the Connecticut River. Settlers spread out along both the Connecticut and the smaller Ompompanoosuc, and the water power of that second river built a handful of genuine mill villages within the town rather than one dominant center — a pattern still visible in how spread out Thetford feels today. The town later educated U.S. Senator Justin Morrill, whose Land-Grant Acts funded the creation of public universities nationwide, at Thetford Academy.
Thetford's mix of river farmland and small mill villages means we deliver a bit of everything — equipment and feed storage for farms along the Connecticut, and general homeowner or renovation storage in villages like Thetford Center and Post Mills. Because access varies by village, we'll always confirm the route before delivery day.
Thetford sits a bit further down the river valley from our Piermont yard, but it's still a reliable same-day or next-day delivery for anything in stock.
