Lifetime woodworker Lloyd Allen was in search of more storage for his shop and tools. So like many of our customers he reached out to learn more and purchase a used container to protect and secure his most valuable treasures, his tools.

On The Search Of More Room For Tools & Equipment?

For five decades, the Pittsburgh native has worked in various industries, but finds his joy immersed in the art of working with his hands, spending his days in his cluttered workshop, surrounded by tools, wood and unfinished projects.

We all know a person who is ambitious and optimistic enough to have lots of projects on the horizon. Someone who likes to tinker, fix things, keep themselves busy and always has an extra-long ‘to do list’. You may even be married to this person...

Their garages are never big enough, there are not enough hours in the day, and they are convinced they can fix anything if they put their mind to it. Craftsman at heart, they may even prefer the company of a broken chair, over a crowded bar. They find solace and fulfillment in the process of creation, and perhaps as they age, their projects become more ambitious.

40% of Americans Rely On Offsite Storage For Extra Space

Lloyd Allen, a passionate woodworker, and dedicated project seeker is among the nearly 40% of Americans who need to rent extra storage. However, unlike the 54% of Gen X individuals who rent storage, Lloyd's income has stabilized, prompting him to prioritize affordable storage solutions such as Eveon Containers. This becomes even more crucial for someone whose hobbies revolve around constructing and building various creations.

The proud father of three was on the search for affordable, wind and watertight storage for his lumber and tools when he stumbled across an ad for Eveon, received a quote and well, the rest is history.

While some would hesitate to buy a decommissioned shipping container for storage, not a man who understands the value of items well-made. For men like Allen, age and patina are a badge of honor, to be revered, instead of judged.

For many dedicated woodworkers, limited only by the lack of room for all their projects, owning a rusty 40ft HC shipping container is a dream come true.

Throughout Allen’s life he has made his living in various trades, but his wealth and legacy come from creating and refurnishing quality pieces. His endeavors these days include installing oak floors throughout his daughter’s home and restoring an old Christmas Sleigh he acquired a few years back.

We appreciate his 5-star review of our services on Trustpilot and look forward to following his most ambitious project to date...building a 28’ wooden boat by hand. If your ready to get started with your onsite worshop, please click below to learn more and acquire a real-time price.
