Portable Storage Hits Homerun at Baseball Stadiums

Online, April 16, 2010 (Newswire.com) - KANSAS CITY, MO. (April 16, 2010) - Another season of Major League Baseball is getting underway. The 162-game season is bound to excite sports fanatics from New York to California and many cities in between.

While sports fans drive around the stadium looking for a good parking spot, they might just see something besides cars. That's because portable storage containers can be found on-site at many stadiums, from little league to the major leagues, to store equipment and other goods. Indeed, portable storage containers help professional sports teams leverage additional square footage to store gear and retrieve it in a hurry.

"Although professional baseball is more than twice as old as portable storage, containerized shipping units have been serving the needs of baseball teams at all levels for decades," said John Finnessy, CMP, Executive Director of the NPSA, a nonprofit membership association dedicated to the advancement of the portable storage industry. "Portable storage units keep equipment dry when it rains, keep it safe during transport, and keep it ready when needed."

Beyond Major League Baseball, portables storage units come to the rescue of athletic organizations of all types and sizes when stadiums and parks are being remodeled or expanded. If a high school gym is being upgraded, or a new college stadium is being constructed, portable storage can serve as a safe haven for the team's baseball bats, football gear and other equipment. Portable storage containers can even serve as temporary facilities for medical examinations.

"Portable storage is a home run for baseball teams, whether professional or amateur," said NPSA Operations Manager Joel Rathbone. "Portable storage is flexible enough to serve the storage needs of athletic clubs big and small."
