What We Love About Cincinatti

Cincinnati, nestled between a set of seven hills and situated right on the Ohio River, has played a huge role in American culture and the economy for over two hundred years. Once the most densely populated American city, it is still the third most prominent city in Ohio, and it’s been repeatedly compared to such major cities as Paris or even Rome throughout its history. There’s plenty to do in this riverfront crossroads city– from visiting the beautiful public parks decorating the city to learning about anything from American baseball to the Underground Railroad at one of the many museums in the area. Whether you’d like to add a shipping container swimming pool, office, or shed to your home in or near Cincinnati or you need help transporting your belongings to your new home there, Rent-A-Container sells and rents a variety of affordable shipping containers in the area. With us, you’re sure to find a container suitable for whatever you’re storing or moving!

But entrepreneurs all over the country have started using shipping containers to make their dreams come true, using these containers as small restaurants, shops, or bars. Cincinnati is no exception– in 2021, The Fountain Bar opened its doors. This bar, situated on Fountain Square, is in a modified shipping container surrounded by dining tables, and there’s plenty close by to do all year round. Using a storage container like the ones we sell at Rent-A-Container is the perfect low cost, sustainable way to start out your own business. And thanks to their length, shipping containers are especially well suited to use as a bar. So if you’re thinking about establishing a bar yourself and want to find a way to manage it without drying up your wallet, a shipping container bar might be a great thing to look into.

Food Courts

We know that shipping containers can be used to create bars and restaurants– since they’re relatively cost effective and well-suited to use as bars, it’s getting pretty popular to find container bars here and there. But shipping containers can be used for so much more, too. Many cities are building shipping container parks and food courts. Once again, Cincinnati has hopped on this opportunity, too. Covington Yard, located in the south side of Cincinnati, is a beer garden and food court established in 2020 that is made up of a series of shipping container bars and small restaurants. The space aims to be a spot for the community to gather for events and spend time together on evenings and weekends. Setting up a small community of local businesses using shipping containers certainly provides a unique dining experience!
