Press Release Summary = The National Portable Storage Association is helping kick
off the NFL\'s 42nd season with suggestions for how athletic organizations large and
small can tap into the convenience of containerized storage.

Press Release Body = KANSAS CITY, MO. (August 28, 2007) - The National Football
League (NFL) is kicking off its 42nd season this September with a star-studded
roster that includes the likes of Peyton Manning, Randy Moss and Tiki Barber. If 42
seasons seems like a long time, consider that containerized storage has it beat by
nine years.

Even though containerized storage is 51 years old, sports franchises aren\'t ready to
retire this veteran player just yet. That\'s because portable storage containers can
help professional sports teams out of a space crunch, offering additional square
footage to store equipment, balls, bags and whatever else star athletes at any level
of the game - from pee wee to pros - may need in a hurry.

\"Portable storage has been serving the needs of the sports industry for years,\" said
John Finnessy, CMP, Executive Director the National Portable Storage Association, or
NPSA, a nonprofit membership association dedicated to the advancement of the
portable storage industry. \"When it comes to seasonal sports, universities, amateur
and professional teams alike rely on portable storage containers to keep equipment
safe, dry and in good shape until it\'s time for the next championship run.\"

Portable storage containers are also helpful to athletic organizations during
facility remodels and expansions. When the organization is making extra room for the
team, putting in new showers and lockers or even building an entirely new facility,
portable storage can help sports teams out of a jam. And when the amount of gear
swells faster than a sore knee after a hard tackle, portable storage can help sports
teams clear the locker room for new team members instead of new equipment. Portable
storage containers can even serve as temporary facilities for medical examinations.
These containers can be customized with shelving, large bins, and hanging
mechanisms. Once loaded, the containers can be secured for safe storage of the
team\'s favorite pigskin.

\"Portable storage is a true touchdown for sports teams and athletic departments at
universities,\" said NPSA Operations Manager Joel Rathbone. \"Soon after the football
season starts, we\'ll see basketball and hockey season get underway and baseball
season hasn\'t even ended yet. Portable storage is flexible enough to serve storage
and even some off the temporary facility needs of sports teams both college and pro
no matter whether the team uses a basketball, a bat or a puck.\"
