# Portable Storage Awards

The NPSA Portable Storage Awards are yearly honors that NPSA gives to member companies and people in the portable storage industry. The ceremony takes place at the NPSA Conference and Trade Show. The 2027 ceremony will be at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas.

## Why it matters

Categories include Modification/Structure awards under and over $50,000, an Innovation award, Supplier of the Year, Portable Storage Company of the Year and a Lifetime Achievement award. Categories have changed from year to year, so do not assume a fixed list. NPSA says winners gain recognition through its newsletters, social media and email. Members can nominate, and NPSA offers a webinar on nominations and judging. A common mistake is to wait until the deadline. Prepare photos, project details and results early. Check the awards page for current rules and dates.
