Understanding Container rentals
What is a container rental?
It is when a 20ft or 40ft shipping container is delivered to your door with a Hi ab vehicle and positioned on your land so you can use it for secure site storage. This container will be rented to you for a period of time.
Types of containers
We supply a variety of 20ft and 40ft shipping containers for site storage on a rental basis.
The standard units are fitted with one set of double doors on the 8ft end. Here is our standard container rental price list.
There are other units available for hire eg. 20ft or 40ft Hi cube (9ft 6in high instead of standard 8ft 6in high) 20ft Opensider units (double doors on 1 x 20ft side and double doors on 1 x 8ft end only) and 20ft or 40ft Tunnel units (they have a set of double doors on both 8ft ends)
Other variations may be available subject to availability and can be priced accordingly.
Flexibility and Convenience
If you are renting a container on your site, then the convenience of storing right beside your home or business is perfect. Your goods are right there. No time wasting or fuel costs to use a van collecting and picking up goods off site.
If you are setting up a ‘Self store’ where you place a number of containers on your land and then offer container rental to your customers, you might want different sizes and configurations that can slot into small or larger unusable areas of your site.
Also with self store sites you can take a couple of units at a time and just keep adding when you have more funds to build your business.
The security of these units means you can just lock and leave with our high security padlocks and lockbox. Here is a video showing you how you can lock your container.
You can rent a container for short term eg. 6 months or long term depending on your requirements.
Benefits of Renting containers
- Cost Effective – renting containers can be more cost-effective than purchasing outright, especially for short-term or temporary needs.
- Reduced risk or maintenance – renting eliminates the need for upfront investment and reduces the risk of maintenance and depreciation.
- Scalability and adaptability allows businesses to adjust their inventory based on demand fluctuations. If you don’t need a container then you can just send it back. If you need more containers then, you can add to your inventory very simply.
