Do you need some temporary high-security storage? Perhaps you are having a house built and need to store some expensive machinery and personal items on-site while your dream home takes shape or you’ve hired or leased a specialist piece of equipment for your company, maybe you’ve ordered a large volume of bulky stock items that won’t fit in your normal warehouse. A long term solution might not be required, but you might be short of a few hundred feet of storage for a few months.
Often shipping containers are overlooked as a potential storage solution due to the permanent nature of ownership, you may feel that the investment is not cost-effective as you don’t need to own a container but need it for just a short term project/bulk stock buy etc or if you are building a house or extending a warehouse, what do you do with it afterwards?
At Billie Box we felt there was a need for a short term lease deal on containers, so as well as selling containers outright, we also rent out containers. The shortest rental period is just 26 weeks (6 months) and the smallest size is a 20ft container. Longer rental periods and different sizes are available.
There are many things you need to consider when renting a container.
1. Weekly Rate – We always offer a minimum hire period of 26 weeks from £16.00 per week plus VAT for a 20ft container. That’s a lot of secure container space for such a low price! Please see our rates for the different sizes available for hire: Container Hire
2. Container Size – We offer two sizes, 20ft and 40ft long. Again, the prices vary depending on the size of the container required and the length of the lease. Just click on the sizes above to see the many configurations we offer.
3. The delivery location – You will be required to pay transport and offload both to and from your site. Transport prices will start from £200.00 plus VAT each way (Delivery and Collection each). It all depends on how close you are to our depot. Here is a list of our depots across England.
4. Your site – You will need to ensure that whoever you hire a shipping container from is aware of these obstacles. Please do have a look at the video below that shows you how a container is offloaded from the vehicle. Please remember if you are doing building work around the container, the area must still be clear for the container collection.
5. Damage incurred to the container – When you hire a shipping container, you will be responsible for the insurance of the container whilst it is in your possession. There will be a ‘Write off value’ for the container on our ‘Hire agreement’. The container must be in the same state it was when you first hired it, so any damage or cleaning required will be billed to you at the end of the lease.
6. Locking system – We supply containers with a Lockbox (shrouded area on the double doors, where you can’t get bolt croppers at the padlock). The lockbox is included in the rental price, however, the padlocks are sold at £75 each plus VAT.
7. Extras – Condensation can be controlled by using Absorpoles, these are Calcium chloride based devices that are used to control the levels of moisture in the container, important if valuable items that can be damaged by damp are to be stored. We can help, just call us for a quote.
