REFRIGERATED CONTAINERS FOR SALE OR HIRE

Refrigerated containers are insulated containers which are designed to transport goods that need to remain at an ambient temperature. They are fitted with a refrigeration unit which is plugged into a power source on a shipping vessel (or indeed on dry land, as many people use them for domestic storage of perishable goods!). Refrigerated containers are temperature controlled and therefore used to keep stored items at an ambient temperature, be that freezing or chilled. Refrigerated containers, or ‘reefers’ as they are known in the trade, are predominantly used for the transportation of, or static storage of, food goods. However, we have seen them used for a wide variety of applications.

The standard temperature range for refrigerated containers is plus or minus 28 degrees Celsius, they are available as new (once shipped) or used units and in 20ft or 40ft lengths. We can offer testing before the refrigerated container leaves our depot and we can also provide an on site commissioning service to ensure that your refrigerated container is at temperature and ready to go when you need it.

TOP TIP When purchasing a refrigerated container, consider the time of year to get the best deal! Refrigerated containers are particularly popular with supermarkets around Christmas time as overflow storage. The supermarkets tend to start hiring them in October/November and keep them until January/February, as demand increases so do prices! Therefore, if you can, try and purchase outside of these periods for the best deals.

NON-WORKING REFRIGERATED CONTAINERS

When refrigerated containers reach the end of their lifecycle as a working unit, they become ‘non-working refrigerated containers’ or ‘non-working reefers’. The quality of the insulation utilised in these units means that heat does not transfer easily from the outside in and vice versa meaning that the units remain at a more stable temperature when compared with a standard shipping container. This, teamed with drainage, flooring and door features of working reefers make them ideal for a wide range of applications from storing wine to flour, paperwork to antique furniture and much more!

If you are looking for a high performing insulated container, consider a non-working reefer!

We have over 70 combined years experience in the container industry, with a focus on excellent customer service. We have worked with our suppliers and hauliers for many years and they too understand the quality of service we expect.
