What Can I Do With A Hired Shipping Container?

10ft containers are great for suburban areas

There are several reasons why someone would want to hire a shipping container, with everything from a robust storage solution to a creative pop-up kiosk for your business. In recent years, we have seen shipping containers make for greater uses aside from being the vital components of international shipment. 

The biggest benefit of shipping containers is their versatility. After this blog, you’ll have a broader view of shipping container potential, and you may even be inspired to hire a shipping container for your next project or business!

Short-Term Domestic Transport Option

Just as the original inventors intended, a shipping container makes for an ideal method of transporting goods across the country. If you have a vehicle that is safely able to carry a 10, 20 or 40ft shipping container, you should get in touch with the ContainerCo team to hire a shipping container for your large-scale shipment. 

If you have a company that requires the odd domestic shipment of large objects, renting a shipping container is the way to go. Your items may be a bulk package of large products, or your inventory may include products that are too large for conventional shipping.

Temporary Storage Solution

What better way to make use of a large, secure space than to use it as a practical storage unit? If you require a temporary solution to store your belongings, hire one of our highly protective 10, 20 or 40 ft shipping containers. 

Shipping containers are constructed with security and robustness in mind. As the original purpose of shipping containers is to have them shipped around the world, they are built to protect the contents from the elements. 

You may have a substantial amount of personal or business-related items that require a secure location – our Auckland shipping containers are available for hire and make for the perfect unit to ensure protection.

Modified Shipping Container As A Site Office

Shipping containers are gaining popularity outside of the export business, particularly in construction and property development. Make-shift site offices can be produced with modified shipping containers. ContainerCo has several pre-modified shipping containers that have been altered to suit the needs of an on-site office for any construction site. 

The sturdy and resilient nature of shipping containers makes them perfect for a construction site. Heavy objects are at risk of falling in these environments, so contractors, architects and site managers understand the importance of establishing their offices within a safe environment.

Pop-Up Store Or Kiosk For Your Business

Your business may be preparing for a new product or campaign, and you require a nifty setting to unveil it to the world. The versatility of shipping containers gives you the perfect pop-up canvas to showcase your newest items. Depending on the size of the pop-up, brand activation or product launch,  you can choose from our selection of 10, 20 or 40ft shipping containers. 

Some of our side-opening shipping containers can even allow you to open up your pop-up to the public fully. Set up shop in these ideal structures, which allow for excellent exposure in a location of your choosing.
