Shipping Containers - Info needed

Postby MrOizo » Wed Feb 08, 2006 9:45 pm

Does anyone know how much a container is.

An old non sea worthy one for storage is all i am after.


If you could supply internal dimensions of a 20' and 40' that would be much appreciated also.

Thanks.

Try contacting the local container hire/dehire depots for the shipping lines, I think Specialised Container Services and TSL are some of the names i remember, they do have containers which go beyond the state of use that they would need to get rid of somehow.

Also you can try blue wolf containers... They do long term, short term and sales of new and used containers... Have had a friend deal with them and they said they were great!!!

Ruakura Motors in Hamilton sells containers, about $2000 for a reasonable 20 foot I think

Oizo theres a place down the road in the O that hires them out, if thats easyer than buying one and moving it and storing it etc.

We've been looking for a couple of 20 footers for a while. Over $2000 is the going rate for a decent one. Plus delivery.
