Is it possible to alter shipping containers?
Indeed, we offer modification services to create customized units for various projects and businesses. Our workshop team is capable of transforming containers to meet a wide range of customer requirements, from minor enhancements to significant conversions.
Minor modifications may involve the installation of windows to enhance light and airflow, personnel doors and roller shutters for improved accessibility, plywood lining and insulation to minimize condensation, as well as electrical work, lighting, and complete or partial repainting to refresh the container’s exterior appearance.
Comprehensive container conversions encompass bars, hotels, food service areas, workshops, offices, and confined space training units, demonstrating our expertise in modification projects. We are prepared to assist throughout the entire process, from the initial design phase to construction and final fitting.
What is the process for having my shipping container delivered?
For standard container deliveries, you will receive an estimated lead time at the time of placing your order. Should the container require modifications, this will result in an extended delivery lead time.
With nationwide delivery options available, the transportation and offloading of units are managed by one of our reliable haulier partners.
Depending on the size and quantity of the units, delivery can occur in several ways. An articulated lorry, which consists of two parts a tractor that pulls a trailer is the preferred choice for transporting large loads. Additionally, containers may be delivered using a lorry with a drag trailer or a rigid lorry, the latter being more appropriate when access is limited.
It is essential to ensure that the land is adequately prepared for the offloading of containers, with solid foundations established for their placement. A firm and level surface is critically important, as uneven ground may lead to difficulties in opening and closing the container doors.
How Much Does a Shipping Container Cost?
The price of acquiring a shipping container in the United States can fluctuate significantly based on various factors. To begin with, the state of the container can influence the cost. A brand new 20ft shipping container may currently range from $2,000 to $3,000, contingent upon the supplier. Pre-owned containers tend to be less expensive, but their price will vary according to their age and condition. Generally, a used 20ft container can be priced between $1,000 and $2,000, rendering it a more budget-friendly choice for those with limited finances.
Additionally, the destination of the shipping container can also play a role in determining its price. If you are purchasing a container from a supplier situated at a considerable distance from your location, you might incur additional delivery charges. Furthermore, should you require any modifications to the container, such as the installation of windows or doors, this will likely raise the overall cost.
It is important to evaluate whether you prefer to purchase or rent a shipping container. Renting can be a more economical solution if your need for the container is temporary, as it may be less expensive than outright purchase. However, if your requirement extends over a longer duration, buying the container could be more advantageous, as you will ultimately recover your investment.
