Versatile Side-Opening Containers
This type of container is ideal for businesses that need easy access to their goods, as it features full-length side doors that allow for quick and convenient loading and unloading. Whether you're transporting oversized items or simply want to make the most of your available space, the Side Opening General Purpose container is an excellent choice.
One of the key benefits of this type of container is its versatility. It can be used for a wide range of purposes, from storage and transportation to temporary offices and even pop-up shops. With its durable construction and secure locking mechanisms, you can rest assured that your goods will be safe and secure during transit or storage.
Another advantage of the Side Opening General Purpose container is its ease of use. Unlike traditional containers that only have end doors, this type of container allows you to load and unload from the side, making it easier to access your goods and streamline your operations. This can save you time, money, and hassle in the long run.
At ABC Container Hire and Sales, we offer both new and used Side Opening General Purpose containers in a range of sizes, including 20ft and 40ft options. While 10ft containers may seem like a more affordable option, it's important to note that they are not necessarily cheaper than their larger counterparts. In fact, they may end up costing you more in the long run due to their limited capacity and lower resale value.
If you're interested in learning more about our Side Opening General Purpose containers or any of our other shipping container options, please contact us today. Our team of experts is always happy to help you find the perfect solution for your business needs.
