But, why should you choose a shipping container to store your goods over other, more traditional storage methods?
The Benefits of Shipping Container Storage
- You can get dangerous goods and refrigerated options.
- They can be hired for long or short periods, or purchased to provide a more permanent solution.
- Containers are insulated, lockable and fully sealed, ensuring your goods will be protected against the weather and any pests, like rats.
- Shipping containers are completely dust-proof.
- Our shipping containers can be delivered to you, where you can load them up before we carefully transport the loaded container to our secure Perth self-storage facility.
- There are side or front opening options available, which makes storing larger items much easier.
Why do People Typically Buy or Hire a Shipping Container?
People sometimes want to do a shipping container modification, transforming an empty container into an office, home extension or even a workshop. However, most people hire shipping container storage space when they’re moving house, going overseas for a prolonged period of time or just have excess goods that they don’t have the space to store at home. Sometimes they’re looking for a temporary storage solution, while other times, they’re looking for something more long-term.
What Can You Store in a Shipping Container?
Both commercial and domestic goods can be stored in a shipping container. Some examples of typical items include:
- Furniture
- Sporting equipment
- Fitness machines/equipment
- General household goods
- Office equipment and goods
- Small boats
- Cars
