At ABC Container Hire and Sales, we understand that sometimes you need something a little bit different for your shipping and storage needs. That's why we're excited to introduce our new 20ft side opening general purpose containers, now available in Townsville and surrounding areas.

These containers offer all the benefits of a standard 20ft container, with the added bonus of side opening doors. This makes loading and unloading even easier, especially if you're dealing with larger or bulkier items. No more struggling to fit everything through the small end doors - the side opening feature really opens up your options.

And don't worry about the cost - 10ft containers aren't actually cheaper than 20ft ones, so you're not sacrificing anything in terms of price. Plus, the extra space offered by the 20ft container means you can fit more items in, saving you money in the long run by reducing the need for multiple containers.

The general purpose aspect of these containers means they're suitable for a wide range of uses. Whether you need to transport goods, store equipment or set up a temporary workspace, our 20ft side opening containers have got you covered. They're made from high-quality steel, ensuring they're tough enough to withstand harsh weather conditions and keep your items safe and secure.
