New 20ft Containers in Townsville

Home > 20ft > New > Townsville

If you're looking for a new shipping container, then you'll definitely want to consider a 20ft container. These containers are the perfect size for a variety of purposes and are available for hire or purchase from ABC Container Hire And Sales in Townsville.

One of the biggest benefits of choosing a 20ft container is the extra space it provides. With 160 square feet of floor space, you'll be able to store and transport more items than you would with a smaller container. This makes it ideal for businesses that need to move larger quantities of goods or for homeowners who need to store furniture, appliances, or other large items.

Another advantage of a 20ft container is its versatility. These containers are suitable for a range of applications, including storage, transportation, and even as a base for a tiny home. They can also be modified to suit your specific needs, such as adding windows or doors, or even creating a custom layout.

At ABC Container Hire And Sales, we offer new 20ft containers that are built to the highest standards. Our containers are made from high-quality steel and are designed to withstand the harsh Australian climate. They are also fitted with high-security locking systems to keep your goods safe and secure.

Finally, it's worth noting that 10ft containers aren't necessarily cheaper than 20ft ones. In fact, the cost per square foot of storage space is often lower with a larger container, making it a more cost-effective option.

If you're in the market for a new shipping container, then a 20ft container from ABC Container Hire And Sales is an excellent choice. With its extra space, versatility, and high-quality construction, it's the perfect solution for all your storage and transportation needs.
