At ABC Container Hire And Sales, we understand that buying a new shipping container can be a costly investment. That's why we offer a range of used containers, including 40ft options, at an affordable price. Our used containers are thoroughly inspected and refurbished to ensure they are in top condition, providing you with a cost-effective solution for your storage or shipping needs.

When you buy a used 40ft container from us, you can save money and still enjoy the benefits of a high-quality container. Our used containers are just as durable and reliable as new ones, but at a fraction of the cost. Plus, buying used is a more sustainable option as it reduces waste and helps to conserve resources.

A 40ft container is also a great option if you need extra space. With a length of 40ft, these containers provide ample room for larger items or greater storage capacity. Whether you need to store equipment, furniture, or other goods, a 40ft container can accommodate your needs.

It's important to note that 10ft containers aren't necessarily cheaper than 20ft ones. While they may be smaller in size, the cost of manufacturing and refurbishing them is not significantly lower than that of a 20ft container. In fact, a 40ft container may offer better value for money as it provides more space for only a slightly higher cost.

At ABC Container Hire And Sales, we pride ourselves on providing our customers with high-quality used containers at a fair price. If you're in need of a 40ft container for your storage or shipping needs, we encourage you to consider buying used.
