Home > Buy > 40ft > Used > Rockhampton

If you're in the market for a shipping container, buying used can be a cost-effective solution. At ABC Container Hire and Sales, we offer a range of used containers, including 40ft options, in the Rockhampton area.

One of the biggest advantages of buying a used container is the lower price point compared to new ones. While a brand new 40ft container can cost upwards of $5,000, a used one can often be found for a fraction of that cost. This is especially true when purchasing from a reputable dealer like ABC Container Hire and Sales, who thoroughly inspect each container to ensure it meets our high standards.

Another benefit of buying a used container is the availability of customization options. When buying new, you may have limited choices when it comes to features like doors and windows. With a used container, however, you can often find one that already has the desired features, or make modifications to suit your specific needs.

In terms of size, a 40ft container offers ample space for various applications. Whether you need it for storage, transportation, or even as a base for a mobile office or living space, a 40ft container can provide the necessary room. And contrary to popular belief, a 10ft container doesn't necessarily cost less than a 20ft one, making the larger size a more economical choice.

In summary, buying a used 40ft container from ABC Container Hire and Sales in Rockhampton can provide a cost-effective solution with customizable options and ample space for various applications. Contact us today to learn more about our inventory of used containers.
