Shipping Large Items? Save Money With Used Shipping Containers
Need a big and sturdy storage space for shipping or for keeping inventory
, but don't want to build a storage building or buy a new shipping container? It makes sense to consider a used shipping container. Security, portability and thick steel walls will protect your inventory or shipments nicely. Plus, you will only have to pay much less than you would with a new building or storage container.
You can get the container repainted to look like new if you are concerned about the appearance of the facility. There are some old models of used shipping containers which still look like the newer types so that repainting these old ones will make you seem to own the latest model of this container. In fact, some vendors of used shipping containers refurbish them to look and function like the newer models. And, don't worry about buying a refurbished, but non-functioning older unit. Find out the date of manufacture by looking up the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number).
Using older shipping containers and fixing them up is similar to repainting the walls in your apartment or the home that you recently bought. All kinds of shelves and fixtures may be attached to them, depending on the functionality that you want to build in. If you need to, you can also add additional steel reinforced walls for extra protection.
Imagine savings from 30% to 50% off the cost off a newer storage container. The amount of savings will depend on the degree to which the seller has refurbished the container. Without any refurbishing you can save even more and slash your potential expenses. On the higher end, with containers that are relatively newer and have been fitted with lots of functionality, your savings stand to diminish.
You'll be able to find a very inexpensive unit and customize it with the functionality that you need, if you are handy, creative, and have a basic understanding of simple metal works.
You can also save money buy not purchasing a unit if you need it only for a short time; storage containers are also available for rent. Obviously this is the best option if you just need to store something for a week, or a month or so.
