Shipping containers were, are and will continue to be one of the most efficient storage solutions. They can be used for so many applications: storage (duh), logistics, refrigeration and, these days, even homes, as we’ve all seen those trendy developments popping up around the country.

But if you’re not looking to build a home in a storage unit - and are looking for a more temporary solution - you will be thrilled to know that you can actually just hire a storage unit for whatever you need in the short-term!

Here are some benefits to picking up a 20 foot shipping container for hire:

  1. It’s a highly cost-efficient solution

The first thing to consider is this: do you really need to buy a whole new storage unit? In reality, no, as your company can just hire a storage unit and keep it for the duration you need it, thus making it a far more cost-efficient solution as opposed to buying an expensive unit that you will have no real use for once the company is done with it.

Renting a storage unit is a far more convenient and cost-effective solution for companies who don’t have long-term needs for said units.

  1. They are the space-efficient storage solution

This is one of the key reasons companies across Australia - and the world - hire storage units: they are just that space-efficient. If your company has found that it has a surplus of products or goods just getting in the way at any given time then it is probably time to reconsider your storage solution - this is where such units come in handy and they are a winner for companies across the country.

  1. They add extra security

Even if your property has a fence perimeter, it is still highly likely that criminals can break into the property and take what they want from your company. But with a reinforced storage container on-site, any criminals that find their way onto your property will be highly deterred by the corrugated iron walls and chain lock stopping them from easily accessing what may otherwise be an easy steal.

  1. You can hire them & re-use them when you need them

You don’t want to solve a temporary issue with a permanent fixture, and that’s why buying a storage unit as opposed to picking up a 20 foot shipping container for hire might be anti-intuitive. As a business owner, you will know that your storage needs fluctuate with each passing day, and it may be unnecessary to purchase a brand new storage unit when you may not need it in the coming weeks.

The flexibility of shipping container hire cannot be matched, as you don’t have to keep using it when you have no need for it and can return it to the provider once you’ve got your usage out of it.

What’s more, there are no time limits on how long you can rent the unit: you can keep it for one week, one month or longer depending on what you need to store and how long you need it stored for.

  1. You can accommodate your needs with a rental unit

With a rental storage unit, you won’t be held down to a contract that could be hard to get out of if you had otherwise purchased the unit. With a rental unit, you can easily return the unit when you no longer find any need for it, but this is the opposite of purchasing a unit, as companies might be reluctant to take it back once you realise you don’t quite have that specific need for it on a permanent basis.
