Shipping Containers for Sale in Townsville
SCF's Townsville depot has a wide range of containers available for sale, that come in a range of conditions. With the port of Townsville just around the corner, we have access to a steady stream of new build stock and second hand containers.
In addition to this, our fleet that comes off hire and has reached the end of hire life are also available for sale. There are some great opportunities with this type of container. They remain wind, water and weatherproof, but are much cheaper than new builds due to their age. Take a look at our Container Grades guide to get a better understanding of the conditions of used containers.
Unlike major capital cities, block space in Townsville is often more than ample to store shipping containers on, anywhere from 8ft all the way up to 40ft blocks. On all this space they can be used for many different purposes, from additional storage for furniture, household items, garden equipment or car parts to a fully equipped workshop with plenty of shelving, internal lighting and air conditioning.
The benefit of buying a container is that it becomes yours to modify, tweak or just forget about.
If you're considering modifying your container, our Townsville depot team can do that onsite before your container leaves depot. So speak with us about your specific requirements and we can help you build your perfect container.
Shipping Containers for Hire in Townsville
Hiring a container makes perfect sense if you know you don't need a container forever, but you're also not sure how long you need one for. Most importantly, it is quick and very easy to get a container for hire organised.
What surprises most people is also the affordability of hiring a container. For less than a coffee a day, you can have a 20ft container on your site.
So what reasons do people hire a container for? Additional storage during renovations, or the accumulation of more stuff that no longer fits inside your house are two common reasons. People who are moving between houses also utilise containers for extra storage. Even businesses who need to store more office equipment, archives or goods take advantage of container hire.
It also grants you access to our newest stock, These are often our most visually attractive containers, with less dents, scratches or discolouration.
