40ft Shipping Container Storage Melbourne

We are proud to be a 100% Australian-owned company, with extensive experience renting out top-quality shipping containers since 2002. We have standard 20ft containers and smaller-sized units that conform to industry standards and available at highly competitive prices. Having said that, you may be wondering why we don’t offer 40 foot storage containers.

We often get asked about it and we have a simple and straightforward reply:

Do you provide 40ft container storage near me?

Most people do not realise what is needed to organize a 40ft container for storage, you need an incredible amount of access, it is also much more costly as you need a much bigger truck and a much bigger forklift. That is why we strongly recommend, in most cases, that it is much better that we can provide two 20ft containers as an alternative to save on costs & time. With more than two decades of experience under our belt, we know the ins and outs of the trade and we understand what works and which doesn’t.

Make no mistake about it though. 40 foot storage containers are the biggest standard-sized containers and they have a capacity of 67.7 cubic metres. That’s enough room to accommodate the contents of 3 to 4 bedroom homes.

There’s no denying that a 40ft storage container offers distinct advantages but based on experience and client feedback, hiring two 20ft containers is the more convenient and economical choice.

Think You Need 40 Foot Container Storage? Few Reasons to Reconsider…

When you have a ton of items to store, you may find yourself considering 40ft shipping container storage. Clocking in at double the cubic volume of a 20ft container, a 40 footer may seem the logical choice. Well, not exactly. Here are a couple of reasons you may want to reconsider.

Tough to Transport – 40 foot storage containers often weigh over 3719 kg, and because of this they are typically transported using semi-trucks or loaded onto flatbed trailers pulled by passenger trucks. The process of loading also often involves the use of a crane.

If you manage to securely load the container, delivering it presents another problem especially if the truck needs to pass through narrow residential streets. Likewise, given the sheer size of a 40ft storage container, there are limited ways on how it can be dropped off.

The bottom line is that all such hassles can be avoided with the use of 2 of our 20ft shipping containers. They can provide the same amount of space without the difficulty presented by restricted access and maneuverability associated with the use of 40 foot storage containers.

Not Cost-Efficient in Most Cases – The cost of hiring a 40ft storage container can vary depending on several factors. This makes it tricky to rent one while ensuring that you get the best value for your money.

In general, the price range is higher than a 20ft unit. If you won’t be able to maximise the 40ft container by using its entire interior space, then you will end up paying for more. Remember that you’re paying for every cubic metre, so the empty space you leave unused means money wasted on your part.

This is precisely the reason why we recommend the use of two 20ft shipping containers as they have proven to be more cost-efficient, especially among households and small to medium businesses. Lastly, if you’re on a budget and believe that you can fit all of your belongings inside our 20 foot containers, then it makes more sense to do so than use 40 foot container storage. Just make sure to pack your goods carefully, so they are well protected from damage.
