ABOUT THE CLIENT:
Nutmeg and Hive approached Boxtor as they required a long term storage solution to provide them with easy access to palletised goods, that could safely be housed within a secure, lockable shipping container. These goods required daily loading / unloading using a fork lift truck on site.
Nutmeg and Hive are a London based supplier of healthy, nutritious and delicious yoghurts!
ABOUT THE JOB:
When Daniel got in touch with Boxtor, we recommended considering a 40ft side opening (full side access) container, as these types of containers have cargo doors not only at one end, but more importantly sets of fully opening cargo doors that open all the way down one side of the container. This allows full side access into the container.
40ft side opening containers are not very common. There are very few of these around in the UK market, which means purchasing or renting one is not as affordable as a standard 40ft container. They do however offer so much more, with unobstructed access to the entire inside of the container along one side.
Here are some key benefits of this container type (full side access/ opening)
- Enhanced Accessibility: Full side access allows for easy loading and unloading from the side, making it more convenient for accessing items at the back without having to remove everything in front.
- Maximized Space Utilization: With side doors, you can better organize and access goods, maximizing the use of available space without needing to climb over or dig through stacks of items.
- Efficiency in Operations: Side access can speed up loading and unloading processes, reducing labor time and costs, which is especially beneficial in busy operational environments.
- Cost-Effective: When compared to traditional warehouse space, using containers can be a more economical solution for temporary or permanent storage needs.
- Eco-Friendly: Using shipping containers can be a sustainable choice, repurposing existing structures for new uses instead of creating new buildings.
These benefits make a 40-foot full side access container a practical choice for many businesses and projects, enhancing efficiency and maximising storage space!
End Result
We delivered this 40ft full side opening container with an articulated HIAB lorry. Our highly skilled driver Joe carefully lifted this large container over a fence and positioned it safely on some levelling pads which we supplied for the job. We received very positive feedback and the container is now safely on site on a long-term rental.
