We recently supplied and delivered 4 x no. new (1 trip) 20ft self storage specification containers to a farm site in Leicestershire.
We supplied our ‘self storage’ specification containers that are specifically built with storage of high value goods in mind. These units are RAL 6007 bottle green, which helps blend into the farmyards surroundings.
- 18 air vents for max air flow (prevents build up of condensation)
- 3 locking bar ‘easy open doors’ with waist height opening handle and rubber coating
- Slimline factory fitted lockboxes for maximum security (prevents theft/ break ins)
- Coated PSF bamboo flooring (easy clean)
- Forklift pockets (can be moved on site with fork lift truck if needed)
For this delivery, an articulated HIAB lorry was used to crane the containers into position. One of the 20ft units required careful lifting and placement over a wall adjacent to the external farmyard road. Our hauliers have long reach cranes allowing for lifting of distances up to 15 metres depending on what lorry is used.
The containers were placed on concrete breezeblocks to ensure each unit is entirely level (to avoid any racking/ issues with doors). We always recommend you use concrete blocks/ timber blocks or large, level bricks in order to ensure the container is placed efficiently and correctly. The ground needs to also be level and hardstanding, to ensure the unit does not sink!
This was the second container order from our customer Bradshaw Joinery, and we thank you for there continued custom!
