Same Day Response to Container Defect

The challenge

A forestry business in Braintree, Essex, needed secure storage for valuable tools used on multiple projects. As a result they ordered a new 20ft container from Boxtor

Due to limited site access, with overhead powerlines and nearby buildings, delivery required a skilled driver and specialist equipment. Boxtor’s HIAB lorry operator successfully navigated the site and positioned the container without issue.

However, upon inspection, the customer noticed a defect in the container’s flooring. This was an uncommon issue for the team and could be detrimental to the overall customer experience.

Our Response

The customer contacted us immediately.

Rather than scheduling a future repair or swap, our team made it a priority to resolve the issue the very same day. We located a replacement 20ft container in our stock, coordinated transport, and arranged for the new unit to be delivered that afternoon.

The faulty container was removed at the same time – no inconvenience, no delay, and no extra cost to the customer.

The Outcome

By the end of the day, the customer had the high-quality container they needed, installed exactly where they wanted it. The fast resolution meant their project could move forward without disruption.

Excellent customer service

“Excellent customer service. Dominic, Nicola and Val on the team were ultra helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The delivery driver Lee’s skill at deploying the container in the tightest of spaces with amazing precision has to be seen, really impressed with the service.”

He provided us with a competitive quote and made sure that the reefer was delivered as soon as possible. The whole process was seamless and we are very happy with the overall experience. We are looking forward to doing business with Boxtor again in the near future”
