Why Hire a Shipping Container?

Purchasing a 20ft container is more suitable for permanent arrangements. If you buy a container on sale and later decide you no longer need it, you can resell it and recoup the cost.

With over 40 depots nationwide, SEA Containers can quickly and effectively deliver your 20ft container directly on-site using a HIAB crane truck or side loading swing lift. Transport to metropolitan areas is as quick as 24-48 hours, while other parts of NZ take a little longer. Delivery costs vary; contact our team for more information.
