What to Look For in Your Shipping Container: A Checklist 

When shopping for shipping containers in Newcastle, use this checklist to make sure the container will meet your needs.

Quality Standards 
At CBOX Containers, every shipping container comes with a Convention for Safe Containers (CSC) report and Pre-Trip Inspection (PTI) report. These reports guarantee that your container is up to code and ready for transport. 

Weatherproof 
Wind and watertight (WWT) qualities will keep your belongings in excellent condition, whether you’re exporting delicate goods by sea or storing important paperwork.

Security Features
In addition to lockboxes, our shipping containers are made of high-quality steel that helps protect your goods from thieves and pests.

Right Container Type 
Size isn’t the only thing to consider when selecting your shipping container, so let us know exactly what you’re looking for. A reefer container has built-in refrigeration to keep perishable goods safe, for example. Office containers typically feature windows and secure blinds. With flatpack shipping containers, you can disassemble them when they’re not in use. We stock all these shipping containers in Newcastle.

Customisations 
Potential adaptations include air conditioning, insulation, storage shelves, lighting and electrical wiring, plumbing, bathroom facilities, steel flooring and furniture. Just let us know what you need, and we’ll take care of customising your container.

Flexible Rental and Purchasing Contracts
Don't overlook the value of flexible payment terms. We offer short-term and long-term rental contracts, as well as finance leasing.

Our short-term rental contracts are available without a fixed end date for maximum adaptability. Long-term rental contracts, on the other hand, run for 3–5 years with an option to extend.

Finance leasing is a cost-effective solution where you can rent the container and have the option to purchase it at a reduced rate at the end of the lease period. And, of course, outright purchase provides total ownership and removes recurring rental costs. 

Delivery 
You can pick up your shipping container from our depot in Newcastle, or we can deliver it to your premises.
