Storage containers
Storage containers provide space for tools, equipment, materials and goods at business premises or construction sites. The PITECO catalogue includes storage modules, insulated options and shipping containers. The right choice depends on the items being stored, access requirements and installation location.
Storage module or shipping container?
Storage modules are available in different sizes and specifications; some models also have a flat-pack delivery option. A shipping container has a different type of construction. Compare the specific model’s dimensions, doors, floor and permitted loads rather than choosing by appearance alone.
What to check before ordering
- Storage conditions: are the goods sensitive to moisture or temperature changes?
- Access: door opening, dimensions of the largest items and loading method.
- Loads: total weight and the floor loads imposed by heavy items or shelving.
- Equipment: lighting, electrical installation, shelving and locking arrangements should be confirmed in the quotation.
- Location: a suitable base, vehicle access and enough unloading space.
Insulated containers and moisture control
Insulation alone does not maintain a constant temperature or humidity. If you store sensitive materials, discuss ventilation, heating and condensation control before ordering. Food, chemicals and other goods with special storage requirements need a separately assessed solution.
Storage container prices and delivery
Prices are confirmed according to the model, dimensions, specification and delivery address. Send details of the items to be stored, their approximate weight and site access. This helps us assess a suitable construction and agree unloading arrangements.
Frequently asked questions
Does an insulated container include heating?
Insulation and heating are separate features. Check the heating equipment and power connection requirements in the selected model’s specification.
Can a container store heavy materials?
That depends on the particular construction and permitted floor load. Provide the weight and layout of the items so we can assess suitability.
Can you deliver to a site with restricted access?
The access route and unloading options must be assessed first. Send site photographs and details of any access restrictions.
