What are the power requirements for a 40ft refrigerated container?

This container requires a three-phase 460V electrical connection. It is crucial to have a qualified electrician verify your power source and install the appropriate outlet before the container is delivered.

What temperature range can this container hold?

Our refurbished refrigerated containers can typically maintain temperatures ranging from -20°F to 70°F, depending on the specific model and ambient conditions. This allows you to use it as either a freezer or a cooler.

What does 'refurbished' mean for a refrigerated container?

A refurbished unit has been inspected, repaired, and cleaned. The refrigeration machinery is tested to ensure it is fully operational and capable of holding a set temperature. The container is certified to be in wind and water-tight condition.

How much can I store in a 40ft high cube container?

A 40ft high cube container offers approximately 2,694 cubic feet of storage space. The extra foot of height compared to a standard container allows for more vertical stacking, increasing your overall storage capacity.

Do I need a special foundation for this container?

The container should be placed on a dry, level, and firm surface. Concrete, asphalt, or compacted gravel are all excellent options to ensure the doors operate smoothly and the refrigeration unit runs efficiently.
