Buying a shipping container or refrigerated container (reefer), chiller, or freezer is more cost-effective than investing in permanent dry and cold storage. Almar can organise transportation via a third party to any location in South Africa.

Benefits of containers for sale

Cost-effective - buying a new or used shipping or refrigerated container is more cost-effective than putting a permanent structure in place which involves building permission, bricks, mortar, and labour.

Movable - unlike permanent structures, the containers can be moved wherever and whenever you need to. This is especially convenient when you are leasing premises or when your business downsizes or expands.

Stackable - containers can stack on top of each other meaning that you can add more as and when your business requires additional dry or cold storage.

“Almar Container Group supplies AECI with Isotainers for the storage of our liquid chemicals used in the mining industry. IsoTanks are the ideal transport and storage solution for bulk liquids, safely holding up to 26 000L. The flexible lease options work perfectly for our business and we enjoy simple, reliable and fast service from the Almar team.”

Subashni Pillay, AECI Mining Chemicals.

“The mobility and stackability of the Almar refrigerated container is ideal for our back-of-store space limitations, while the flexibility of being able to lease a reefer for as long as we need it, works well for our business. The service and efficiency we get from the Almar sales and technical departments is commendable, which is why they are our preferred supplier when it comes to cold storage solutions.”
