shipping containers

[Stephen Blair]

Ive looked into it and ill pm u the company and details when i find the email, but the 20ft container insulated was around £1600 including vat and delivery bud

 

That's a very good price, my best 1 was second hand, in lined £1600 plus vat then it was £350p v delivery and that was a good deal I thought. New they were £2k p v easy.

 

They are a great investment, I bought my first 1 13 years ago for a grand, it's as food as the day I got it:001_smile:

I hire one. It's about a pound a day! Got it from unithire. Brand spanking new

Heres the pics, just need to find the info

 

 

Also said there'd put insulation between the inner box and plywood!

[Stephen Blair]

Make sure they are vented. They look good

Well was looking at making a kiln hence the insulation, they offered a bunch of vapour traps for £200 i think bud

[Stephen Blair]

I don't know what a vapour trap,is, but without vents that's going to sweat and rot very quickly, for making a kiln you will need some kind of moisture extractor gizmo so shouldn't be a bother.

Thanks for all the info fellas, I reckon I`m way off the mark price wise though. I had no idea they cost that much so will have to have a re-think.

 

Appreciate it though

For a kiln you don't need the security of a container, an insulated truck body would be ideal and possibly cheaper.

You could hire one in and buy it off them at a later date minus what uve already paid. Also have you looked on ebay for lorry containers like the fridge /freezer ones??

Think a old mate bought one 2yrs ago for £700 then £100 for haulage, then sold the gennie
