Refrigerated Storage Container (Reefer) for Sale

A refrigerated container is an insulated shipping container with its own cooling machinery built into one end, holding an internal temperature independently of what the weather outside is doing. That makes it the most practical cold room in Australia for anyone who needs one somewhere a building is not — a packing shed, a mine camp, a festival site, a fishing co-op, a seasonal processing yard.

Australian Containers supplies reefers built with high-performance insulation and temperature control, so the machinery cycles less to hold the same set point. Less run time means lower fuel and power costs, which over a season is where the real money is.

Specifications

Getting more into the same box

Internal load bars let you carry a second tier of pallets, effectively doubling pallet capacity within the same footprint. On a site where you are paying to power the unit regardless, filling it properly is the cheapest capacity you will ever buy.

Choosing a size

• 10 ft — events, laboratories and tight sites; roughly 13 m³
• 20 ft — the general-purpose size, including dual temperature units
• 40 ft high cube — bulk cold storage at around 67 m³

Power and installation

Reefers need a dedicated supply appropriate to the machinery, installed by a licensed Australian electrician, or a correctly sized generator. Confirm your supply before ordering.
