Understanding the 20ft Refrigerated Container
The 20ft Refrigerated container, often called a 'reefer', is designed to move and store goods that need to stay at a certain temperature. Inside, it's about 5.90 metres long, 2.35 metres wide, and 2.39 metres high. That gives you about 33 cubic metres of space inside.
These containers are often used to move things like food that goes bad quickly and medicines. The doors are a standard size, so it's easy to load and unload items. Plus, the container is built strong, so you know your items will be safe during transport.

Why Choose a Refrigerated Container?
Refrigerated containers offer a reliable way to keep your temperature-sensitive goods in prime condition. Whether you're in the food industry, pharmaceuticals, or any sector requiring strict temperature control, these containers provide a secure and efficient solution.
The consistent temperature regulation prevents spoilage, maintains product integrity, and extends shelf life. This is crucial for businesses that need to transport or store perishable items over long distances or periods.
Our containers are equipped with advanced cooling systems that can maintain temperatures from -25°C to +25°C, ensuring your products are always kept at the ideal temperature. The easy-to-use controls and monitoring systems allow for precise temperature management and peace of mind.
New vs. Used Refrigerated Containers
Shipping Containers of Leeds provides both new and used 20ft refrigerated containers. New containers offer the latest technology and are in pristine condition, ensuring maximum efficiency and longevity.

Our used containers are thoroughly inspected and tested to ensure they meet our high standards for quality and performance. We make any necessary repairs or replacements to ensure they are in excellent working condition before they are offered for sale.
Whether you choose a new or used container, you can be confident that you are getting a high-quality product that will meet your temperature control needs.
