Shipping Containers

Post by Robbie »

Hello all,

Some time back in the discussion on lab refurbishments someone mentioned that the school hired a container to store stuff during the construction time. Was it Bonnyrigg??

If so, where did you hire it from, for what period of time and what was the cost?

We are due to go through this "challenging" experience in June-July when 5 of our 6 labs and one prep room will be upgraded.

Love your help or suggestions. (Personally, I would prefer to hire a skip!!!)

No it was not Bonnyrigg, I also remember reading about that, do a search for Containers, perhaps that will help you. We are not being looked at :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: do not know why.

Howdy,
My school has hired a shipping container, it has all my stuff in it.
We hired it from a company called 'Taree Containers".
But you should try any hire place close to home first. They may be able to suggest a company.
I can't help you with the costing as the container is beening paid for as part of the refurb.
Goodluck.
Trish :D

We are getting the upgrade latter this year :clap3: :clap3: :clap3: . We have decided to purchase a container at a cost of aprox $3000 then when finished with it it is to go down to our ag farm and to be used as a lockable shed for equipment. The cost for buying v's renting buying won hands down. So check these before making a final choice.

we are purchasing from Tamworth as I said for aprox $3000.

All the best with yuor upgrade.
