Available specifications, brands and model years vary according to current stock. Tell us what you need to store or transport, which temperature range is required and where the container must be delivered. We will help you select a suitable reefer container and provide a tailored quotation.

New and used reefer containers for sale

A reefer container, short for refrigerated container, is fitted with a refrigeration unit that maintains a controlled internal temperature. Read more about how a reefer container works.

We offer both new and used refrigerated containers. The right choice depends on the intended application, required specifications, available budget and expected period of use.

New reefer containers

A new reefer container can be the preferred option when predictable condition, a long operational lifespan and specific technical requirements are important. Depending on availability, we can supply new reefers in different sizes and with refrigeration units from established manufacturers.

Used reefer containers

A used reefer container can provide a cost-effective solution for refrigerated storage or transport. The age, technical condition, refrigeration unit and certification vary between individual containers. These factors must therefore be assessed against the intended application.

View our dedicated page about used reefer containers for sale for more information about condition, PTI inspections and CSC certification.

Reefer containers in 10FT, 20FT and 40FT

Reefer containers are available in several sizes. The best format depends on the required internal capacity, available space and whether the container will be used for storage or transport.

10FT reefer containers

A 10FT reefer container offers compact refrigerated capacity and is primarily suitable for stationary storage. This format is less commonly available than 20FT and 40FT reefers.

20FT reefer containers

A 20FT reefer container combines substantial refrigerated capacity with a relatively compact footprint. It can be used for temperature-controlled storage and, when appropriately certified, international transport.

40FT High Cube reefer containers

A 40FT reefer container provides considerably more internal capacity. Most 40FT reefers are supplied in a High Cube configuration, providing additional internal height for larger volumes of chilled or frozen cargo.

Reefer containers for temperature-sensitive products

Reefer containers are used throughout international supply chains to store and transport products within a controlled temperature range. Common applications include:

  • fruit and vegetables;
  • meat, fish and dairy products;
  • frozen food;
  • flowers and plants;
  • pharmaceutical products;
  • temporary refrigerated storage.

The required temperature, ventilation and humidity settings depend on the cargo. These requirements should be established before selecting a container or refrigeration unit.

What determines the price of a reefer container?

The price of a reefer container depends on more than its size. Important factors include whether the container is new or used, its model year, overall condition, refrigeration unit, required certification and current availability.

Delivery location also affects the total quotation. Because reefer containers are supplied internationally, transport costs can vary considerably by destination. We therefore provide prices based on the required container and delivery details rather than displaying one general reefer container price.

Power supply and gensets

A reefer container requires an electrical power supply to operate its refrigeration unit. At a fixed location, the container can be connected to a suitable external power supply. During road transport or in locations without a fixed connection, a genset may be required.

Depending on the transport configuration, this can be a clip-on or underslung genset. View our gensets for reefer containers for more information.

Modifications and international delivery

When a standard reefer container does not meet the intended application, modifications can be coordinated through specialist subcontractors. Possible modifications include additional doors, lighting, locks, ventilation and internal partitioning. The technical feasibility depends on the individual container and its intended use.

We can also discuss delivery to the required destination. Please include the destination, preferred size, number of containers and intended application when requesting a quotation.
