5 Questions to Ask before Renting a Refrigerated Cargo Container In New Zealand

Customers in search of special refrigerated containers often make a hasty decision with their rentals or purchases. One cannot afford to be misinformed when it comes to investing in specialised containers in NZ. Renting or purchasing a premium quality refrigerated storage container is an expensive affair. Customers must ask the right questions to make the most of the deal. Questions such as:

cargo container

What kind of refrigerated containers does the supplier stock?

Customers require refrigerated containers for various reasons. There are two types of customers, commercial and non-commercial. Commercial customers buy or rent heavy-duty refrigeration for maximum power cost; whereas, non-commercial customers buy or rent light-duty refrigerators since they need it for personal use.

For heavy duty commercial use, a customer may need a three-phase container and for average consumption, a single-phase refrigerator is best. So, before choosing a refrigerated container, the customer should ask the supplier which variety they stock.

What does the daily operation cost?

There are different kinds of refrigerated cargo containers available in the market, and they all have different daily operational costs. So, customers must have a daily budget for the operational expenses before renting a specialised refrigeration container.

This entirely depends on what purpose they have in mind for the container, and what they can afford regarding daily operation costs, etc.

What kind of leasing terms are you looking for?

Different customers can have different leasing terms depending on the purpose of the refrigeration unit. However, customers must also bear in mind that most suppliers offer lesser rental rates for long-term agreements than they do for short-term contracts.

What are the delivery costs and timescales?

Not all suppliers offer same-day delivery and marginal delivery costs. Some suppliers provide flat delivery rates while others charge by the mile. If a customer needs the refrigerated cargo container delivered on an urgent basis then there are some suppliers who offer immediate delivery for an added fee.

Is there breakdown coverage?

Many suppliers have a ‘you break it, you buy it’ policy for containers that breakdown during the rental period. Customers must be wary of these suppliers and hire refrigerated containers from a supplier who offers breakdown coverage for at least a limited duration.

Customers who bear these questions in mind while renting specialised containers in NZ for refrigeration purposes can expect a lucrative rental deal.
