Key features of the 10ft used reefer container
PTI tested refrigeration unit
Every unit undergoes a full PTI (Pre-Trip Inspection) test before sale. Our technicians test all machinery and the unit must pass before it leaves our facility. As a result, you receive a fully operational reefer container ready for immediate use.
-25°C to +25°C temperature range
The refrigeration unit maintains a precise temperature between -25°C and +25°C with one-degree accuracy. Therefore, this container suits a wide range of applications — from frozen goods and chilled produce to pharmaceutical and chemical storage.
Stainless steel and aluminium interior
The interior walls and surfaces are constructed from stainless steel and aluminium. Furthermore, these materials are easy to clean and sanitise — making this container ideal for food-grade and hygiene-sensitive applications.
Maintained, tested, and repainted
Every used reefer container is fully maintained, machinery-tested, and repainted before delivery. As a result, you receive a unit that looks clean and performs reliably from day one.
CSC plated and ISO certified
Every unit carries a valid CSC plate and meets ISO 668 standards. Moreover, the CSC plate confirms the container is safe for stacking and handling at ports and depots worldwide.
Forklift and crane compatible
The compact 10ft footprint and forklift-compatible design make this container easy to move and position. Additionally, it fits in spaces where a standard 20ft reefer container cannot — ideal for tight yards and event sites.
High cube model available
A High Cube (HC) version is available with approximately 30cm additional internal height. Contact us for availability and pricing if the extra clearance suits your storage requirements.

Warranty
We provide a 3-month spare parts warranty on all used reefer containers. The warranty period starts from the date of purchase. If the container does not work on first use or does not match your order, contact us immediately and we will repair it as soon as possible.
During the warranty period, we deliver replacement spare parts free of charge. However, the warranty does not cover repair labour, travel expenses, or part installation — only the delivery of spare parts.
