Climatight’s 20ft refrigerated containers operate across a temperature range of -30°C to +30°C. This means the same unit can function as a freezer or a chiller, depending on what you need. You can store frozen goods, fresh produce, pharmaceuticals, beverages, food or floristry stock. How much can I store in a 20ft refrigerated container? The 20ft refrigerated sea container has a cubic capacity of 28.3m³ (31.63m³ for high cube containers) and a payload capacity of 27,360kg. In practical terms, that’s enough to store 4 standard CHEP pallets in a single line with plenty of extra space for shelving or cartons. It’s a significant step up from a 10ft unit and suits businesses that need real working volume without the full footprint of a 40ft container. We also have [20ft and 40ft high cube pallet-wide containers](https://www.climatightcontainers.com.au/product-service/refrigerated-sea-containers/two-pallet-wide-containers/) designed to fit two rows of pallets. Can I hire a 20ft refrigerated container rather than buying one? Yes. Climatight offers both hire and purchase options across all refrigerated container sizes, including 20ft general purpose and high cube containers. Our flexible hire solution gives you on-demand cold chain solutions for seasonal storage, cool room renovations or overflow stock. Purchasing makes sense when you need permanent or long-term cold storage but don’t have the space or budget for a permanent cool room. If you’re unsure which is right for you, call us on 0475 000 560 for advice. Does Climatight deliver Australia-wide? Yes. Climatight delivers refrigerated containers Australia-wide. If you’re in a Western Australian or South Australian metro area, next-day delivery may be available depending on the unit and logistics. For regional and remote locations, we’ll discuss logistics and lead times with you directly. All containers are inspected before dispatch and backed by 24/7 emergency support in Australian metro areas once delivered. We can also ship refrigerated containers globally through our international partners. Contact us if you need to send a container overseas. Can Climatight modify a 20ft refrigerated container before delivery? Yes. We can fit 20ft containers with shelving, loading ramps, internal lighting, door curtains, locks and other accessories. If you are purchasing a 20ft reefer container and have specific requirements, we can completely customise your unit. From energy-efficient refrigeration to a custom door arrangement or tailored internal layout, our custom-built refrigerated containers work the way you need.
