Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a side‑opening container different from a standard container?
Side‑opening containers feature a full‑length side access system, allowing you to load and unload equipment, pallets, machinery, or bulky items with far greater ease than standard end‑door containers. This makes them ideal for commercial, industrial, and event‑based applications where fast, unobstructed access is essential.
What sizes are available for hire or purchase?
Betta Storage offers 20ft and 40ft side‑opening containers, available in both standard height and high‑cube variations. You can also choose models with a single set of side doors or full side‑opening capability, depending on your operational needs.
Do you deliver side‑opening containers to my area?
Yes — Betta Storage delivers across Greater Sydney, the Central Coast, Wollongong, and the Blue Mountains, including all major councils such as Parramatta, Liverpool, Northern Beaches, Campbelltown, Sutherland Shire, and more. Delivery includes driver coordination to ensure the container is positioned exactly where you need it.
Should I hire or buy a side‑opening container?
Hiring is ideal for short‑term projects, events, seasonal storage, or temporary access needs. Buying is best for long‑term operations, especially if you regularly handle bulky equipment or require ongoing side access for inventory or machinery. Both options provide durable, secure, weather‑resistant storage built for demanding environments.
