ABC Container Hire & Sales hires out shipping containers in Mackay from stock held at a Mackay depot, so there's no wait on a container freighted up from the south. Hire is priced by the week with no lock-in contract: we deliver the container to your site, with most Mackay deliveries around 2–3 days, and collect it when you're finished. Sizes run from 10ft to 40ft, for shed overflow, a renovation, or secure storage on a mine or work site.

| 20ft container | $29 /week |
