West Auckland now has its own shipping container hire and storage facility! Hardcase Container Hire Ltd, located in Henderson, delivers high-quality shipping containers for storage on your site or ours—at competitive prices and with short notice. We proudly service Waitakere, the North Shore, and wider Auckland.
Hardcase Container Hire Ltd operates its own Hiab crane truck, ensuring prompt deliveries and pick-ups, reliable service, and cost-effective transport. In addition, we offer truck and crane hire services for individuals and businesses needing a Hiab or truck for transport.
Hardcase Container Hire started with a simple opportunity back in 1986. We bought our very first container to use as a builder’s shed on a remote site in West Auckland. When the project finished, we were left wondering: “What do we do with this now-obsolete container?” My brother’s answer was simple — “Let’s put a small ad in the local paper and see if anyone wants to hire it.”
That ad brought two enquiries straight away, so we bought a second container and hired them both out. From there, the idea took root, and Hardcase Container Hire was born.
From those humble beginnings, the business has grown into a trusted provider of container storage and transport solutions across Auckland and beyond. Over the years, we’ve worked hard to meet the ever-changing demand for secure, reliable, and affordable storage.
Today, we supply a wide range of quality containers for both individuals and businesses — from home movers and renovators to builders, schools, retailers, local councils, and mor. Our containers are used for everything from household storage to supporting large-scale industry in Auckland.
We’re proud of the reputation we’ve built: a friendly, hardworking team delivering a service that’s second to none. At Hardcase Container Hire, our story is proof that big things can grow from small beginnings — and we remain committed to helping people with their storage and transport needs, quickly and reliably.
