Container Solutions
Reliable refrigerated container solutions, delivered fast, and maintained on site.
Reefer Sales
Buy from a fleet operator, not a container trader. Every sales unit is condition-graded (A, B, or C), fully serviced, and delivered with a detailed inspection report.
Maintenance & Repairs
Certified reefer technicians for planned servicing and emergency callouts. We maintain 200+ units daily — when you call, we already know the model and the common faults.
Custom Conversions
Standard containers solve standard problems. Yours probably isn't standard. Shelving, doors, monitoring, dual-compartment — configured for your specific operation.
Buy from the people who maintain these things for a living.
Most container suppliers sell you a box and disappear. We maintain a fleet of 200+ units nationally. Our technicians work on these exact units every day. When you call for a breakdown, we're not diagnosing from scratch — we already know the model, the common faults, and we're carrying the parts.
48-Hour Delivery
Standard configurations in KZN. Gauteng 3–5 days.
Maintenance Included
SLV2/SLV3 plans include planned servicing and emergency cover.
No Lock-In
Month-to-month rental. Scale up for peak, scale back when you're done.
35+ Years Experience
Refrigeration engineering, not just container sales.

Common Questions
Straight answers. No jargon.
How quickly can you deliver a reefer container?
Most units deliver within 48 hours for standard configurations in KZN. Gauteng and other regions typically within 3–5 working days depending on unit availability and transport logistics.
Do I need three-phase power?
Not necessarily. We supply units compatible with both three-phase and single-phase power. For remote sites without reliable grid access, we can configure generator-compatible setups. We'll confirm the power spec during the site assessment.
What's the difference between SLV1, SLV2, and SLV3?
SLV1 is basic rental — you get the unit, we deliver it. SLV2 includes planned maintenance visits. SLV3 is the full package — planned servicing, priority emergency callout, and guaranteed response times. Most food and pharma clients are on SLV2 or SLV3.
Can I rent short-term for an event or seasonal peak?
Yes. We do monthly rental with no long-term lock-in. Scale up for citrus season, a food festival, or a construction project, then scale back down. The unit gets collected when you're done.
I've been quoted cheaper elsewhere. Why AquaCat?
We get it — price matters. But the cheapest quote usually doesn't include maintenance, doesn't include emergency cover, and doesn't come from a company with 200+ units and 35 years of reefer-specific experience. When a unit fails at 10pm on a Thursday and your stock is at risk, the question isn't what you paid per month — it's whether anyone picks up the phone.
Every hour without proper cold storage is stock at risk.
