The Role of Refrigerated Containers at Football Games

A lot of preparation goes into organising a high-profile football match, much of it happening behind the scenes. When the crowds arrive on game day, everything needs to tick like clockwork, from the ticket office to the food stands.

One of the important aspects of organising an event is securing access to sufficient storage space; many locations use refrigerated containers for this purpose.

To understand why refrigerated containers are often present at football grounds all over the United Kingdom, we need to list some of the unique benefits that this storage mode can provide:

Convenient On-Site Storage Capacity

Plenty of things happen on a football stadium throughout the week, culminating with the match that typically draws a large crowd. Having access to storage containers with or without a refrigeration capacity allows the crews to securely store stock in a convenient location.

Containers can be used to keep the home team’s equipment or other crucially important items that make the competition possible. Reefer containers, in particular, are often used to store food and drink at the stadium, as they support very low temperatures and are suitable for storing fresh meat and dairy products.

Perfect Positioning Matters when the Stadium is Busy

Staff working in a packed stadium are often under pressure, so it’s beneficial to shorten their traverse route to retrieve critical supplies. Using refrigerated containers placed in strategic locations where easy access is ensured at all times makes it possible to reduce the impact of the crowd - much like in a football match, being in the right place at the right time is essential!

Cost-Effective Solution

Sports event organisers face many different challenges from week to week, which is why flexible short-term leasing contracts from Spacewise are so appealing. Contact our team for more information and a free no-obligation site survey.

Equipment delivery is good quality and clean. Commissioning (usually next day unless otherwise organised) is complete by suitably qualified engineers and an ‘operating’ explanation given to the end user.

In addition their after-sales support is very good, tech. offering advice and engineer if deemed appropriate.
