If you require a safe and secure space for the storage of domestic and general items, then our 40ft shipping containers could be the perfect option.

However, they aren’t just used for storage and shipping and in fact, have a range of applications. They’ve been used to host pop-up shops, offices, bars, restaurants, studios and much more – it’s entirely up to you, these models are extremely versatile.

We provide new and used models, which come with 27mm marine plywood flooring, multiple lashing points and multiple air vents as standard. All wind and watertight, you can rest assured that everything inside will be fully protected. New models also come with a lock box as standard, however, this is an optional feature of our used products.

Because of their size, 40ft containers can easily be converted, which is one reason why they’re one of our most popular sizes.

Many of these models have roller shutter doors, bespoke doors and windows installed; as well as the addition of heating, lighting and electrics. Modification options are not limited to this however, it’s all down to what you want to do with it!
