Container Hire in the UK

There are more and more former shipping containers being converted (or "pimped") for alternative land-based uses in the UK than ever before, and it's not hard to understand why.

These former compartments of the sea make terrific portable storage units at relatively low costs, which is why container hire is booming in the UK. 



Containers range from 8ft to 40ft in length, with the most common being 20ft. They are just so versatile and low cost (especially for long term hire) - it's like having an instant garage on site!

Container Sizes and Types 

The general sizes used for container hire are 10ft, 16ft, 20ft, 30ft, 40ft. The types include:

- standard
- open top
- flat rack
- insulated
- open sided
- high cube
- office conversion
