Description
We have a wide range of used containers available across the UK, a variety bound to fulfil your own storage requirements and your budget.
Used shipping containers are, in general, older containers which the shipping carriers have sold off in order that new units can be brought in. These second-hand shipping containers are of various ages and conditions and so vary in price considerably. These used options will still serve the purpose while being priced very attractively.
Our second-hand shipping containers have the same utility and features as new units, they are watertight and windproof, have optional lock boxes for enhanced security and come in several colours. They are fully inspected by our highly experienced team. If they are to be used for export we can recertify them with valid CSC (Container Safety Convention).
Just tell us your needs and we can suit your specific requirements. Phone us or complete the enquiry form, and our experts will get in contact with you.
