20ft Shipping Containers

One of our most popular products, 20ft shipping containers offer a convenient, safe, and secure storage solution no matter your cargo.

20ft Storage Containers

20ft Shipping containers are one of our most popular options available. Approximately the size of an average garage, 20ft shipping containers provide a large storage area for your goods and can easily fit in smaller spaces such as gardens, driveways, building sites, and industrial areas.

Our 20ft shipping containers are very secure and can protect valuable goods from theft, pests, and weather damage. All of our shipping containers are manufactured from high-quality corten steel with marine plywood flooring and ten vents included. They come with a 5-year watertight guarantee and with minimal maintenance will provide dry and secure storage for 25+ years.

Available in both new and used condition, the flexibility of a 20ft shipping container makes them ideal for container conversion projects. With the ability to add doors, electrics, plumbing, and other amenities, our conversions department can transform any 20ft container into a bespoke structure capable of more than just storage.
