New 12ft Shipping Containers

< Back to Popular Containers

One of our most popular sizes is the 12 ft. Just slightly longer than our top seller, the 10ft shipping container, our 12ft new shipping containers for sale are built 12ft long, 8ft wide. We always hold stock in store if you're in a hurry! As we have our own in-house fabrication department specialising in producing any size container, we are the only UK retailer that holds stock of 12ft new shipping containers ready for dispatch with weekly low cost delivery runs from our fabrication depot to all regions of the country. We always ensure we give our customers the cheapest delivery prices available. Most people choose a new 12 foot storage container for long term use and for when an excellent appearance is important. We offer the 12ft with an industry leading choice of four door types with the S1 and Roller Shutter option particularly well-suited for frequent and easy use.


To enhance the performance of your container we can modify it with a range of optional extras, including electrics, vents, doors in the side, and much more. Prefer to buy second hand? That's not a problem. We supply great value refurbished used 12ft containers too! And we can convert them for a wide range of applications, such as chemical stores, offices and retail units. You'll be amazed at what we can do with a strong metal box!

Repainting

If you require a specific colour of container then we recommend a repaint in our rubberised marine paint.

The Build Process

At Containers Direct, quality is just as important as choice. During the process of making 12ft new shipping containers, the highest standards of work are applied all the way. Containers Direct manufacture the 12 foot container in-house in their fabrication depot, which involves taking 40ft new shipping containers and cutting them down to make 12ft containers. We fully seam weld every join instead of spot welding, which guarantees the container will be watertight, and stay that way, and use high gauge corrugated steel for strength and security. Learn more about how cut down containers are made.

Converted

Need a container conversion? The 12ft container is a neat space to transform into a small office space, chemical store, portable toilet, or anything else you can think of. Tell us what it is and we can design and build it for you.

Flat pack option

Flat pack containers are a low-cost solution to limited space or challenging access. Easy to transport and deliver, they are available in three sizes. Our 3m or 4m size is closest to 12ft.


Wider, narrower or even longer or shorter!

If a standard shipping container width of 8ft is not what you're after, then see our Extra wide or SlimLine® containers for purpose built containers giving widths as narrow as 5ft or as wide as 24ft! And remember we can cut containers to any length too.
