Gym Container Conversions

Introducing the GymBox

Finding it hard to stay motivated with your exercise regime? Do your gym membership fees outweigh your usage? If you'd like to stay fit without leaving the house or paying ongoing costs then a home gym is the solution. Few people are fortunate enough to have the space indoors for their gym equipment, but with a shipping container gym all you need is a bit of space in your garden and suitable access. With our experience in converting shipping containers spanning two decades, we used our expertise and accumulated knowledge for the blueprint of a container that gives you everything you need for a home gym set up.
With a floor tough enough to withstand a pounding from your workouts and ply lined walls thick enough to bear the weight of heavy gym equipment attached to it, the GymBox is a unique product only available from Containers Direct. The GymBox is the perfect shipping container conversion to create your home gym in your garden. Or if you are a looking to operate, or extend, a gym for commercial use, our shipping container gyms are a quick and easy way to get started. For personal trainers, a gym on your own property can give you freedom and flexibility to work from home, and your clients the privacy they may desire. Our garden gyms are fully portable, giving you the flexibility to relocate whenever needed.
