We do this by teaming up with container supplier depots across the country, and sourcing the best value containers for our individual customer's requirements, direct from their nearest supplier depot. We've added to our growing list of supplier depots by teaming up with Southampton docks, to offer the best value containers in Southampton at the lowest delivery rates for our customers based in the South West.

Case Study of the Month
March 2025CS54207 - 20ft cladded garden room
It's hard to believe this building started out as a used 20ft shipping container! With a smart set of patio style doors, lined with wood on the inside and clad on the outside, it's not only a handsome devil but cosy to hang out in. The trend of having a back garden "hang out" is increasingly popular and can be used for anything you like, including leisure and work space, a gym, yoga studio or social space - add a bar and you will never be more popular! This building is divided into two sections, a small area for outdoor storage and larger area for social and leisure activities.
Take a look at some of the most engaging work we have undertaken in
recent years. With detailed pictures, a step by step guide and a deep
insight to many projects, our case studies cover a range of applications.
Cut down containers for a more choice
For a wider choice of sizes of storage containers in Southampton we have a selection of cut down containers. These are made from standard 20ft and 40ft shipping containers and modified to produce conveniently sized storage containers with additional features to improve the use of the container as a storage unit. For instance, our supply of 10ft containers in Southampton are particularly popular with schools and clubs, and have been made more user friendly with the addition of light weight easy to operate doors. Shipping container doors are notorious for being heavy, which is fine for an overseas journey, but for frequent access to the container these doors can be a little off putting! See our S1 10ft storage container for a great example from our range of cut down storage containers located in Southampton.
Optional extras
All our shipping container are offered with a choice of upgrades to help you get the best from your container. One of our padlocks can give your container top levels of security, ply lining will eliminate condensation, while wood cladding will give an attractive finish and can work around potential planning permission requirements. For shipping containers used as a conversion projects we can make multiple adaptations from our list of optional extras. For instance office containers require windows, a personnel door and ply lining. Find out more about the different types of shipping container conversions we offer.
