The Standard Sizes

We offer the standard ISO 20ft and 40ft shipping containers at competitive rates for purchase, with low cost delivery rates to the local area. We offer both used and once-used containers capable of storage and shipping.

A whole range of sizes to choose from!

We can supply containers to Birmingham ranging from as small as 5ft in length to up to 45ft. The standard width of a shipping container is 8ft but we often have wider equipment available with an internal width of 8ft - these are called pallet wides. Or for additional height over the standard 8' 6" measurement, high cube containers are a whole foot taller. We also use our workshops in Liverpool to cut containers to specific sizes which are otherwise unavailable from new, so whatever size you require, you can ask us.

Using our conversion facilities

We are lucky to have our own conversion and new-build facilities on site in our main depot in Liverpool, which means we can supply shipping containers in Birmingham to our customers own specifications. Containers can be constructed or adapted for a multiple uses including pop-up catering units, exhibition stands and offices. Check out our Container Conversions page for more ideas.

Community playground cafe and bike hire store shipping container conversion in Bristol - CS104153

Case study of the month

November 2025

CS104153 - Community playground cafe and bike hire store - 2 x 20ft

The Vench, a much-loved adventure playground and community centre in Lockleaze, Bristol operates as part of the Groundwork South project. Groundwork "takes practical action to create a fair and green future in which people, places, and nature thrive." So we were excited to be chosen to provide two upcycled containers to their Bristol location. We converted one to use for their bike hire scheme and another as a pop-up cafe in the playground. They were pushed together side by side to resemble one large building but on the inside they are very different!

order - a Used 10ft Container

"The product (flat pack container 4m) is excellent. I already have one that I bought 18 months ago which has been secure and kept everything stored in great condition. I needed another storage container so came straight back to you. The lead time was even quicker than the previous time which was great. The delivery was slightly tricky but the driver (Steve) was cheerful and helpful and managed the job safely , even in the pouring rain at the time. Overall, great product and delivery and very satisfied." Michael Spencer
