Shipping Containers For Sale in Liverpool

Containers Direct carry a wide range of shipping containers in Liverpool, from the good value quality used, to once-used containers

Most of our basic shipping stock comes straight from Garston Docks in Merseyside which is good news for our clients in Liverpool, as there are no middle-men to pay for long distance deliveries. Our in-house container conversions department in Liverpool also means we can carry out all modifications locally and can pass these savings on to our clients.

All our ISO shipping containers in Liverpool are built of corten steel, making them rust resistant as well as watertight and anti-vandal. They are built to last! They make excellent storage containers but can also be modified for a wide range of applications, such as shipping container chemical stores, shipping container offices and pop-up shops and cafes.

Case study of the month

December 2025

16ft x 10ft packaged plant room - CS98937

This bespoke new build unit was designed as a packaged plant room for Welborn Hall School in North Yorkshire, a county council maintained special school. The beautiful building that's now home to the school dates back to the 17th century and is set in 14 acres of landscaped gardens. As a Grade 11 listed building any alterations require consent to maintain the historical and architectural value. In this context the replacement to the building's existing systems to provide light, power, hot water and heating to the building is best served by an external, plant room in the school grounds.

"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
