The largest container in our range, we can supply 45ft shipping containers across the UK.

Available in used condition only, the 45ft high cube shipping containers we stock are spacious in size, as they provide an extra foot of height and are four inches wider than a standard container.
These pallet-wide containers are the perfect option for the safe storage, transportation, and international shipping of large cargo.

Key Features Of Our 45 Foot Shipping Containers 

Our structurally sound stock of used 45ft shipping containers is guaranteed wind and watertight, with plywood floors and multiple air vents and lashing points.

As the 45ft shipping containers we supply are second-hand and vary in appearance and condition, we also offer a repainting service if a fresh lick of paint is required. Furthermore, a lockbox can be installed onto our used containers for an additional charge prior to delivery if this is desired by the customer as a security measure.

The approximate internal dimensions are 44ft 5ins (13,556mm) long, 8ft (2,430mm) wide and 8ft 10ins (2,692mm) high. Dimensions can vary slightly depending on the specific design and manufacturer.

Due to shipping containers being classed as temporary structures, they are often not subjected to planning laws.

However, planning permission for a shipping container will need to be sought if the plan is for the unit to be used to build a home. Planning permission is also required whenever a structure needs a foundation.

For peace of mind, it is always best to get in touch with your local planning office to seek assurances about your planned work.
