If you don’t have much room to play with, 8ft shipping containers might be the most sensible and practical solution.

Due to their compact size, 8ft containers tend to be used for storing tools, small equipment, and other not-so-bulky items. They can even be converted into offices and spaces that don’t need vast amounts of room, such as ticket booths, transportable kiosks, and so on.

All our new 8ft shipping containers for sale are made to the highest quality too. As well as being wind and watertight, they come with a plywood floor, multiple vents, and several lashing points.

Key Features Of Our 8ft Shipping Containers

One of the most noticeable benefits of our 8ft containers is that they are very easy to transport, meaning you can relocate them from one place to another without much hassle. 

For example, if you own a hospitality business that’s constantly on the move, 8ft shipping containers give you the chance to be flexible and serve customers from all over the country.

They are also of the right size if you need to find a dedicated space to store machinery, equipment or other items required on-site for short- or long-term projects. 

If you are planning to use an 8ft container for the domestic side of things, it can act as a garden shed or a smaller version of a traditional garage. If necessary, it can be used to securely store a motorbike, too.

Our 8ft containers are also sturdy, secure, versatile, and customisable. This way, you will have no problem making them look the part – no matter what you need them for.

Like most of our small containers, you'll be pleased to hear that our 8ft shipping cargo options come with the following features:

  • Double doors at one end
  • Constructed from high-quality Corten steel
  • Guaranteed wind and watertight
  • Multiple air vents
  • Plywood floor
  • Multiple lashing points
  • Lockbox as standard in all new models

Looking to upgrade your unit even further? Through our fantastic Cleveland Xtras service, our expert conversions team are on hand to install convenient features such as electrics, racking, personnel doors and windows onto your container.

8ft Shipping Container Applications

The beauty of our 8ft shipping containers is that they can be reinvented to suit a wide range of needs without eating up your precious space. This is particularly useful if you need to add a unit to a small site.

Regardless of the industry you operate in, 8ft cargo containers are suitable for a broad range of applications, from agriculture and construction to self-storage and supermarkets. They can be used, for instance, for chemical storage, welfare or washroom units, and even archive storage.

8ft containers are also incredibly easy to convert, allowing you to transform them into the likes of street food stalls or small shops for instance. 

We are always on hand to install bespoke doors, windows, and roller shutter doors too, to help you recreate the space you have in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions About 8ft Shipping Containers

Keeping a car in a shipping container makes for a great temporary and secure storage solution when you are going to be away from the vehicle for a substantial period.

However, storing a set of wheels in an 8ft shipping container will not be very practical – even if the car does just fit, you will have very little room to open a door before it hits the unit’s wall.

Instead, it is recommended that you use one of our 8ft containers to securely store a motorbike. 

Our 20ft shipping containers are then perfect for holding a car when the vehicle is parked lengthways, though select a much more spacious 40ft container if you drive a SUV or van due to their larger sizes.
