We stock a range of small shipping containers for sale and hire in the UK. Available in sizes 6ft, 8ft, 9ft and 10ft, these containers offer a great storage option when space or access is limited. We understand that sometimes space is at a premium, and as an alternative to a garden shed, our small storage shipping containers can provide a perfect solution for domestic use.
Small Shipping Container Applications
For domestic purposes, our tiny shipping containers are a great substitute instead of a garden shed, offering similar storage space to a quarter or a third of a traditional garage. They provide a wind and watertight solution for storing small household appliances, tools, and equipment too, and can even be used to securely store a motorbike if required.
For commercial and industrial use, mini shipping containers can be useful for storing machinery, equipment or other items required on-site for short- or long-term projects. Strong, secure, and convenient, our units are available to buy or hire for multiple purposes, from temporary storage solutions during home renovations to long-term construction projects.
No matter the reason you need a small shipping container, make sure you discover our excellent Cleveland Xtras service before you purchase your new unit. Our expert conversions team are waiting to install handy additional features to your container, such as lighting, personnel doors, windows and Grafo-Therm textured coating treatment.
Small Shipping Container Prices
Wondering how much a small shipping container is? Our units can range in price depending on the exact size selected and the location of where it is required. For an accurate quote in your area, please submit an enquiry form and a member of our sales team will be in touch.
Don’t forget that we also stock 8ft and 10ft shipping containers, for additional storage options which are practical and ideal when you don’t have a lot of room available.
