If you purchase an used container, you'll get a second-hand container that has been sat for years in the back of shipping lines and will be covered with lots of surface rust and knocks and dents.

This plate shows that the container has been authorised to ship cargo overseas.

They're up for the task

Shipping containers are large steel containers you see on construction sites, and are loaded into lorries and trains, or onto ships for transport across the globe. They're designed to be water- and wind-tight, protecting cargo from the elements as they traverse rough seas or extreme conditions. They're also highly adaptable, flexible and versatile in their application. In fact they can be converted into cabins, Offices And Studios Containers or even homes for a fraction of the price you'd pay to build similar structures from scratch.

If you're thinking of purchasing a container, it's important to conduct your research so that you choose the right model for your requirements. Check the condition of the windows and doors to make sure they are in good condition and are sealed properly. Also, examine the body of the container to see whether there are any significant dents or holes. Make sure that all working mechanisms are in good shape. This includes the roof, lower side wall, door hinges and locks and gasket seals.

Prices for containers can be wildly different, even within the UK. It's important to compare prices from different sellers and keep up-to-date on the latest market trends. You'll get the most value for your money when you compare offers from a variety of sellers.

Most customers buy an old container as it's cheaper than building from the ground up using bricks and mortar. This is especially true because you'll have a ready base that can be used right away and modified in a matter of weeks.

On construction sites, a container can be used as a temporary storage option for equipment and tools, a breakroom, or an office on site. The space can be easily repurposed after the project is complete, which is great for contractors working to strict deadlines.

In a farm, a container that has been used before can be an ideal storage solution for livestock and machinery. It's not just an insulated, dry and secure Confined Space Containers for equipment, but it can be equipped with a cosy home environment that's perfect for animals in need of an extra level of comfort.

They're a savvy investment

In certain circumstances it might make sense to buy an old container instead of an entirely new one. You may not be concerned about the design of the container, or your budget may not permit you to purchase an entirely new one. Buying a used container is a great way to save money and can be used for many different projects and purposes.

A second-hand unit is just as durable as a brand new container, and will last for as long. The steel used in these containers is extremely strong and an excellent container will last for around twenty years. It's also worth remembering that buying an used container is economically and environmentally sustainable. The manufacturing of a single container requires a lot of energy and raw materials, which is why reuse of a container is an environmentally sustainable option.

A storage container is an excellent way for businesses to safeguard important stock, documents and machinery. It's perfect for storing things that aren't in constant use, and can be easily adapted to suit your specific requirements with the addition of doors or shelves. They're also a less expensive alternative to bricks and mortar buildings, and offer a much more portable solution.

Containers are used in many places around the world. From warehouses and factories, to private homes and gardens sheds. Their intermodal design means they're ideal for moving across countries and continents in any way, whether on the back of trucks in Asia or lifted onto the cargo ship to cross the ocean.

We offer a selection of shipping containers from second-hand that are practical and can be used for any purpose for storage or office space. We can even convert your container into a bespoke workshop or home, so get in touch today to find out more.
