Flat pack shipping containers

A shipping container that goes where a welded one can't. Delivered as a kit and bolted together on your site.

Standard flat pack£1,900+ VAT, plus delivery. £2,280 including VAT.
With CSC safety plate£2,200+ VAT, plus delivery. £2,640 including VAT.

20ft flat pack shipping container. The panels can be carried through gateways and tight gaps, so it suits back gardens, yards and sites with restricted access. You can also collect it yourself and save on delivery. It weighs approximately 1.8 tonnes, so you will need a suitable vehicle or trailer. We confirm your delivery or collection date when you order.

Questions

Are your containers new or used?

We sell both. Shipping containers are built in the Far East, so a new container reaching the UK has made one voyage to get here, which the trade calls one-trip. We also sell once used containers, which have been in service before. Prices for once used containers are on request.

Do your prices include delivery?

No. A delivery charge will apply, based on your location. Tell us your postcode and we confirm the charge before you order.

Are prices plus VAT?

Prices are shown excluding VAT, with the price including VAT underneath.

What access do you need for delivery?

A firm, level surface and enough room for the delivery lorry to get in and set the container down. We check access with you before booking.

Can I choose the colour?

Standard containers usually come in blue or green, depending on stock. Tell us your preference and we will confirm what is available.

What is a flat pack shipping container?

A steel shipping container delivered as a kit of panels, frame, roof and floor, then bolted together on site. Because it arrives in pieces, it can go where a full-size container cannot be set down.

Who puts a flat pack container together?

It arrives as a kit for you to assemble. Ask us if you would like help with assembly.

Can a flat pack shipping container be used for shipping goods?

Our standard flat pack shipping container has no CSC safety plate, so it cannot carry cargo internationally. If you need that, choose the CSC plated version at £2,200 + VAT. Check with your shipping line before booking, as some will not accept bolt-together units.
