Converted Shipping Containers

Haulage containers are incredibly versatile and are renowned for their strength, security, and durability – which makes them easily adaptable to many specifications and well-suited for container modifications.

Container conversions can be used for just about anything, including:

• Offices
• Classrooms
• Pop-up shops and retail spaces
• Hotel rooms
• Studio spaces
• Canteens and mess huts
• Laboratories
• Storage containers
• Changing rooms
• Saunas and shower rooms
• Toilets and bathrooms
• Plus, much, much more!

Your possibilities are limited only by your imagination.

Because intermodal containers are so customisable, here at Gap Containers we offer a fully bespoke conversion service to meet your specific needs.

This specialist service includes:

• A variety of intermodal container sizes, ranging from 6 to 40ft
• Single and multi-story structures
• Personalised external finishes
• A range of interior fixtures, fittings, and features (e.g. air-conditioning, electrical wiring, plumbing, etc.)
• A choice of different windows and doors

We always start the conversion process by arranging a one-to-one consultation, which allows us to establish your basic specifications and budget.

Then, based on the information collected, our engineers can then get to work – transforming and modifying the chosen haulage container to meet your needs.

Our skilled and experienced team will bring your dream container conversions to life and give you the extra space you need to enhance your home or work life.

During your container conversion process, you might wonder how much of a say you can have.

At Gap Containers we understand that shipping container modifications are complex and also very exciting – so aim to keep our customers in control as much as possible.

This includes providing a bespoke design service and giving updates where we can, which gives you an idea of how work will progress and what your shipping container conversions will look like once completed.

As part of the design process, you will choose everything, from the windows and doors to the built-in storage solutions to the use of insulation or services, such as electrification and plumbing, and much more!

We will always ask you before we make any decisions about your modified shipping containers and can deliver them to you on-site as part of your package.

Due to the bespoke nature of the service, the exact timescale varies from project to project. Your container conversion is unique, and the time needed to create it will depend on many factors, including:

• The complexity of the project
• The number of shipping containers involved
• The internal and external finishes requested

For a better idea of how long your unique project will take, it’s worth getting in touch to discuss your conversion project.

This gives you a chance to discuss plans for your shipping container conversions – including its basic specifications – and we can then provide an estimated timescale.

Got a specific deadline in mind? Just let us know and we will do everything we can to make sure your new conversion is delivered on time.

Most people assume that bespoke container conversions are expensive. But, this isn’t necessarily the case.

Each project is different and the cost of your specific shipping container conversion will depend on the size and number of containers used, their unique specification, and how long it will take to complete.

But, generally speaking, the bigger and more complex the transformation, the more it will cost to bring it to life.

It’s also important to note – here at Gap Containers – we can work to any budget and strive to make our container conversions as affordable as possible.

Many people dream of being their own boss, but working from home isn’t possible for everyone – generally because they lack the space.

A conversion from Gap Containers could change that and make your dream career much more achievable.

From studios to workshops, gyms to offices, whatever type of space you need to make your self-employment dreams come true, Gap Containers can make it happen.

The best thing is, unlike permanent structures, shipping containers generally don’t require planning permission and can fit easily into your existing outdoor space, be that in a garden or driveway, removing your need to commute!
