Shipping containers Manchester

Whatever your requirements, whether you’d like to buy your own shipping container for domestic or commercial use or need a reliable container hire service in Manchester, we can help.

We stock both new and used shipping containers in a broad range of sizes, including 10ft, 20ft, 40ft and 45ft.  And these can be painted in any colour on the RAL colour chart and fitted with container accessories – such as padlocks, lockboxes, ramps, shelves etc. – to suit your individual requirements.

All of our shipping containers for sale and hire in Manchester are made from premium corten steel and CSC plated – which means they’re inherently strong, durable and suitable for both overseas shipping and storage. Yet despite their exceptional quality, they’re still priced very competitively.

We can also arrange an efficient container delivery service on your behalf. Simply tell us a date and time that is convenient, and our trained technicians will transport your chosen shipping container to any location – whether that be in Manchester, somewhere else in the UK or internationally.

We can help with that too. To help replenish and diversify our stock, we’re always on the lookout for new and used shipping containers for sale in Manchester. So, if you’re looking to sell, it’s worth getting in touch with our team. Subject to the container’s age and condition, we may be able to take it off your hands.
