Yes. Containers are designed for international freight, with sealed marine-grade plywood flooring and heavy-duty rubber door seals to keep out wind and rain.

We deliver using trucks fitted with HIAB cranes, which offload and place the container directly where you need it.
Containers should be sited on a flat, dry surface such as concrete, gravel, or tarmac. Grass is possible, but not ideal, as it can affect door alignment.
Most temporary placements don’t need planning permission. For long-term use, refer to our Bolton planning permission guide or contact Bolton Council for further information.

Made from heavy-gauge steel, they’re very secure. With a fitted lockbox and quality padlock, forced entry is challenging.
Containers are ventilated to prevent issues, but condensation can still occur, depending on the contents and the local climate. We can add anti-condensation coating or lining if required.

Very helpful staff who answered any questions I had and provided a quote promptly for the hire of a storage container. The whole process from my initial enquiry, to ordering a container and it being delivered to site was straightforward and efficiently handled. The storage container was in a very good, clean condition and good value to hire.
We were messed around by another supplier and so after weeks of waiting to no avail we got a refund and went to these guys. Their communication was excellent and within days we had our container delivered. Container in excellent condition, the delivery driver was very helpful and arrived on time, and the total price was the cheapest we could fine. Highly recommended.
From initial contact through to delivery the whole experience was excellent. In particular promised phone calls to arrange delivery and access issues happened on time and everything went smoothly.
