Our shipping container conversions can be designed to suit a wide range of purposes. Whether you’re looking for a bespoke storage solution or a custom-made venue for your business, we will support you every step of the way…

What Is A Converted Shipping Container?

They’re a great solution for businesses that need bespoke storage solutions, such as office spaces, cafes, exhibition stands or battery storage rooms that have robust safety systems built into their design from the outset.

Converted Shipping Container FAQs

What is a converted shipping container?

A converted shipping container is a container unit that has been altered, updated, or customised to suit a specific purpose.  This can include industrial purposes, such as fire-resistant battery storage room, boiler housing, generator enclosure or an on-site insulated office space. Converted shipping containers can also be used for retail and small-business purposes, such as pop-up shops or dining. Learn more about bespoke uses for shipping container conversions.

How long does a shipping container conversion take?

The shipping container conversion process varies depending on the size of container and the type of customisations. For a detailed breakdown of how long the shipping container conversion process will take for your unit, reach out to our team.

What size container offices do you offer?

We can convert a 10ft, 20ft, or 40ft shipping container into a custom-build container office. We also have a variety of ready-to-ship 20ft container offices for sale, if you’re looking for a quick solution for an onsite office or welfare unit. Explore our stock conversions to see what’s available.

Can used shipping containers be customised or converted?

Yes, used shipping containers can be modified to fit your needs. With our variety of shipping container accessories, you can convert a second-hand shipping container to suit many different purposes, such as an office, retail space, or storage unit.  Consider adding doors or windows to improve the atmosphere and accessibility, insulation and lining to make it a more comfortable temperature, and lighting and electrical installations to improve usability. You can also add shelving to create a better storage system. Learn more about converting your second hand shipping container.
