FAQs
What fits in a 20ft container?
20ft containers can roughly hold the contents of an average to large 3 bedroom house, with internal dimensions of 19ft 3” long x 7ft 7”wide x 7ft 9” high. These dimensions make them a popular choice with self storage facilities who find them convenient and popular choices for their customer bases.
How much space do I need for a 20ft container delivery?
The minimum width requirement for a 20ft delivery is 15ft to access the site and approximately 24ft for offloading (plus the width of the unit). However, this will depend on the reach required by the crane to successfully deliver your container. Our containers are offloaded to the side of the delivery vehicle. It’s important that we have considered the amount of space you need for delivery and our friendly hire team can assist with this. If you can provide any relevant photos, videos and dimensions and we will be happy to devise a delivery plan. Please contact us on 0808 115 3710
