Cost Effective

  • Store efficiently: all 40ft High Cube Shipping Containers are weather proofed to be wind and watertight whilst remaining highly secure – making them ideal for storing plant machinery such as diggers.
  • Ship efficiently: All new units are supplied with a valid CSC plate* and can be used for shipping. The extra foot of height will allow you to stack more pallets in fewer units, without taking up extra floor space.

*Please note that second-hand units may require inspection and re-certification to renew the CSC plate for shipping.

From the initial quote from S Jones Containers all the way through to delivery, the service was top class. I dealt with Clare Wright and Charlotte Seymour, there attention to detail and high work rate allowed the container to be ordered and delivered in a timely and smooth manner for our client.

I just wanted to thank everyone at S.Jones for the brilliant, professional service throughout the whole process of buying and delivering my container and also for their patience whilst we coped with very unhelpful weather on site. Special thanks to Rachel and Lorna and Lee at John Butlin & Co. Ltd
Transport and the very helpful, professional and efficient driver on the day. I had never bought a container (which by the way was very smart for a reconditioned one) and they all helped me when I must have been a complete pain at times!
