Looking for a secure, affordable storage or shipping solution? At S Jones, we supply a wide range of used shipping containers and second-hand storage containers in standard and high cube sizes, ready for fast delivery across Great Britain.
Our pre-owned shipping containers are wind and watertight, and security-approved, making them perfect for businesses, construction sites, farms, and personal storage. With prices starting from just £995, you can save money without compromising on quality.
A used shipping container has typically spent 10–15 years in global transport, so signs of wear such as rust patches, repaired paintwork, and surface dents are normal.
Despite this, all our used shipping containers are guaranteed wind and watertight. Choosing used can be a better option than new ‘single trip’ when appearance is less important and value matters, making it a durable, practical and cost-effective solution for businesses and individuals needing secure on-site storage today.

Used shipping containers are second-hand steel storage units that have been previously used for transporting goods by sea, road, or rail. Built to ISO standards, they are highly secure and are wind and watertight. At S Jones, our used shipping containers for sale in Great Britain are available in standard and high cube sizes, with delivery to sites across England, Scotland, and Wales.
Yes, used shipping containers can be converted and modified in the same way as new containers. We regularly transform second-hand units into offices, pop-up retail spaces, plant rooms, welfare facilities, chemical storage units and more. Common modifications include adding personnel doors and windows for access and light, insulation and internal lining for year-round comfort, and full electrical fit-outs for workspace use. Our in-house conversions team can design, modify and deliver your custom used container anywhere in Great Britain.
Yes, we offer used shipping container hire in 10ft, 20ft and 40ft sizes with fast delivery across Great Britain. Hiring is a cost-effective option if you need temporary or seasonal storage without the upfront cost of purchasing. Our minimum hire period is 30 days, and hire rates vary by location and availability. Simply tell us your postcode and we’ll provide an accurate hire price and delivery timeframe.
Prices for second-hand containers start from around £995 for a 20ft unit, with 10ft and 40ft options also available. Costs vary depending on size, condition, and delivery location within Great Britain. Contact us for today’s best price.
No, we cannot provide photos of the exact used shipping container prior to delivery because stock moves quickly across our depots throughout Great Britain. All of our used containers are guaranteed wind and watertight, but they will show signs of previous service such as dents, scuffs and weathered paint. If the appearance of your container is important, we recommend choosing a new single-trip container, which offers a much smarter external finish and cleaner interior.
Unfortunately our delivery was delayed by several hours but the driver made up for lost time, he was very polite and proffessional and sited the container inch perfect.
I was treated extremely well they took care of what I needed without any fuss.
I cannot thank the staff at S Jones Containers enough. Everyone I spoke to went over and above to help. The containers were ordered and delivered in a very timely manner. We were kept informed at all times. The containers arrived at the time expected and were very easy to install. Thank you to everyone at S Jones Containers. I would highly recommend this company, it was a pleasure doing business with them.
Shazia was helpful from my first enquiry to the delivery of my container. She sorted any query and enabled me to buy exactly what I was looking for. The driver who delivered container was also a credit to his company. Nothing was too much trouble and everything done with a smile .
Got in touch with Shazia at the depot she organised everything delivery was a bit worrying as the area was tight but the delivery guy was amazing and got them exactly where we wanted them ,, all a very good service provided
