Our 20ft shipping containers are safe, secure, and sturdy solutions for storage, office space, temporary sites, retail, catering, and much more.

About our used containers

Used 20ft shipping containers are made to full ISO standards and the most popular size hired in the UK. Our range of used containers have been decommissioned from their fleet before sale so you can expect some minor dents and signs of age including past repairs, but they are still guaranteed to be strong, secure, and wind and watertight unless otherwise stated.

Vandalism and theft-proof

Your hired container is designed to be tough, featuring high-security doors, padlocks, a Corten-steel fabrication, and factory-fitted lockboxes. High value and fragile items will remain secure inside, including computers, catering equipment, machinery, and chemicals.

Spacious and flexible space for your business

20ft containers can be used to set up temporary office space, catering facilities, toilets and accommodations, storage, and shipping. Their versatility can also make them ideal for retail, hospitality, and other temporary buildings and locations.

Add extras to your hired container

Improve the security. Add your branding. Install electrics and heating. Whatever you need to make your container more suitable or comfortable we can install and adapt it. These are some of the extras and customisations we can add to your hired 20ft container:

Our 20ft shipping containers are safe, secure, and sturdy solutions for storage, office space, temporary sites, retail, catering, and much more.

About our used containers

Used 20ft shipping containers are made to full ISO standards and the most popular size hired in the UK. Our range of used containers have been decommissioned from their fleet before sale so you can expect some minor dents and signs of age including past repairs, but they are still guaranteed to be strong, secure, and wind and watertight unless otherwise stated.

Vandalism and theft-proof

Your hired container is designed to be tough, featuring high-security doors, padlocks, a Corten-steel fabrication, and factory-fitted lockboxes. High value and fragile items will remain secure inside, including computers, catering equipment, machinery, and chemicals.

Spacious and flexible space for your business

20ft containers can be used to set up temporary office space, catering facilities, toilets and accommodations, storage, and shipping. Their versatility can also make them ideal for retail, hospitality, and other temporary buildings and locations.

Add extras to your hired container

Improve the security. Add your branding. Install electrics and heating. Whatever you need to make your container more suitable or comfortable we can install and adapt it. These are some of the extras and customisations we can add to your hired 20ft container:

Our range of used containers have been decommissioned from their fleet before sale so you can expect some minor dents and signs of age including past repairs, but they are still guaranteed to be strong, secure, and wind and watertight unless otherwise stated.

Hire a reliable and secure space for your business

Thanks to its Corten steel construction and waterproof structure, your 40ft container can do and be anything. It’s also protected with high-security features and entirely adaptable to your needs.

Waterproof and weatherproof

Both new and used 40ft shipping containers are a safe and reliable storage solution that won’t let the elements in. With some adaptations you can even store chemicals and hazardous equipment, medical supplies, and catering supplies that have to remain hygienic and sterile.

Secure and theft-proof

Wherever you’re installing your container, vandalism and theft won’t be a problem. The steel doors are secured with a padlock with multiple keys for you and your staff, and we can add alarms, roller shutters for doors and windows, and weld shut any out of use doors.

Completely customisable and adaptable

We can also install electrics, heating, doors, windows, skylights, and much more. Your container can have Wi-Fi access, multiple plug sockets and ports, as well as insulation and condensation protection.

40 years in the container business

Universal Containers is one of the UK’s leading container suppliers – we spent 14,000 hours completing over 300 bespoke hired conversions in 2021. We’re confident we can provide the right container for your business, whatever you need it for and wherever you’re using it.
