For those who want a sturdy solution to meet their domestic or global transportation needs, our shipping containers to buy are exactly what they are looking for. And you can choose from brand-new (1-trip) containers or used models in various conditions.
Whether you’re an experienced logistics/supply chain company or new to exporting, our range of shipping containers for sale has all your needs covered.
We offer them in two main sizes: 20ft shipping containers and 40-footers. Need the biggest possible container? Choose a 40ft high cube, which has 10% more height. Smaller models are available, too. The smallest we sell is just 6ft deep.
Made from corrosion-resistant metal to withstand the rigours of international shipping, our entire collection is also available to private customers who want to buy a shipping container for a domestic relocation or for moving precious cargo, such as a car, to another country.
No matter what kind of client you are, if you need a rock-solid shipping container to move something, we can help.
Our containers are regularly used for:
Please note that if you want to purchase a shipping container to send goods overseas on a container ship, you’ll need a 20ft or 40ft model. These are the only sizes that are accepted by most international shipping lines.
Your container will be:
You'll find it hard to fault our premium quality containers. They're delivered in a "like new" state and have been used for storage purposes only. Scuffs and marks will be minimal or non-existent.
The second-best container grade covers the next 10-15% of our used models. They're not quite as appealing as a premium quality container, but they are cosmetically sound and should last many years.
Your typical, average-quality used container. Likely to have been made at least 15 years ago, these still have years of use left in them and can often be brought back to their former glory with some TLC.
This is the domain of the cheap used container – our bottom 10-15% of stock in terms of quality. Most are still fully functional, and while their condition is poor they are still the right choice for some buyers.
TITAN’s 20ft shipping container is just the right size for most needs. As well as being comparatively easy to transport on the back of a truck or trailer, it’s also widely available across our UK depots – meaning fast delivery is possible.
If you want to purchase this roomy 20-footer, the internal dimensions are as follows:
Our 20ft shipping containers for sale are well suited to numerous industries, including supermarkets and retailers, agricultural businesses, medicine suppliers, electrical goods manufacturers, and more.
We’re a popular choice across the UK as we offer great deals on delivery rates thanks to our nationwide network of depots.
The floor space of a 20ft container is just a little smaller than the average UK living room. But don’t forget that you can stack goods to a height of 2.38m – so you can fit numerous personal belongings inside, such as TVs, furniture, beds, clothes, garden equipment, tools and more.
We have other sizes of shipping containers to buy, though these are not suitable for use on cargo ships. The external dimensions of our smaller options are:
And if you want something bigger, the container of choice for large loads is our 40-footer.
Our 40-footer is most commonly used for long-distance international transportation of goods. Smaller models such as 6ft, 8ft, 9ft and 10 foot shipping containers, meanwhile, are great when moving smaller loads domestically.
As well as different-sized models, we have shipping containers to buy in other configurations, too. We offer:
High cube container sales – perfect for large loads as they come with an extra 10% of height.
Insulated container sales – helps to prevent fragile items from freezing.
Open sided container sales – great for wide loads, like support beams or wings.
Tunnel container sales – great for splitting a single container into two units or to serve as an instant ‘tunnel’.
To help save you money, we have built up a network of 20+ depots throughout the UK and Ireland.
It helps us to minimise delivery times, which in turn brings down the total cost when you buy a shipping container from us.
All major cities such as London, Belfast, Manchester and Edinburgh are covered, and this wide geographic spread also means we can give you a personal, local service.
As with most container sales businesses, our containers are made in factories overseas. That means if you order a brand new shipping container, it will already have been on a container ship – on its journey to the UK – when it arrives at your workplace or home.
It’s why the word ‘new’ isn’t used all that much in the world of shipping containers. We tend to say 1-trip instead. Your container will have brought cargo into the UK on its inbound journey (it would be a huge waste to import an empty container), and you’ll be the first to actually own it. So when you want to buy shipping containers that are as near to unused as possible, ‘new’ equals ‘1-trip’ in container land.
We have a highly skilled team of engineers at our Bristol depot who can help transform containers into almost anything.
It’s the perfect solution for container conversion projects large and small – whether you need to create a mobile, modular base for a large construction project, such as a dramatic piece of scenery for an event or concert, or you’re looking for a bespoke, containerised booth/room to take on the road so that you can market your business.
Whatever your dream or vision, our container conversions team is happy to take your call, and we serve clients all over the UK.
Choose from a wide range of sizes, including:
Our 10ft shipping containers for sale are ideal for smaller projects. Whether you’re looking for personal or business use, this compact size offers the same high-quality construction as our larger containers.
The 20ft shipping container for sale is one of our most popular sizes, perfect for medium-sized loads. Its internal dimensions of 5.90m length, 2.29m width, and 2.38m height make it suitable for both domestic and global transportation.
For larger-scale projects, when you buy 40ft shipping containers you get ample space to store or transport goods internationally. These containers are stackable and offer an efficient solution for businesses with significant storage or shipping needs.
