Famed around the world for its beaches and long stretches of coastline, Bournemouth has long been accustomed to seeing shipping containers from the shore. However, in recent times, the town has taken a shine to using shipping containers in less conventional ways.
Shipping containers have been spotted at Bournemouth-based festivals as pop-up food outlets, along the beach for innovative start-up businesses, and as commercial bars for the summer tourist season.
New shipping containers in Bournemouth
Whether you’re transporting items or carrying out a bespoke container conversion, our new shipping containers offer a prime solution. If you’re looking for high-quality containers, we offer the best in durability and security, letting you rest easy knowing your container is robust and ready to take on any challenge. Each container is built using Corten steel and adheres to ISO shipping standards.
Our new containers are perfect for a range of uses and come in a variety of sizes:
- New 10ft Shipping Containers – These compact containers are the ideal solution for tight spaces or lesser storage needs.
- New 20ft Shipping Containers – Perfect for transport, storage, and modifications, these popular containers are versatile and a popular choice for applications including construction site offices, retail storage, and living space.
- New 40ft Shipping Containers – Delivering substantial space for any project, these large containers are highly adaptable and suitable for vast storage needs, bespoke customisations, or high-volume shipping.
We also stock new containers outside the standard sizes which are perfect for more unique requirements:
- New 8ft Shipping Containers – Whether you have a tight space to fill, or simply need a small unit to store tools and equipment, this size is the perfect choice.
- New 9ft Shipping Containers – Slightly larger than the 8ft unit, these containers are a good place to start if you only need minimal space but want the option to adapt as your needs change.
- New 30ft Shipping Containers – As a compromise between our 20ft and 40ft containers, this mid-size option offers enough space for both storage and conversion projects.
- New 45ft Shipping Containers – Our biggest container is suitable for virtually any project, whether you need something for high-volume shipping, extensive storage, or a large modification.
