Why Buy Shipping Container Legs From Universal Containers
With over 40 years of experience supplying shipping containers and accessories, we offer dependable products backed by expert advice and nationwide delivery. We stock a full range of ConFoot container legs and lifting systems, so you can match the leg to your container size, load, and ground conditions rather than settling for a one-size-fits-all fix.
Built to last
Made from heavy-duty materials, our container legs are built to handle constant loading, changing weather, and rough site conditions without corroding or losing strength.
Compatible with a range of containers
Our ConFoot legs fit onto standard container corner castings, making them suitable for a wide range of container sizes and types, from 8ft units to 40ft high cubes and more.
Safe & secure
Every ConFoot leg is designed to keep a container stable and level once fitted, reducing movement, stress on the container frame, and the risk of an uneven or unsafe base.
Quick to fit
No welding, drilling, or specialist tools needed. Our container legs fit straight onto the corner castings, so you can level or lift a container in a fraction of the time a concrete base would take.

What’s the difference between container support legs and container lifting legs?
