Our storage container sizes
We provide the three regular industry sizes: 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft, so you can adapt capacity and footprint to yard, driveway, or site. Containers are fabricated from marine-grade Corten steel, feature an optional lockbox and double doors with locking bars, are watertight, and are ready for use as soon as you receive them. If you can't make up your mind on size, our people will guide you through comparing internal size, access constraints, and deliverability constraints before you order or rent a storage container.

10ft containers
Roomy yet compact, and easily mobile, 10ft storage containers are the perfect solution where storage space is limited.
Ideal for:
-
Household storage, summer storage, camping equipment, bikes, decorations, or archive boxes when renovating or cleaning out.
-
Exercise & hobby accessories - keep exercise weights and equipment, canoes, or gardening accessories safe and dry and out of the weather.
-
Micro-enterprises such as pop-up shops, street traders, and small trades with small yard areas.
A 10ft unit has a length of 10 feet, a height of 8 feet 6 inches and a width of 8 feet. It's easily accommodated on a typical driveway or small site and can be located for easy, frequent access. For demands increasing over time, 10ft units can be welded or professionally joined to larger containers as part of a future expansion strategy.
20ft containers
It is the market's go-to size, 20ft storage containers, that strike a perfect balance between size and footprint.
Ideal for:
-
Home moves & furniture storage: Keep belongings dry, clean, and secure when moving or redecorating.
-
Retail & e-commerce stocks: Peak-season temporary stocks or regular buffer stocks.
-
Tools, plant & material: Sites will benefit from a rugged, secure, lockable unit on site.
A 20ft has ample capacity without completely filling a driveway or yard, and is the best value option among many customers. Browse and enquire about our 20ft containers.
40ft containers
When maximum capacity is required, 40ft storage containers provide industrial-scale storage in a single, rugged unit.
Ideal for:
-
Large commercial stores. Palletised products, mass packaging, and storage overflow.
-
Construction & infrastructure. Lockup storage on larger sites for high-value material and plants.
-
Facilities & estates. Campuses, councils, farms, and distribution yards require high-volume, low-cycle accommodation.
Even though they are large, 40ft containers are easy to handle: installed all at once, unlike some temporary buildings, and enjoying generous, efficient storage that keeps demand on supplemental structures or off-site units low.
