Converted Shipping Container FAQs

What is a converted shipping container?

A converted shipping container is a unit that has been altered, updated or customised to suit a specific purpose. Fire-resistant battery storage rooms, boiler housing units, generator enclosures and insulated office spaces are all examples of how a converted container can be used. Container conversions can also be used for retail and small-business purposes, such as pop-up shops, cafés and restaurants. Learn more about the many bespoke uses for shipping container conversions.

How long does a shipping container conversion take?

The time needed for a shipping container conversion depends on the size of the container and the extent of customisation that is required. Reach out to our team for a detailed, personalised breakdown of how long your container conversion will take.

What size container offices do you offer?

We can convert a 10ft, 20ft, or 40ft shipping container into a custom-build container office. We also have a variety of ready-to-ship 20ft container offices for sale, if you’re looking for a quick solution for an onsite office or welfare unit. Explore our stock conversions to see what’s available.

Can used shipping containers be converted or customised?

Absolutely! Our second-hand shipping containers are just as customisable as our new units. Using our wide range of shipping container accessories, you can convert a second-hand unit for a variety of applications, such as office space, retail space, or storage units.  Consider adding doors or windows to improve the atmosphere and accessibility, insulation and lining to make it a more comfortable temperature, and lighting and electrical fittings to improve usability. You can also add shelving to create easy and accessible storage within your unit.
