Beyond Storage – Creative Container Uses
In Brighouse, our 40ft containers are doing far more than holding goods. They’re being converted into fully fitted workshops, stylish event spaces, mobile healthcare units, and even temporary housing. The modular, stackable design means you can create bespoke layouts that grow with your needs.
In construction and agriculture, they’re used for secure equipment storage, sheltered work areas, and on-site offices. Their portability makes them an ideal choice for projects that move locations.
Buying vs. Hiring
Buy for long-term use, asset value, and modification potential. Hire for short-term projects or seasonal peaks without a considerable upfront cost.
All hire units are delivered wind- and watertight, with flexible rental terms. We handle siting with Hiab crane trucks for safe, precise placement.
