New Build Containers
Wider, taller, narrower! We build from scratch; we have you covered!
We are one of the few UK's top manufacturers of new build containers, which are constructed to high standards, offering strength, security and excellent quality.
Containers Direct specialise in building brand new containers. New shipping containers are made to conform to standard sizes, meaning they are exclusively 8ft wide with a maximum height of 9ft 6in. So if you are looking for a container which falls outside of these parameters, perhaps 10ft wide or 5ft wide, then building from scratch is the best solution. Typically our new build containers can be manufactured to any width between 5ft and 14ft. For wider spaces we can provide joined up containers cleverly designed to easily link together to create larger spaces.

"The container is in situ and it is as new, just perfect. Your driver was amazing and made sure everything was spot on before he left. A company opposite us has four on site and ours makes them look very secondhand indeed. Thanks again.
