What Is a Flat Pack Container?
Our Flat Pack containers are ideal where robust anti-vandal storage is required but space is limited or access restricted. We can deliver these units to the most tricky of locations due to their flat packed delivery, without the expense of a heavy lifting vehicle. Flat pack containers are fully man portable in sections, although you'd find the full unit a bit heavy to lift by hand! If your location for the flat pack container is at the end of the garden, for example, these containers can be carried in their individual pieces by hand to the precise spot you have in mind. However, whilst they are lightweight and compact when down, the ExpandaStore® is strong and sturdy when erected. With two euro deadlocks on the door as standard, our units offer very high levels of security, which can be further maximised by a locking bar and padlock. They are perfect to use as mobile storage container units too, as the time taken to put them up and down can be as little as an hour. The only tools required are a screwdriver and a socket set. For reference, we would recommend one person per metre to help assemble!
Fast and simple DIY
Flat pack container solutions are more agile than a standard shipping container, suitable to be simply assembled and disassembled with the help of 2 - 4 people. While being lightweight and compact when down, they are very strong when erected, offering very high levels of security, making them the perfect storage solution for tricky areas. See our guide to assembly.
