Choose from new or used shipping containers in Southend
New shipping containers are sold with just one trip behind them, as they arrive in UK ports loaded with cargo for cheaper transportation. Used shipping containers will typically be around 10 - 15 years old, and the cosmetic conditions will have suffered from frequent sea-faring journeys and handling at ports. We offer a free repaint on all containers under 20ft, that will cover a lot of the cosmetic damage and greatly improve the appearance of the container. For containers over 20ft and over, we offer competitive repainting rates.
