Shipping Container Conversions
Containers Direct are industry leading specialists in shipping container conversions with a reputation for cutting edge innovation, delivering projects on time and providing first class customer care. We have worked on a wide variety of container conversion projects from bespoke site offices to pop-up shops, working with big brand names like Superdry to the local self-starters, like Coffi Camlan Garden Centre in Snowdonia. We have undertaken high-end engineering work for the MOD and worked with clubs and charities delivering bespoke budget workshops and offices. We have that much confidence in our converted shipping containers that our main office is, of course, a building constructed from eleven joined containers and some of our workshops are built from joined up used 40ft shipping containers!

Shipping containers are renowned for their qualities of strength, security, longevity and portability, making them an ideal structure from which to construct buildings for many uses at a cost that beats that of traditional buildings. Used 20ft shipping containers represent excellent value for money as a starting point for conversions. Our converted shipping containers are versatile, modern and durable, and cover a wide variety of purposes from pop-up shops to animal shelters. As well as creating bespoke conversions we also hold standard shipping container conversions in stock, such as basic offices and chemical stores. Should you choose Containers Direct to deliver your conversion project you will be assigned your own Account Manager, based on site here at our Conversion Depot, who will manage the project from the design and CAD phase, through to production. We look forward to working with you in helping achieve the best outcome and value for money.

Case Study of the Month
20ft +10ft wildlife enclosures
These two containers are part of a set of 5 containers we converted for Yorkshire Wildlife Park, as animal enclosures and feeding houses. The Waney Edge wood cladding makes them blend in perfectly with the wildlife setting of the park and the ply lining and heating inside the containers means they are suitable for animals requiring warm conditions. We fitted an internal timber partition in the larger container, dividing it into two separate sections with separate entry points provided by the personnel doors. Viewing panels are fitted into the doors so the animals can be seen but not disturbed!9th June, 2020
