About us

Container people, not a website with a phone number

ContainersNow is the container sales side of Parsons Containers Ltd. We've been moving, repairing and selling containers from the North East for over 25 years, and everything we sell passes through our own depot on the A66.

  • Family-run business, same team year after year
  • Own yard, own forklifts, own transport network
  • Thousands of containers supplied across the UK

How we work

Buying a container without the hassle

Most of our customers have bought one container before, or never. We treat that as our job to make easy, not yours to figure out.

We answer the phone

You get a person who knows what's on the yard, not a form that promises a reply in three working days.

We price it delivered

Container plus haulage, quoted together and honestly. If access means it costs more, we tell you before you order.

We stand behind it

If something isn't right when it lands, we sort it. That's why so much of our work is repeat business and referrals.
Who we help

From one garden unit to a full site

  • Householders wanting secure storage at home
  • Farms, equestrian yards and rural businesses
  • Construction sites needing secure kit stores
  • Manufacturers and distributors overflowing at peak
  • Schools, clubs and charities on a tight budget
  • Trade customers buying regularly on account
Where we cover

Darlington outwards, nationwide

We're strongest across Darlington, Teesside, County Durham, Tyne and Wear and North Yorkshire, where we deliver most weeks. Beyond that we deliver nationwide through hauliers we've used for years - same checks, same standards, quoted before you commit.

You'll find us on the A66 at Sadberge, a few minutes from the A1(M). Kettle's usually on.

Not sure what you need? Just ring us.

Two minutes on the phone usually beats an hour of searching. We'll tell you what's in stock, what it costs delivered, and how quickly we can do it.
