Why buy from a local depot

Everything we sell comes from our own yard at A66 Depot, Stockton Road, Sadberge, Darlington, DL2 1TD.

Buy from a yard you can actually visit

Most container buying happens through a photo and a promise. Because our depot is on the doorstep in Darlington, you can drive out, walk the rows, open the doors and pick the exact unit you want. If you are choosing between a new one-trip container and a used wind and watertight one, half an hour on the yard usually settles it.

Straight off the A66, minutes from the A1(M)

The depot is on Stockton Road at Sadberge, on the A66 corridor and around 15 minutes from the A1(M). That matters for two reasons: it is easy for you to reach from anywhere in Darlington, and it keeps haulage simple when we bring a container to you, whether you are in the town centre, out at Faverdale, on one of the industrial estates or on a farm out towards Piercebridge.

Homes, businesses and building sites

Around Darlington we deliver into everything from back gardens and allotments to trade yards, workshops and live construction sites. Domestic drives and shared back lanes need a bit more thought than an open yard, so we talk the access through with you first rather than turning up and hoping.

How delivery works

From enquiry to offload

Access check first

Tell us the delivery postcode, the surface, and how much clear space there is. Photos of the entrance help. For Darlington streets and older back lanes we will be straight with you about whether a HIAB lorry can get in.

HIAB crane offload

Every delivery comes on a HIAB crane lorry, so the lifting gear arrives with the container and the driver can place it precisely, including over a fence or wall where there is room to reach.

Delivered quotations

We quote the container and the haulage as one delivered price. Contact us for a delivered quotation for your postcode.

Or collect it yourself

If you have a suitable trailer, you are welcome to collect from the depot and we will load you with our forklift.

Always give us the full delivery postcode - it is the single thing that lets us price the haulage properly. More on delivery and access.

Common questions

Darlington containers, answered

Yes, and we would rather you did. The yard is at A66 Depot, Stockton Road, Sadberge, DL2 1TD and we are open Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm. Ring first so we know you are coming and can have the right sizes accessible.

We do, but town centre and terraced back-lane deliveries need an access check. Send us a photo of the approach and the spot and we will tell you honestly whether a HIAB lorry will manage it.

We normally hold 8ft, 20ft and 40ft containers in both new one-trip and used wind and watertight condition, subject to current stock. Stock moves quickly, so call for what is on the yard today.

Firm and reasonably level ground: hardcore, concrete, tarmac or compacted stone. We normally recommend sleepers or slabs under the four corners so the container sits square and drains properly.

Yes. If you have a container you no longer need, send us the size, condition and postcode with a couple of photos and we will quote to buy it and collect it.
