Shipping Container Guides
Straight answers to the questions we get asked on the phone every week, written by the people who load the lorries.
Shipping container sizes
What each size actually holds, how much room you need around it, and when a high cube is worth the extra height.
New vs used containers
The honest differences between one-trip, wind and watertight and as-is containers, and where each one makes sense.
Delivery access
The clearances a crane lorry needs, and the photos and measurements that let us check your site before we load.
Preparing the ground
Level, firm and supported at the corners - what good ground looks like and how to get there.
Preventing condensation
Why container rain happens and the simple ventilation and packing habits that stop it.
