Acorn Containers supplies shipping containers for sale and hire in Luton for storage, project work and specialist applications. Before ordering, establish how much usable space you need and whether the delivery vehicle can reach and unload at the chosen position. Send those details with a quote request.
Buying can suit a container you expect to keep for regular use, relocate later or alter for a different purpose.
Hire can suit temporary storage and defined projects. Compare 20ft container hire and 40ft container hire, then confirm the expected hire period, notice requirements and collection arrangements.
Review access, lifting space and ground before selecting the final position for the unit.
Compare a 20ft container with a 40ft container using both storage capacity and the available site footprint. Allow space for the doors and loading activity.
A 20ft open top container may suit goods loaded from above. For oversized loads, flat rack containers provide another route. The container condition guide explains common terms used for used and one-trip units.
The approach needs enough width and turning room for the lorry, not just a clear path for the container. Check the surface and identify cables, branches or structures around the unloading area that could affect the vehicle or crane.
For hire, think ahead to collection. Later fencing, stored goods or building work should not block the route needed to remove the unit.
Use locking measures appropriate to the value of the goods and position the doors with wider site security in mind. See the container security guide. Ventilation can help manage condensation, while keeping vulnerable goods away from damp surfaces provides separate protection from moisture.
