A standard 20ft container has an internal floor area of around 150 sq. ft (13.93m²) and a capacity of 1,160 cu. ft (32.85m³). This makes it large enough to store the contents of a typical three-bedroom house or a wide range of business stock.
A 20ft high cube container offers the same footprint as a standard 20ft but with an extra foot of height, increasing capacity to 1,310 cu. ft (37.09m³). This makes high cube containers ideal for oversized items or conversion projects where more headroom is required.
Our 20ft containers are built from heavy-duty steel and come with lockable cargo doors. For additional protection, we recommend our patented Contain-A-Lock® padlock protector shroud, which prevents forced entry and gives maximum security.

Unfortunately our delivery was delayed by several hours but the driver made up for lost time, he was very polite and proffessional and sited the container inch perfect.
I was treated extremely well they took care of what I needed without any fuss.
