The 7ft small cubic shipping container is the smallest steel store we supply, and it earns its place wherever space is genuinely tight. Just over two metres square on plan, it slips into a side return, a compound corner or a farm yard while still offering the strength, security and weather protection of a full-size container. For tools, machinery, seasonal stock or a locked store on a restricted site, it is hard to beat.
Key Features
- Heavy-duty Corten steel body that resists corrosion and stands up to sustained wet British weather
- Reinforced steel frame with corner castings, so the unit can be craned, stacked or moved by forklift
- Marine-grade plywood flooring rated for heavy point loads from tools, stock and machinery
- Double rear cargo doors on welded steel hinges, opening the full end of the container for loading
- Weather-tight door seals that block driving rain and keep the interior dry through the winter
- Factory-fitted lock box shielding the padlock from bolt croppers and tampering
- Cubic proportions that let you stack and shelve upwards, recovering capacity lost to the small footprint

Ideal For
Homeowners use the 7ft as a secure alternative to a timber shed for bikes, garden machinery and power tools. Contractors put them on constrained urban sites where a 10ft or 20ft box simply will not fit past the gates. Smallholders, market traders, sports clubs and retailers all use them for seasonal stock and equipment that has to stay dry and locked away between uses.
Delivery Across the UK
Small containers are the easiest of all to place. A single lorry with a HIAB crane can lift the unit over a wall or hedge into position, and on hardstanding a forklift will do the job just as well. Send us a photo of the access route with your enquiry and we will confirm the offload method before we book the vehicle.
