When access matters more than floor area, the 10ft shipping container with roll up door is one of the most practical units we supply. A steel roller shutter replaces the traditional swing cargo doors, so the container can be opened fully even when it is parked tight against a wall, a fence or another unit — no swing arc, no wrestling with locking bars in the wind. Built from corrugated Corten weathering steel and fully wind and watertight, it gives you secure, dry storage in a footprint that fits comfortably on a domestic driveway or a congested site compound.
Key Features
- Steel roll-up shutter door that lifts vertically into the container, removing the need for door swing clearance
- Corten weathering steel body with corrugated side, end and roof panels for strength and long-term corrosion resistance
- Fully wind and watertight, with weather seals around the shutter aperture to keep out rain, dust and draughts
- Single-piece corrugated roof that sheds standing water — well suited to prolonged British rain
- 28mm marine-grade plywood floor laid over steel cross-members, rated for pallet trucks and heavy point loads
- Forklift pockets and ISO corner castings for straightforward lifting, stacking and repositioning
- Compact 2.99m (10ft) footprint that suits tight yards, side returns and narrow access roads

Delivery Across the UK
We deliver 10ft containers nationwide, usually on a tilt-bed lorry that slides the unit gently into position on firm, reasonably level ground. Where access is restricted or the container needs to be placed over an obstacle, we can arrange a HIAB crane offload instead. Send us a photograph of the approach and the intended standing, and we will confirm the right vehicle before booking.
