The 20ft and 40ft models are the most versatile for storage and logistics in Redbridge. #### 20ft Shipping Containers A 20ft container has a footprint similar to a standard car parking space (20ft x 8ft). It provides approximately 1,170 cubic feet of storage, making it suitable for most residential driveways and smaller commercial yards. - [Buy 20ft Containers](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/buy-containers/20ft-containers) - [Buy 20ft Flat Racks](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/buy-containers/20ft-flat-rack) - [Buy 20ft Open Tops](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/buy-containers/20ft-open-top) - [Buy 20ft Refrigerated Containers](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/buy-containers/20ft-refrigerated) #### 40ft Shipping Containers A 40ft container offers double the capacity of a 20ft unit. It is the standard choice for large-scale storage or export. Delivery requires significant space, as the truck needs a straight run of approximately 100ft to unload. - [Buy 40ft Containers](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/buy-containers/40ft-containers) - [Buy 40ft Flat Racks](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/buy-containers/40ft-flat-rack) - [Buy 40ft Open Tops](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/buy-containers/40ft-open-top) - [Buy 40ft Refrigerated Containers](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/buy-containers/40ft-refrigerated) ### Build Quality and Security Our containers are built to protect goods in harsh marine environments. This robust construction makes them perfect for secure land-based storage. - **Corten Steel:** The main structure is built from weathering steel (Corten). This alloy forms a protective layer that resists corrosion, ensuring a long lifespan even in damp British weather. - **Marine Plywood Floors:** The floor is made from 27 mm-thick marine plywood, treated to resist rot and pests. It is strong enough to support forklifts and heavy payloads. - **Security Lock Boxes:** We fit a steel lock box to the cargo doors of all new containers. This shroud covers your padlock, protecting it from bolt cutters and drills. We can add these to used containers upon request. ### Delivery to Redbridge We deliver containers using Hiab trucks equipped with an onboard crane. The driver lifts the container from the vehicle and places it on your prepared ground. We can lift over fences or low walls if the truck can park parallel to the drop zone. **Access Requirements:** The truck is large (approx. 9ft wide). We cannot drive on soft ground, such as grass or soil, because the vehicle weighs over 15 tonnes and will sink. You must provide hard standing, such as concrete or tarmac. **Residential Delivery:** If you need a container delivered to a residential street in Redbridge, you must ensure the truck has legal access. We cannot block public roads or pavements without a council permit. Review our [Delivery Guidelines](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/delivery-guidelines) to confirm your site is suitable. ### Container Hire Options If you only need storage for a short period, consider hiring a container. We offer flexible rental terms with a minimum period of 8 weeks. This is often more cost-effective for temporary projects. View our [Container Hire in Redbridge](https://shippingcontainersoflondon.co.uk/areas-covered/east/rental/storage-container-hire-redbridge) page for details. #### Do I need planning permission? Shipping containers are often classified as temporary structures and may not need planning permission. However, rules vary if the container is visible from the highway, located in a conservation area, or in place for a long time. Check with the [Redbridge Council Planning](https://www.redbridge.gov.uk/planning-and-building/) department for local guidance. #### What is the difference between Grade A and Grade B used containers? We generally sell used containers as "Wind and Watertight". "Grade A" usually refers to units with better aesthetics and fewer dents, while "Grade B" may have more surface rust and patch repairs. Both grades are structurally sound and waterproof. #### How do I prepare the ground? The ground must be level and hard. We recommend placing paving slabs, railway sleepers, or concrete blocks under the four corners of the container. This keeps the floor dry and ensures the doors remain square and easy to open. #### Can you modify the container? Yes. If you buy a container, we can install extras like personnel doors, windows, electrics, or insulation. We can also respray the exterior to match your company colours. #### How soon can I get a container? We typically deliver within 3 to 5 working days from cleared payment. If you are in Redbridge, we can often arrange quick delivery due to our proximity to East London depots.
