Luton is a busy hub for logistics, construction, and commerce. Space is often scarce. Shipping Containers of London solves this problem with secure, durable steel containers. We supply businesses near the M1, retailers in the town centre, and homeowners across the borough. Whether you need a temporary rental or a permanent unit, we deliver directly to your site.
We offer containers for sale and hire. Our stock includes standard sizes and specialist units. We check every container to ensure it is wind and watertight before dispatch.
Hiring is the best choice for temporary needs. You might need extra space during a renovation or secure storage for a construction project. Our hire service is flexible and cost-effective.
We require a minimum hire period of eight weeks. You also pay a collection deposit upfront, which covers the cost of returning the container when you finish. We supply 20ft containers, 40ft units, and refrigerated containers for cold storage.
If you need storage for more than a year, buying is often cheaper than renting. Ownership allows you to modify the unit with shelves, electrics, or extra doors. We sell new "one-trip" containers and used units.

Our containers are built from Corten steel. This material resists corrosion and withstands the British weather. It forms a protective rust layer that prevents serious damage.
We fit lock boxes to most units. A lock box is a steel shroud that covers the padlock. It prevents thieves from using bolt cutters or pry bars. Combined with heavy-duty doors and rubber seals, your contents remain safe and dry.
We deliver using HIAB trucks equipped with cranes. The driver lifts the container off the truck and places it on your prepared ground. This allows precise positioning over fences or in tight yards.
The truck needs hard-standing ground. Concrete or paved surfaces are best. Soft grass or soil will sink under the weight. You must also ensure clear overhead access, free from cables or branches. Read our delivery guidelines to prepare your site.
Luton Borough Council advises that there is no blanket exemption for storage containers. Your property deeds may also contain restrictions. We recommend using the council's pre-application service or emailing
A 20ft container needs about 60ft of straight space for the truck to park and unload. A 40ft container requires roughly 100ft. The crane extends from the side, so we also need width clearance. Check our transport page for diagrams.
We hire containers for a minimum of eight weeks. You can extend the hire for as long as you need. We ask for notice before you return the unit so we can arrange collection.
Yes, provided the truck can fit. The road must be wide enough for a large vehicle, and we cannot lift containers over parked cars or public footpaths without a permit. If access is tight, let us know when you request a quote.
Jeremy and the Team were very easy to work with. extremely quick to respond to our needs and the overall delivery was spot on. The container supplied was brand new and exceptionally clean, ready for our items to be stored safely and securely.
What a totally, refreshingly, brilliant company to deal with. They do what they say they will do at a time they say they will do it. Completely up front about everything: quality, cost, delivery etc. Nothing hidden. They accommodate the customer as far as humanly possible and their communications are spot on. I wish more companies were like this one.
The service from this company was excellent. We were working to tight deadlines and Jeremy was incredibly prompt in his communication, from the initial quote to the follow up email, to check everything had been received. He phoned the haulier and arranged a delivery around our schedule and Andy (the driver), kept us informed, so we knew exactly when he was arriving.
A professional company, that I would recommend highly.
