Shipping Containers in Milton Keynes
Milton Keynes is a centre for logistics and growth. Whether you run a warehouse in Magna Park, manage a site in Bletchley, or need extra space at home in Stony Stratford, you need secure storage. Shipping Containers of London delivers durable steel containers directly to your location.
We supply containers for sale and hire across the MK postcode area. Our team manages the entire process, ensuring you get the right unit for your needs without delay.
Buy Shipping Containers
Buying a container offers a permanent storage solution. It is versatile, secure, and ready to use immediately. We stock both new and used units to suit different budgets.
- New (One-Trip) Containers: These units have made just one journey from the factory. They are clean, rust-free, and ideal for sites where appearance counts.
- Used Containers: These have been used on global shipping lines. They show signs of wear but remain wind and water-tight. They are a cost-effective choice for rugged storage.
Available Container Sizes
- 20ft Containers: The standard size. It fits in a typical parking space and offers 160 sq ft of floor space.
- 40ft Containers: Designed for high-volume storage. These units are perfect for pallets, machinery, or large-scale inventory.
- Specialist Units: We also supply flat racks, open tops, and refrigerated containers.
Hire Shipping Containers
If you need storage for a short time, hiring is the practical option. You avoid the upfront cost of buying and can return the unit when you finish. We offer flexible hire periods starting from just eight weeks.
Our hire fleet is well-maintained and secure. We supply 20ft units and 40ft units throughout Milton Keynes. See our local hire page for availability.
Security and Build Quality
Security is our priority. We build our containers from Corten steel. This material resists corrosion and withstands severe weather. It ensures your container lasts for years with minimal maintenance.
To protect your goods, we fit lock boxes to most units. A lock box is a steel shield that covers the padlock. It prevents thieves from accessing the lock with bolt cutters or pry bars. This simple feature provides essential peace of mind.
HIAB Delivery in Milton Keynes
We deliver using HIAB trucks equipped with cranes. The driver lifts the container from the vehicle and places it precisely on your site. This method allows us to navigate fences and tight spaces common in urban areas.
You must prepare the ground before we arrive. The surface should be hard and level, such as concrete, paving, or railway sleepers. Soft ground, like grass or soil, causes the truck to sink. Please ensure there are no overhead cables or branches blocking the crane. Read our delivery guidelines to get ready.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need planning permission for a container in Milton Keynes?
Temporary structures often do not require permission, but rules vary for permanent use or business sites. Milton Keynes City Council advises checking before you install a unit. Visit the Milton Keynes planning portal for guidance.
How much space do I need for delivery?
A 20ft container needs approximately 60ft of straight space for the truck to unload. A 40ft unit requires about 100ft. The crane also needs width and overhead clearance. Check our transport page for detailed diagrams.
Can I view the container before I buy?
We can send photos of the specific container you are purchasing. This ensures you know the unit's condition before it arrives. Our used containers are sold as "wind and watertight" to guarantee quality.
What if I have restricted access?
If your site has narrow gates, low bridges, or other restrictions, tell us when you request a quote. We may be able to use a smaller truck or arrange a site survey to check access.

Amazing Service
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 refreshing experience
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.
20' x 8' Container Delivery
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.
