Lambeth is a diverse borough, stretching from the South Bank's commercial hubs to the residential streets of Streatham and Norwood. Finding secure extra space here is often difficult. Shipping Containers of London provides the solution. We supply robust steel containers to businesses, construction sites, and homeowners across the SE1, SW2, SW9, and surrounding postcodes.
We offer containers for sale and hire. Our team understands the specific challenges of delivering to South London, including navigating red routes and narrow access roads. We ensure your container arrives safely and fits your site perfectly.
Hiring is the ideal choice for temporary storage. You might be managing a shop fit-out in Brixton, organising an event on the South Bank, or renovating a home in Clapham. Hiring allows you to add secure space without a long-term capital investment.
We offer flexible rental terms with a minimum hire period of just eight weeks. You pay a collection deposit upfront, which covers the transport cost to return the unit when you finish. We supply 20ft containers and 40ft units ready for immediate dispatch.
Buying a container gives you a permanent asset. You can modify it, paint it, or add shelving to create a workshop or archive. We sell both new and used units.

Security is a priority for our Lambeth customers. We build our containers from Corten steel. This material resists corrosion and withstands physical attacks. It forms a protective layer that prevents rust from damaging the container's structure, ensuring it lasts for decades.
To deter theft, we fit lock boxes to most units. A lock box is a heavy steel shroud that covers the padlock and shackle. It prevents thieves from using bolt cutters or angle grinders to force entry. Combined with heavy-duty doors and rubber seals, your contents remain safe and dry.
Delivering to Lambeth requires precision. We use HIAB trucks equipped with hydraulic cranes. The driver lifts the container off the truck and places it on your prepared ground. This allows us to position units over low walls, fences, or into tight spaces.
You must prepare the site before we arrive. The ground needs to be hard and level. Concrete, tarmac, or paving slabs are best. Soft grass or soil will cause the truck to sink. You also need to check for overhead hazards, such as power lines or tree branches. Read our delivery guidelines to ensure your site is ready.
Lambeth Council generally views shipping containers as temporary structures. However, if you plan to keep the unit for a long time, use it as a workspace, or place it in a conservation area, you likely need permission. We recommend checking with the Lambeth planning department before you order.
Many main roads in Lambeth (like the A23 or A3) are Red Routes. We cannot stop on these roads without a dispensation. If your site is on a Red Route, you must arrange a parking suspension or specific delivery slot. Let us know your location when you request a quote.
A 20ft container requires about 60ft of straight-line space for the truck to park and unload. The crane extends from the side, so we also need width clearance. See our transport page for detailed diagrams.
Our containers are water-tight. However, condensation can occur if temperatures change rapidly. If you store sensitive items such as documents or textiles, we suggest using moisture traps or lining the container to prevent moisture.
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.
