Rent Storage Containers in Hillingdon

Flexible Container Hire Terms

We designed our hire service with flexibility in mind. You can rent a container for as little as 8 weeks, which suits short-term projects such as building work or event storage. If your project extends, you simply keep the container for as long as you need it.

To keep costs transparent, we take a haulage collection deposit at the start of the hire. We use this fund to collect the empty containers when you finish with them. This ensures you know the full transport cost upfront. We check every unit before dispatch to ensure it is wind and watertight, guaranteeing your goods stay dry.

Available Container Sizes and Types

We stock a wide range of container types to meet specific storage challenges. While standard boxes are most common, we can supply specialised equipment for difficult loads.

20ft Containers for Rent

The 20ft standard container is our most popular hire unit. It fits into a standard car parking space (20ft long by 8ft wide) and holds roughly the contents of a three-bedroom house. It is compact enough for most driveways in Hillingdon but spacious enough for site tools and materials.

• 20ft Flat Racks – Open-sided units for machinery or timber.
• 20ft Open Tops – Removable roof bows allow crane loading from above.
• 20ft Refrigerated Containers – Temperature-controlled storage for food, flowers, or pharmaceuticals.

40ft Containers for Rent

If you have the space, a 40ft container offers double the volume. These units are ideal for large construction projects, logistics hubs, and commercial inventory storage.

• 40ft Flat Racks – Heavy-duty platforms for oversized cargo.
• 40ft Open Tops – Simplify loading for tall or awkward items.
• 40ft Refrigerated Containers – Large-scale cold storage for catering or events.

Security and Construction

We build our hire fleet from Corten steel (weathering steel). This material resists corrosion and withstands the British weather. Even if the paint chips, the steel forms a protective layer that stops rust from penetrating the wall.

Security is a priority. We fit our rental units with a lockbox. This is a steel cowl that covers the padlock and shackle, protecting them from bolt croppers, angle grinders, and tampering. The doors feature heavy-duty rubber seals and locking bars to ensure the unit remains secure and weatherproof.

Delivery to Hillingdon

We deliver your container using a HIAB truck with an onboard crane. Our delivery team is well-versed in navigating Hillingdon’s key routes, from the busy M4 corridor near Heathrow to the residential streets of Northwood and Ickenham. The driver lifts the container from the vehicle and places it on the ground.

Ground Conditions

You must provide hard-standing ground, such as concrete, tarmac, or compacted hardcore. We cannot place containers on grass or soft soil, as the delivery truck may sink, or the container may shift over time. If the container is not level, the doors will twist and jam. We recommend using railway sleepers or concrete blocks to support the corners and keep the floor dry.

Access Requirements

Ensure the truck can access your site. For a 20ft container, the driver needs about 60 feet of straight-line space to unload. For a 40ft unit, this increases to roughly 110 feet. You must also check for overhead hazards, such as power lines and tree branches. For more details, read our Delivery Guidelines.

Container Sales

If you need a permanent storage solution, buying may be more cost-effective than long-term hire. We sell new and used containers in 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft sizes. Buying gives you a fixed asset that you can modify or paint to match your branding. View our containers for sale in Hillingdon.
