Agriculture & Horticulture: Resilient Infrastructure That Protects Your Yield

All-Weather, Vermin-Proof General Storage

A shipping container is the modern workhorse for any grower. A 20ft hire container provides a compact, secure home for tools, seeds, irrigation spares, and packaging, instantly decluttering existing sheds. For larger machinery, quad bikes, or bulk substrates, a 40ft unit consolidates your assets under a single, heavy-duty steel roof.

Fabricated from Corten steel, our containers are inherently weather-tight and vermin-proof. We can enhance them with additional vents, anti-condensation linings to protect sensitive items from moisture, and custom shelving. High-security lock-boxes deter theft, while durable marine-grade plywood floors are built to withstand heavy foot traffic and the occasional split bag.

Preserve Harvest Quality with a Dependable Cold Chain

Protecting the value of your yield is paramount. Our food-grade 20ft and 40ft refrigerated containers allow you to establish a reliable cold chain on-site. They are perfect for stabilising the temperature of soft fruits, salad crops, or cut flowers immediately after harvesting, preserving freshness, extending shelf-life, and reducing waste. Positioned next to your packhouse, they simplify compliance audits and streamline your entire field-to-gate process.

Solutions for Tall, Long, and Awkward Equipment

Not all farm equipment fits in a standard box. For moving tall trellis systems, bulky irrigation frames, or other machinery, an open-top container allows for simple loading by crane or telehandler. For items with an irregular footprint, flat-racks provide a secure and stable platform. For larger assemblies, the 40ft open-top and 40ft flat-rack ensure that even the most cumbersome lifts are handled safely and efficiently.

Expert Siting for Farms and Nurseries

We understand the unique logistical challenges of the urban fringe, from unmade tracks to soft ground and gradients. Our process includes a thorough remote assessment of your site's access and ground-bearing capacity. We work with you to plan the delivery and offer practical advice on ground preparation to ensure the container sits level for optimal performance. Our Delivery Guidelines explain this in plain English. Sharing photos via the Container Quote form will help us propose the safest offload spot.

Strategic Choice: Hire for Seasons, Buy for Stability

Our options are designed to match your business cycle. For seasonal peaks like planting or harvest, hiring provides flexible, cost-effective capacity exactly when you need it, without the year-round cost. For permanent, long-term operations, owning a unit is a valuable farm asset. It allows for full customisation through our Converted Containers service, letting you create a dedicated workshop, potting shed, or secure tack room.
