Shipping Containers for Tradespeople & Builders

Secure site storage for tradespeople and builders across the UK. Minimum 3 year rental period with buyout option at any time following delivery.

Secure storage for live sites

Our containers are built for the world's harshest cargo routes, so a muddy plot in February holds no fear. They are wind and water tight, with hard-wearing marine-grade steel and durable door seals that keep plant, materials and power tools dry and out of sight. Every unit takes a padlock, and we fit a steel lock box over the locking bar as standard to defeat bolt croppers.

Tool stores, welfare and site offices

Need more than four walls? We convert containers into fully fitted site offices and welfare units, insulated, wired and ready to work in, with options for canteens, drying rooms and toilet blocks. Talk to us early and we will spec the conversion around your programme.

Flexible hire terms or outright purchase

Cash flow on site moves fast, so we keep terms flexible. Take a unit on monthly hire for the length of a job, buy outright for the yard, or spread the cost with lease purchase and own it at the end of the term.

Delivered to site, positioned to the inch

We deliver nationwide from twelve UK depots on HIAB-equipped vehicles that lift and place the container exactly where you want it. The driver needs firm, level ground and a little room each side to extend the stabilisers. Tell us about access, overhead cables or tight approaches when you book.

The right size for the job

  • 6ft & 8ft for compact tool stores in tight compounds
  • 10ft for the middle ground on smaller sites
  • 20ft as the workhorse for plant and materials
  • 40ft and double-door for capacity and drive-through access

Why builders choose Triple Eight

A family-run supplier since 1999, with over 1,800 containers on hire to sites and yards across the country. We supply new one-trip stock rather than tired, dented hire-fleet units, give straight answers on the phone, and make a delivery promise you can build a programme around.

Frequently asked questions

Can you deliver to a live construction site?
Yes. Our HIAB vehicles place the container precisely on site. We just need firm, level ground and clearance to extend the stabilisers, so flag any access restrictions or overhead cables when you book.
How secure are the containers?
Every unit can be padlocked, and we fit a steel lock box over the locking mechanism as standard to resist bolt croppers.
Can I hire rather than buy?
Yes, we offer flexible rental terms over a minimum period of 3 years. You can purchase the container at any time after delivery.
Do you supply welfare units and site offices?
We do: insulated, wired site offices and welfare conversions built to your spec.
