What our clients say

Rated 5.0 on Google. Don’t take our word for it — take theirs.

The formidable team at Triple Eight have been supplying containers to Admirals Yard Self Storage at sites throughout the UK for eight years, and they remain our principal supplier — need I say more?

Triple Eight are a fantastic company to work with. We have purchased many containers from them and couldn’t be more pleased. Their customer service is second to none and their pricing is competitive. Would recommend them to anyone.
John Holcroft
We have ordered many 20ft containers from Marina at Triple Eight Containers — it’s always a smooth, hassle-free transition. Both Deb and Marina are very helpful and know their stuff very well. We’ll certainly be ordering more. Five-star service.

Would highly recommend Triple Eight Containers. The communication and customer service was brilliant from start to end. Lovely people, easy to work with. Will use again for future projects.
Ema AshworthBarn Store Stroud
Superb customer service and very helpful financing options. We’ve been a customer since 2007 and I can’t recommend Marina and her team highly enough.
Edward Howard
The option to buy out containers rented to us by Triple Eight is a major advantage, and they always have stock for immediate delivery whenever we require them.
Jonathan
I got some containers delivered for my business and the whole process was made incredibly easy by Marina. Would purchase again.
BB
Other container companies didn’t offer the option to lease just a single container. Marina and her colleague Leila explained the different options and we agreed a lease that suited me, with the benefit of a buyout whenever I was ready.
Luke Harris
We’ve used Triple Eight Containers for the supply of our various container units. In our experience they’ve been efficient, reliable and the products of good quality. They’ve been our preferred supplier for many years.
JJ
Very straightforward and transparent from the outset. Highly recommend.

Our Conversion Services

Container conversions have become increasingly popular amongst businesses and individuals. What starts as a simple shipping container can be transformed into a professional office, an organised storage facility, or a practical workspace. The possibilities are extensive, and our experienced team is here to help you with your project.

Each shipping container conversion begins with a consultation to understand your requirements. We will discuss your intended use, space needs, access requirements, and any specific features you require. Our team will recommend appropriate container size and configuration, outline conversion options, and provide a detailed quotation for the completed project.

The Conversion Process

Our container conversions follow a structured process from initial enquiry through to delivery:

Typical shipping container conversion modifications include window and door installation, electrical fitting, insulation and lining, flooring upgrades, and interior fit-out according to application. Office conversions may include heating, lighting, power outlets, and desk installations. Storage conversions feature shelving, racking, and organisational systems. Cabin conversions provide basic weatherproof shelter with options for power and lighting.

  • Initial consultation to understand your requirements and objectives
  • Design phase where we create a plan for your conversion
  • Quotation providing clear costs and timescales
  • Sourcing a suitable new container from our inventory
  • Conversion work carried out by experienced technicians
  • Quality inspection before delivery
  • Delivery and placement at your location

Quality and Materials

We use only high-quality materials and proven construction techniques in our conversions:

  • New one-trip containers as the base for all conversions
  • Quality insulation materials for thermal comfort
  • Professional-grade electrical components
  • Durable flooring suitable for the intended use
  • Weatherproof windows and doors
  • Professional finishing and detailing throughout

Environmental considerations are also important. Converting a shipping container repurposes an existing structure, reducing the need for new materials and minimising waste. The steel construction is durable and long-lasting, providing decades of service with minimal maintenance.

After-Sales Support

Our relationship with you does not end at delivery. We provide ongoing support for all our converted containers, answering questions and addressing any issues that may arise. Our commitment to customer satisfaction means you can rely on us long after your container is in place.

Contact Triple Eight Containers today to discuss your container conversion project. Our team will guide you through the options and provide a detailed quotation for your specific requirements.
