Who uses containers in Tamworth?

Homeowners across Tamworth, Fazeley and Polesworth often choose a 10ft or 16ft container for garden storage, and local builders use steel anti-vandal cabins and site offices on housing developments around the town.
Container delivery to Tamworth
We deliver throughout Tamworth and nearby areas including Lichfield, Polesworth, Atherstone, Fazeley, Sutton Coldfield and Nuneaton, with easy access via the M42, A5 and A38.
Containers are delivered by HIAB crane lorry or tilt-and-slide lorry, depending on your site. To make delivery go smoothly:
- Make sure a lorry can reach the drop-off point and has room to manoeuvre.
- Check for overhead cables or trees if a crane lorry is needed.
- Prepare firm, level ground. Sleepers, concrete pads or hardcore make a good base and keep the floor off damp ground.
- Leave enough space in front of the doors to open them fully.
Send us your postcode and a few details about access and we will confirm the best delivery method and a delivered price.
Planning permission in Tamworth
Whether you need planning permission depends on where the container goes, what you use it for and how long it stays. If you are unsure, check with Tamworth Borough Council before you buy.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need planning permission for a container in Tamworth?
Temporary storage on a construction site is usually fine, but a permanent container may need planning permission. Check with Tamworth Borough Council if you are unsure.
What size container fits on a driveway?
A 10ft container, about 3m by 2.4m, fits most driveways. Check you have room to open the doors and that a lorry can reach the drop-off point.
What size shipping container do I need?
A 10ft container suits garden and domestic storage, a 20ft container is the most popular all-rounder for homes and businesses, and a 40ft container gives the most space for large stock, machinery or commercial projects. If you are unsure, tell us what you want to store and we will recommend a size.
Should I buy a new or used container?
New (one-trip) containers have made a single sea voyage and look almost new. Used containers cost less and are still wind and watertight, making them ideal for storage. Read our guide to new vs used shipping containers for more detail.
