Preparing your site for delivery
Whether you are in Coventry, Cambridge, Brentwood or Cannock, delivery day goes more smoothly with a little preparation. Measure the access route for width, height and turning space, and check for overhead cables, parked cars and low bridges that could stop a delivery lorry. The ground at the final position should be firm and level, with sleepers, concrete pads or hardcore underneath to keep the container stable and the doors working.
Planning rules vary by council. A container used for simple storage on private land may be treated differently from one used as an office, workshop or shop, so it is worth checking with your local planning team before you order. The Planning Portal explains the national rules and links to local authority guidance.
Security is another point to plan. Choose a position that can be seen from the building, fit a suitable lock or lockbox, and think about ventilation if you will store tools or stock for long periods. When you request quotes, give the postcode, preferred size and intended use so suppliers can price delivery accurately and advise which container grade suits the job.
If you are unsure which size to choose, start with the space you need today and allow some room for growth. A slightly larger container can be better value than needing a second unit later.
