Who uses containers in Coventry?
Coventry’s long history in engineering and manufacturing means lots of local firms need secure storage for parts, tooling and finished goods. A shipping container in the yard is often the quickest and most affordable way to add space.
We also supply containers to homeowners in Kenilworth, Leamington and Bedworth for garden storage, to sports clubs and schools for equipment stores, and steel site cabins to contractors working on regeneration projects around the city.
Container delivery to Coventry
We deliver throughout Coventry and nearby areas including Kenilworth, Warwick, Leamington Spa, Bedworth, Nuneaton, Rugby and Solihull, with easy access via the M6, M69, A45 and A46.
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 Coventry
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 Coventry City Council before you buy.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need planning permission for a container in Coventry?
Temporary site storage is usually fine, but a permanent container may need planning permission. Check with Coventry City Council if you are unsure.
Which container size is best for a small business?
A 20ft container is the most popular choice, holding around 10 standard pallets. For smaller spaces, a 10ft or 16ft unit may be a better fit. We can help you choose.
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.
