Used Shipping Containers

View Gallery

Mr Box supplies a selection of storage and shipping containers for sale or rent, new and used, in varying sizes and specifications.

Our second-hand containers are supplied structurally sound and water tight and suitable as secure storage containers. They can also be certified as suitable for shipping. All our used containers are inspected by our own depots prior to release.

We guarantee the condition of our equipment and if you are dissatisfied in any way we will either refund your money, or pay for any remedial repairs.

All our containers have:

  • High tensile anti-corrosion corten steel construction.
  • Double opening doors on one end fitted with locking bars and locking catches.
  • Marine ply floors tested to ISO standards.
  • Ventilators for air circulation.
  • Anti theft padlock cowls.

Using containers is also an environmentally friendly solution in that they have fulfilled their primary role of carrying cargo, and can then be adapted for a secondary use.  Cost effective re-cycling!
