Why buy from us?

We are a leading supplier of new and used containers in the UK. Our team have over 35 years experience in the industry and are more than happy to assist with any enquiry you have.. big or small.

Do you modify containers?

Yes we do, we have a design team on hand to assist with specific requirements.

Do you buy back containers?

Yes, we are always happy to discuss the buy back of units previously purchased. All prices will be subject to the second hand market at that time, the condition of the unit and transport cost implications.

Can I visit your site?

FD Containers are one of the only depots who offer our customers the option to come and view our extensive range of new and second-hand shipping containers in person at our main depot and office in Cleland, Scotland. As we are a working yard, for reasons of health and safety please call and make an appointment in advance. 

Can you arrange transport?

 Yes we can organise the transport, taking all the stress out of your new purchase.

We only use experienced and proven hauliers that are reliable and helpful at the most important time, ensuring your unit is positioned and placed as you wish. (If there are technical issues to be considered we can advise you on this as well).

Can you accommodate colour requests?

The new and used options that we have in stock will be a variety of colours. If the colour you require is not available we can paint whatever RAL colour you require.

Do I need planning permission?

Storage units are considered to be temporary structures and so would not normally need planning permission. However, we advise being sensitive to the local environment, for instance we can supply green units for countryside areas. If you are in doubt it may be prudent to check with your local authority.
