    Frequently Asked Questions

    • What are the standard sizes of shipping containers?

      Shipping containers come in a variety of sizes to suit different needs:

      • 6ft containers: The smallest option, ideal for tight spaces or small storage needs.
      • 8ft containers: A compact choice for secure storage or small-scale projects.
      • 10ft containers: Portable and versatile, perfect for construction sites or event storage.
      • 20ft containers: The most popular size, offering ample space for storage or conversions.
      • 40ft containers: Best for large-scale storage, transportation, or custom projects.

       

      Additionally, 20ft and 40ft containers are available in high cube options, which provide an extra foot of height (9’6” instead of 8’6”), making them ideal for projects that require additional headroom.

    • What is the difference between single-trip new containers and used containers?

      • Single-trip new containers:
        • Manufactured in the Far East and used to ship goods to the UK just once.
        • They are essentially brand new, with minimal wear and tear.
        • Offer a clean, modern appearance, making them ideal for businesses, container conversions, or high-quality storage.
      • Used containers:
        • Previously owned and used for multiple shipments or storage.
        • More affordable than new containers, making them a cost-effective solution for budget-conscious projects.
        • May show signs of wear but are still structurally sound and weatherproof.
    • What are the benefits of high cube containers?

      High cube containers, available in 20ft and 40ft sizes, provide an extra foot of height, making them ideal for:

      • Storing taller equipment or goods.
      • Adding extra comfort for container conversions like offices or retail units.
      • Maximising storage without increasing the container’s footprint.
    • How secure are shipping containers for storage?

      Shipping containers, including high cube options, are made from durable corten steel, providing weatherproof and tamper-resistant storage. You can enhance security with features like lockboxes & heavy-duty padlocks

    • How do I prepare my site for a shipping container?

      To place a container on your site, ensure:

      • The ground is level and firm (concrete or compacted soil is ideal).
      • There is enough space for delivery and installation.
      • Access routes can accommodate the size of the container and delivery vehicle.

    • Do shipping containers require planning permission?

      In most cases, temporary use of shipping containers doesn’t require planning permission. However, if the container is modified for permanent use or significantly changes the appearance of a site, you may need to consult your local council.

    • Can shipping containers be used for more than storage?

      Yes, shipping containers are versatile and can be converted into offices, retail units, cafes, event spaces, and even pop-up shops. Customisation options like insulation, lighting, and plumbing make them suitable for various purposes.

    Why You Can Trust Us!

    Here’s what our customers say about the using Vinco.

    Working with Danielle and the team at Vinco has been an absolute pleasure. From initial specification of our container conversion, we were supported fully with detailed drawings of our ideas, which allowed us to make informed decisions and realise our project goals. Danielle and the team worked tirelessly to ensure our ideas were understood, visualised and realised during manufacturing, for which we are very grateful. Communication was outstanding. We would most certainly recommend Vinco and their skilled engineers for any container conversion you may be considering, our container was to a very high specification and we couldn’t be more pleased with the craftsmanship. Well done and thanks to everyone involved in realising this project for us.

    From start to delivery of our container I can't fault my dealings with Vinco. We worked with them to design and spec out a 20ft container and they have delivered beyond our expectations. Amazing team and workmanship.

    Great service from Joe and Danielle and a good price for the container. I would always use Vinco for containers, offices, toilet blocks etc.

    After looking at lots of different options for a container fit-out for our terrace kitchen, we finally sided with Vinco after they were recommended to me. We were short on time and still had lots of planning to do in terms of the design and final layout of the unit. Danielle was an absolute superstar, from our first interaction she filled me with confidence that the project could be delivered on time and (when compared to other companies) at a very reasonable cost. Her customer service was impeccable and she managed the project brilliantly! We're really happy with the finished product & would 100% use them again.

    Vinco were fantastic throughout the whole process - very competitively priced (and we compared detailed quotes from a number of local and nationwide suppliers) and very flexible to changing requirements. What really made the difference was the way that all the staff we dealt with really went the extra mile to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. Would give 6 stars if I could.

    The recent £1.8m Hereford Cycle Track at Hereford Leisure Centre required a solution for cycle storage, accessible toilets and a small social hub. Various options were proposed but we feel fortunate to have met the Team at Vinco who helped guide us towards what we feel was the best solution within our budget. Nothing was too much trouble and we have since purchased additional storage as our fleet of adaptive cycles has already increased. We are already scoping another project where Vinco Services will be called upon and we would not hesitate to recommend the Vinco team
