OUR PRICES

Container pricing isn’t one-size-fits-all. It depends on the size and type of container you choose, your delivery location, and any special requirements such as any additional Cleveland XTRAS. For more details, please get in touch with our team.

DELIVERY INFORMATION

Deliveries and collections are typically carried out using crane-fitted HIAB lorries, allowing us to safely lift and position your container exactly where you need it. We’ll agree a suitable delivery date with you in advance and work to minimise any disruption on site. All you need to do is ensure the ground is level and properly prepared for placement before arrival.

For a step-by-step guide covering access requirements, ground preparation, space needed for a HIAB, and what to expect on the day, take a look at our blog: Shipping Container Delivery: Everything You Need to Know.
