The Advantages of Flat Pack Containers: Flexible, Durable, and Easy to Assemble

Flat pack containers have revolutionised the way businesses and individuals think about portable storage and modular spaces. Whether you need extra storage, a workshop, a temporary workspace, or something entirely unique, flat pack containers offer a host of advantages that make them a go-to choice. At our company, we provide a range of flat pack containers in various sizes, starting from 2m to 6m in length, all with a standard width of 2.1m. Let’s explore why flat pack containers are the smart solution for your space and storage needs.

1. Man-Portable Design for Easy Handling

One of the most appealing features of flat pack containers is their man-portable design. This means that all the individual pieces of the container can be easily offloaded or moved by a sufficient number of people.

  • No Need for Heavy Machinery: Unlike traditional containers, flat pack containers eliminate the need for forklifts or cranes during delivery and installation.

  • Effortless Assembly: The assembly process is simple and straightforward. Typically, a flat pack container can be built within 45 minutes to 1 hour using only basic tools such as a socket set and a spanner. This makes them ideal for quick installations and on-the-spot setups.

2. Built to Last: Galvanised Frames and Metal Panels

Durability is key when investing in a container, and flat pack containers do not disappoint.

  • Galvanised Metal Construction: The frames, walls, and roof are made of galvanised metal, providing excellent resistance to corrosion and ensuring a long lifespan, even in harsh weather conditions.

  • Robust Flooring: The floor section features 18mm OSB boards with a 250kg/m² load-bearing capacity, making it strong enough for heavy-duty applications, from storing tools and machinery to setting up temporary offices or workshops.


3. Versatile Aesthetics and Protection

We offer two primary finish options for our flat pack containers:

  • Plain Galvanised (Silver): A clean, industrial look that blends well into most environments.

  • Powder Coated Options: For those who want enhanced protection and a more polished aesthetic, powder coating is the way to go. It provides an extra layer of protection against wear and tear while offering customisable colours to suit your preferences.


4. Modular and Expandable Design

Flat pack containers are incredibly versatile when it comes to creating larger spaces. Thanks to their modular design, they can be easily linked together to form extended spaces.

  • Linking Kits for Larger Configurations:

    • For example, you can link two 3m containers from the long side to create a space measuring 3m x 4.2m.

    • Alternatively, combine three 4m containers to create a space of 4m x 6.3m.

    • Containers can also be linked from the ends, giving you endless possibilities for customisation.

This modular capability makes flat pack containers ideal for various applications, from storage solutions to pop-up workspaces and more.

5. Flexible Door Options

Flat pack containers come with a standard large opening door located at one end, but we also offer customisable door options to meet your specific needs:

  • Double Doors: For those who require wider access, double doors can be added on the side or at the ends. This makes it easy to load and unload larger items.

  • Custom Placement: We can position the doors based on your preferences, ensuring the container works perfectly for its intended purpose.

6. Affordable and Flexible Delivery Options

When it comes to delivery, we offer two options to suit your budget and circumstances:

  • Flatbed Vehicle Delivery: This is the most affordable option if you have a few spare hands on-site to offload the container. The man-portable design makes this a simple task.

  • Hiab Delivery: For added convenience, we can deliver your container with a Hiab lorry equipped with a crane, allowing us to offload the container directly to the kerbside.

Both options ensure your container arrives safely and securely at your location.


7. Wide Range of Applications

Flat pack containers are a practical solution for countless scenarios. Their portability, ease of assembly, and versatility make them ideal for:

  • Construction Sites: Temporary storage for tools, materials, and equipment.

  • Events: Secure storage for event supplies or pop-up office spaces.

  • Workshops: Ideal for small businesses or DIY enthusiasts.
