Self-Storage Container Conversion

We provide a highly configurable converted shipping container option for the self-storage industry. We call them “Topper” Storage Units. We offer two different solutions, a double 8ft storage space with a 4ft walkway in the middle and a single 15ft storage unit with a 5ft walkway situated at the end of the 20ft container. They are designed to be mounted on top of each other and a range of staircases with different landing are also available.

Converted Shipping Container School

At CFS we offer our customers a full in-house container conversion service and delivery to every corner of the UK from our local workshops. In this project we transformed two 40ft shipping containers into a classroom for Redbridge School. Joining both containers together and eliminating their common walls us allowed to create a flexible interior, featured with PVC windows, electrics and A/C unit. A pitched roof covered both containers and gave a cohesive look to the final result.
