Shipping Container Cladded Garage
You don’t always have to spend your money on conversions if you are handy yourself. In April 2024, a customer purchased two used containers and turned them into a cladded shipping container garage. Converting your basic containers into cladded projects can be a wonderful way of disguising what they actually are. Although we have some very smart looking boxes, we understand not everyone wants a shipping container sat in their front garden!

The initial used 20ft container was turned into a cladded garage, done with a pre-existing container our customer had already purchased. Then taking a used 40ft container, adding a lick of paint and cladding, they created a smart storage unit. These matching projects completely elevated what would have been your average front garden.
When it comes to conversions, almost anything is possible. In some cases, less is more. Our customer has cut two apertures out of the side, cladded the exterior, and added in some heating and electricity. Cladding is a popular option of bringing new life to a used container, whilst saving some pennies in the purchasing process!
Used 40fts for Storage
Used shipping containers are one of the cheapest options offered. Whilst being less expensive they’re still a popular option when it comes to conversions as all are structurally sound and come with a wind and watertight guarantee (unless stated otherwise). From our used containers you should expect 10+ years of solid storage and with converting and maintenance, many more.
If you are after something a little smarter cosmetics wise, we wouldn’t always recommend a used container when looking to convert. Having been used by the shipping lines for years, they will have dents, surface rust and general wear and tear. If you weren’t planning on cladding your shipping container, you can easily smarten up your unit by going for a refurbished shipping container or even a one-trip shipping container.
Shipping Container Conversions
Possibilities are endless when it comes to conversions. Transform your container into a really smart unit with simple cladding and apertures.
If you wanted an enclosed unit, there are plenty of options for doors, windows or skylights. Air-con units and heaters can get your container ready for sun or snow.
If you were looking for a full conversion, we have standard office specs which you can customise to your own needs. Kitted out with electrics and lined and insulated, these units get dropped to you ready to be used. Even add a kitchenette to satisfy all your tea cravings.
Our customer went for cladding, hence getting away with a used 40ft, which they did themselves. If you’re not so handy or don’t fancy the workload, we can do timber cladding in our yard, and again, customise this to your needs.
