24ft Containers – Purpose-Built for Stacking with 24ft Cabins

Our 24ft shipping containers are specially designed to stack directly beneath 24ft cabins, offering a smart, space-saving solution when a 20ft setup just won’t cut it. At 9ft wide, they perfectly match the footprint of a 24ft canteen or office cabin, giving you safe and stable vertical stacking for larger site setups.

Made from durable steel and fully wind and watertight, these 24ft containers provide secure storage for tools, equipment, and materials on busy construction and infrastructure sites. Delivered by our own SOS transport fleet – no third-party hauliers – we guarantee fast, flexible service with clear, upfront pricing and no hidden extras. Backed by our friendly, family-run team, it’s stacking made simple.

Great experience with Storage on Site today. Mouse helped us arrange the welfare units for our project - he was helpful, polite and made the whole process easy. It was a pleasure working with him. I'd happily recommend Storage on Site. Thanks!

Received our new 20ft container in RAL6007 this morning and it looks fantastic and Storage on Site driver Harry Wood made an excellent job with positioning the container in our clients preferred position. Great work Harry and our client was extremely happy, well done.

S.O.S containers are our incumbent suppliers here at the Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa.  Nothing is too much trouble! Dwayne their delivery driver is a legend! Incredibly skilled lifter, managed to tuck a container under a gable and get it much closer than I thought possible to the wall, not a scratch on anything. Handy reversing with a trailer too.
Would I recommend Storage on Site, definitely.
Would I play Jenga against Dwayne.... No!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service from start to finish.

The containers we had delivered were absolutely immaculate — perfectly clean, in excellent condition and exactly what we needed. I was particularly impressed with how well presented they were on arrival.

Kim and her team have been fantastic throughout the whole process. Communication was excellent, everything was well organised, and the delivery went very smoothly. Nothing was too much trouble, and the level of customer service has been first class.

It has been a pleasure dealing with such a professional, friendly and helpful company. I would have no hesitation in using them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for containers and a reliable, high-quality service.

Thank you again to Kim and the whole team!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend this delivery service enough, specifically our driver, Mouse. We required a container delivery in an exceptionally challenging area with tight spatial constraints, low clearance, and overhead cables. Despite the difficult conditions and no guarantee of success, Mouse took on the job with a brilliant attitude. He maneuvered the container into place flawlessly. We joked that his precision was like a high-level game of Tetris. Truly exceptional driving skills and fantastic customer service
