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.

Standard

Manufactured to commercial standards and modified for static storage, our 24ft containers offer extra width and capacity – ideal for storing larger or awkwardly shaped items, or simply when 20ft isn’t enough.

Available with jacklegs for uneven terrain. These adjustable legs ensure stable positioning on uneven ground, making them ideal for construction and infrastructure sites where stacking or levelling is required.

Lockbox

A secure lock box is included as standard on all containers and cabins, providing extra protection for your padlock and maximum security against theft and tampering.

Padlock with 2 Keys

Heavy-duty padlock with 2 keys included for every hire, and available to purchase with all container and cabin sales. Keep your storage secure with a robust lock perfect for all containers and cabins.

Footprint Slabs

Footprint slabs (pack of 4) help level your container or cabin and protect ground surfaces from damage. Ideal for easy, stable placement on grass or uneven ground.

Absorbapoles

Absorbapoles actively absorb moisture to prevent condensation, humidity, and mould inside your container. Keep your stored items dry, fresh, and protected year-round.

Spray Foam Insulation

Upgrade with spray foam insulation on the ceiling to reduce condensation and improve comfort in your container or cabin. Perfect for domestic use and furniture-grade storage.

Colour Repaint

Choose a single RAL colour repaint to customise the exterior of your container or cabin. Achieve a fresh, professional look that matches your style or brand.

Solar Flood Light

Add a container-mounted solar flood light to brighten your site with reliable, energy-efficient lighting. Perfect for added security and visibility—available for sale with your container or cabin purchase.

Racking

Maximise your storage with container racking—custom-fit shelves that help you organise and access your items easily. Turn your container into an efficient, clutter-free workspace.

Light Board

Add a light board for bright, energy-efficient lighting inside your container (requires electrical hook-up). Improve visibility and safety for any workspace or storage setup.

Additional Vents

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I work for Giant Storage. We had 14 containers delivered to our Frome location in the last 3 days. All the staff were very helpful and sorted out the placement of containers how we wanted them put down. A special thanks to Steve and Mouse who delivered the last 4 containers today and also had to position the last 4 from yesterday's delivery as the lorry didn't have lifting chains for positioning the containers for us. Always a pleasure to work with any of the team. Thankyou for the professional services.
