About Us
Innovation
Back in 2002 was when Container Sales (UK) Ltd was initially founded by Director Keith Wilson.
In those days, we began as a means to source containers for the mobile storage group now known as Algeco Group! How time flies!
In the same year, we began to notice containers arriving from China, referred to as “one-way” containers. These containers were newly manufactured and packed with cargo on their way to the UK. Once emptied, the containers could be sold and regarded as new build containers.
With such a huge advantage now staring us in the face, especially when compared to the price of anything that could be manufactured in the UK, we began leading the way in the container industry and stocking large quantities of these containers to sell on to businesses and individuals who required them.
Investment
Since then, our business model has always been to provide new and used containers to customers who need them, no matter what the quantity or type.
Therefore, this means always having ownership and control of enough shipping containers to suit a wide range of needs for our customers. We normally hold stock worth around £2 million at any one time to meet the needs and requirements of businesses in Scotland and across North East England.
Simplicity
At Container Sales (UK) Ltd we like to keep things simple, even though we are a big name in the container industry. We don’t offer refurbishing or converting services when it comes to shipping containers and proudly have long-term alliances, who we refer these enquiries to.
We like to put a focus on simply buying, stocking, selling and delivering containers from a number of depots in Scotland and across North East England to suit the needs of our customers.
By keeping things simple, this helps us consistently keep prices competitive, quality high, our tailored services unbeatable…
