Shipping Container hire used for business storage needs

Whatever business you are involved in, offices will generate an enormous amount of paperwork.

Quite often, much of this needs to be stored for years due to Government regulations, as well as good housekeeping.

Filing cabinets and disused offices can only hold so much and, once at full capacity, this is where an archive container storage can come in handy.

If space is an issue then container hire is the answer for your businesses storage needs.

Shipping Containers used as “playpod” in school playground

An old shipping container in the playground of St Keyna School in Keynsham, Somerset has turned into a must-have item for pupils.

The school have used shipping containers to convert into a “playpod” for the young children at the school.

Rob Sandel, deputy headteacher of St Keyna Primary School, said: “The introduction of the PlayPod has been a tremendously positive development for our school. Our children have really enjoyed the opportunities it has given them to get involved in a very wide variety of imaginative and creative play activities.

The brightly painted Playpod, which contains fun and colourful materials designed to encourage children to play outside, is on loan from Bath and North East Somerset Council.

Cornwall Council consider shipping container hire for local shop

Cornwall councillors are considering plans for a shipping container to be placed in a lay-by to sell local farmers’ produce.

The ‘shopbylayby’ scheme is the idea of Nigel Pengelly, who is hoping to introduce a chain of similar outlets to compete with supermarkets.

The planning committee is making a decision on the 20ft by 8ft by 8ft 6in container, which would be clad in wood and sited in the lay-by.

In a report, Mr Pengelly said the lay-by was already used by traders but their stock was limited because they had to move off each day – recommending the use of shipping container hire as a solution.

The container shop would sell local produce such as vegetables, bread, milk and cheese.
