Shipping containers are very popular right now. There are many uses for shipping containers ranging from storage to office spaces.

Shipping container owners are beginning to put their creative energies to use and turning their shipping containers into all sorts of things! We have found some of the most innovative uses for shipping containers around today.

1: A pop-up shop

Pop-up shops are quite a trend at the moment. Many major clothing companies have launched pop-up shops across the country as an accessible way for consumers to get their products.


Using a shipping container for your pop-up shop is a great way of showing that your business is unique. As shipping containers come in various sizes and colours, they are customizable enough to ensure they are fit for purpose and to coordinate with your brand.


At Cambridge Shipping Containers, we offer various sized containers, ranging from 8ft to 40ft! We can also provide an assortment of accessories to help keep your container as secure and as practical for purpose as possible.

 


2: A Swimming Pool

For many people, it will always be a dream to have your very own swimming pool in your back garden. Well, now you can! A 20ft or 40ft shipping container makes a pretty big swimming pool. With no major work, you can have yours up and running quite quickly!


Here at Cambridge Shipping Containers, we also sell open-top containers; these are perfect for all kinds of wacky creations!


3: A Garden Shed

A shed can be the staple of a gorgeous garden. Shipping Containers can be great for using as a garden shed. They come in a variety of colours; that way, you can make your shed as bright or as camouflaged as possible, depending on your tastes.


The durability of shipping containers also make them great for using as a garden shed; they won’t rot, like a wooden shed might do, and you can attach all kinds of fixtures to the inside to customise it as much as you want to suit your needs. You can even make your shed insulated, so you can continue working on your projects in the colder months!


At Cambridge Shipping Containers, we offer ply lining and insulation for all of our shipping containers in order to help keep out the damp and the cold.
