A standard 20ft container is 6.06m long by 2.44m wide — roughly the size of one car parking space end-to-end. It fits a single car with room for workshop storage around it, but it's not a double garage replacement. For that, a 40ft container (12.19m long) gives you the floor space to park two cars or run a proper workshop. Phil can advise on which size fits your site.

For temporary storage use under 28 days, planning permission is not usually required in England. For longer-term siting as a permanent structure, you may need permitted development consent or full planning permission depending on your location and local authority. If you're placing it on agricultural land, the rules differ again. Phil can point you in the right direction based on your intended use.

A standard 20ft container is 2.59m tall externally (roughly 2.35m internal height). A 20ft high cube adds 31cm to the height — 2.90m external, roughly 2.70m internal. That extra headroom makes a real difference if you're using the container as a changing room, small office, or workspace. High cube 20ft containers start from £1,700 delivered.
