EIGHT WHOLE FEET OF TOUGHENED STEEL SPACE

Our 8ft shipping containers might not be huge, but they have one big attraction that people love: they’re great value. Compared to wooden garden sheds, which can fall apart in no time, our 8ft shipping containers are built to last for decades – and they won’t break the bank.

Even our well-used, super-affordable C-grade containers (contact us for stock availability) that are available for sale have many years left in them. If you’re buying one of these, some TLC can help keep the elements out for a decade or more.

If, however, you want to rent 8ft shipping containers from TITAN, as many clients do because we have no long-term tie-ins, we have them at our depots across New Zealand in a wealth of colours.

Choose from blue, green, black, red and more. We even have some white ones, which look great on a winter’s morning (and are also a bit easier to see in the dark!).

Protection for work or business goods

When you rent an 8ft shipping container from us or buy one, you gain access to your very own mini Fort Knox. Seriously – these pint-sized powerhouses are extremely hard to break into.

Private customers use them for storing bikes, moving home and a hundred other reasons. Business users, meanwhile, use our 8ft storage centres in dozens of different ways, including keeping stock and work tools safe and dry.

WHAT CAN YOU FIT IN AN 8FT SHIPPING CONTAINER?

Our 8ft container is quite a big step up from our 6ft container and is notably larger in height, width and depth.

We think it’s especially well suited as a standalone store outside commercial premises – for anything from tools and stock to cleaning products. It is also great for tradespeople who want to keep a reasonably large amount of supplies at home or at a yard.

Equally, we have lots of private customers across New Zealand who buy or rent an 8ft container from us. They use them for literally anything!

CHECK OUT OUR OTHER CONTAINER SIZES!

If our 8ft container’s not quite right for you, we’ve got something else in stock that will be! We also rent and sell:

6ft Shipping Container – the dinkiest of our models is great for storing bikes and small collections of ‘stuff’.
10ft Shipping Container – this roomy storage space is ideal when a 20-footer is too large.
20ft Shipping Container – our most popular size is just right for most clients.
40ft Shipping Container – when maximum space is needed, this is the answer.
