Whether you’re importing through Felixstowe, exporting to Europe, or need secure on-site storage, container transport offers significant advantages over conventional freight.
Security and Cargo Protection
ISO shipping containers are built to withstand harsh conditions at sea and on road. Their sealed steel construction provides excellent protection against theft, weather damage and contamination.
Cost Efficiency for Large Volumes
For businesses moving large quantities of goods, filling a 20ft or 40ft container is typically more cost-effective per unit than palletised freight. A single 40ft container can hold up to 28 tonnes of cargo.
20ft vs 40ft Containers
20ft containers offer approximately 33 cubic metres — ideal for heavy, dense cargo. 40ft containers provide approximately 67 cubic metres — better for lighter, bulkier goods.
Port-to-Door Simplicity
Container haulage providers like Interscan collect directly from UK ports — Felixstowe, Southampton, London Gateway, Tilbury — and deliver direct to your warehouse or site.
On-Site Storage Solutions
Containers can be placed on-site as temporary storage using hiab-equipped vehicles. Popular on construction sites, events and industrial yards.
Interscan Limited provides specialist container transport from all major UK ports. Our hiab-equipped vehicles can place containers directly on site.
