ABOUT US

We are a small, family-owned business based in the UK, specialising in the sale of shipping containers. Our journey began in 2020, when we started by supplying used, non-operational reefer containers. Since then, we have remained committed to offering our customers the best possible balance of cost and quality in every product and service we provide.

We take great pride in offering a personalised and attentive service to each of our customers. For us, everything centres on customer satisfaction, ensuring a positive experience, providing the highest level of service, and delivering an efficient sales process from start to finish. Our core values include integrity, respect, quality, and transparency, all of which help us build lasting relationships and trust with our customers and stakeholders, and have supported our continued growth.

We often say that we are small enough to genuinely care about every single customer, regardless of the quantity purchased, yet experienced and well-connected enough to offer the right container solution at competitive prices. By sourcing directly, we are able to pass on this value to our clients.

We are also recognised for making the container purchasing process as straightforward as possible. We understand that, particularly for first-time buyers, there can be many questions,  from site suitability and precise placement, to ground preparation and power requirements for reefer units.

Our approach is simple and structured. We begin by identifying the most suitable solution for your specific needs, followed by a clear and comprehensive quotation outlining all relevant details. We then coordinate a smooth and efficient delivery process, providing guidance on site access and ground preparation. Our support continues after delivery, ensuring a seamless and reassuring experience throughout.

 

We operate out of more than 9 partner depots strategically positioned across the UK and have local reliable haulier partnerships spread nationwide, to guarantee a cost-effective and premium service experience. Wherever you are located in the UK, we can supply you with the right shipping containers.

 

We work with Haulers fully qualified CPC holders, NPORS-certified crane operators, and are fully equipped with PPE, crane test certificates, chain test certificates, risk assessments and method statements.

 

We challenge ourselves to grow every day, listening to our customer's reviews and the team. 


For us, a shipping container can be the best sustainable solution to many problems. We are always happy to help our customers with their projects and demands.

OUR STORY

The year was 2020 and the world stopped: a global pandemic started. With many companies closing their doors, ARCH CONTAINERS emerged as a form of resilience and innovation. The founders,  Leticia and Giovan with their respective: marketing, business administration, and engineering backgrounds, were engaged in the frozen food industry in London at the moment. As the lockdown was announced combined with a few days off work, they found themselves revaluating their professional paths and priorities. A major decision was then made: to leave their former company and aim for a new path. That's when an opportunity was presented: to start a shipping container sales company in the UK, back there,  as a partnership. To combine Leticia's expertise area and Giovan's, alongside their frozen food experience,  the obvious choice was to start with reefer containers.  

From day one, we’ve been driven by a commitment to providing exceptional, customer-focused service.  We’ve been true to our values since then,  treating our customers and stakeholders with respect, and giving them our best, always. We truly believe that the customer is the company’s heart and customer satisfaction plays a vital role. Today, with more than 9 partner depots strategically positioned nationwide and dozens of trusted haulage partners, we have been trading with integrity, committed to core values, and providing a simplified container purchase experience.
