Welcome Storage Shelter Solutions

Storage Shelter Solutions container canopies give you fast, flexible shelter by using the shipping containers you already have in place. Our canopy systems are quick to install, engineered for tough UK weather and, in many cases, do not require complex planning or foundations.
Mounted onto standard 20ft or 40ft shipping containers, they create a strong, practical roof system that’s trusted by businesses across construction, infrastructure, logistics, agriculture and industry.
If you’re battling the elements or running out of usable space, you’re not alone. Many sites face issues such as:
The need for quick, adaptable, weather-proof space has never been greater – and container canopies are one of the simplest ways to achieve it.
Our container shelters (canopies) are a cost-effective and flexible way to create additional storage or a covered workspace. Designed to fit between two standard shipping containers, these structures provide a robust, weather-resistant environment.
Whether you need to store heavy machinery, protect inventory from the elements, or establish a temporary workshop, our container canopies are built to withstand the toughest industrial conditions. Each unit features heavy-duty double-galvanized steel frames and fire-retardant PVC fabric covers, ensuring maximum durability and long-term protection for your assets. Our solutions are designed for easy installation and relocation, making them ideal for businesses, farms, and industrial sites across the UK that require versatile and reliable infrastructure.

Whether you are using them for temporary workshops or permanent storage sites, these shelters offer a cost-effective alternative to traditional buildings without compromising on safety or reliability.

A breakdown of how our container canopies are currently supporting different industrial and agricultural projects.
In many situations, Storage Shelter Solutions container canopies are treated differently from permanent buildings and may not require full planning permission, which is one of the reasons they’re so attractive for fast, flexible covered space. However, the rules depend on your location, how long the shelter will be in place and what it will be used for.
We always advise customers to check with their local planning authority before installation. Our team can provide outline drawings, specifications and dimensions for your chosen container canopy to support any planning enquiries and help you decide on the most practical approach for your site.
Yes. If you don’t already have containers on site, Storage Shelter Solutions can help source and supply suitable 20ft or 40ft shipping containers as part of your project. We’ll advise on the quantity, grade and configuration you need so they provide a solid base for the canopy and work with your access and layout.
If you already own containers, we’ll design the container canopy around your existing set-up, checking spacing, heights and anchoring points to make sure the finished shelter is safe, stable and efficient to use.
Once the shipping containers are correctly positioned and the site is ready, most Storage Shelter Solutions container canopies can be installed in a relatively short time frame, often within a few days depending on size and complexity. This is significantly quicker than constructing a traditional building, which can take weeks or months.
During the quotation stage we’ll give you an estimated installation schedule and discuss any access, lifting or health and safety requirements, so you can plan other site activities around the build with minimal disruption.
Yes – our container canopies are designed to be fully relocatable. The structure can be dismantled, transported and re-erected on another part of your yard or on a completely different site, making them ideal for contractors, hire companies and businesses that regularly change location.
Because the shelter is mounted to standard shipping containers, once the fixings are removed you simply move the containers and reinstall the canopy. This flexibility is one of the key reasons customers choose Storage Shelter Solutions over permanent, fixed buildings.
Absolutely. At Storage Shelter Solutions, we tailor each container canopy to the specific needs of your site, project and industry. We can adjust span width, length and clear height, and advise on the best configuration for HGV access, forklift routes, plant movement and storage requirements.
You can also choose from a range of options such as end walls, partial sidewalls, personnel doors, roller doors, gutters, lighting and branding to create anything from a simple open shelter to a more enclosed, weather-tight workspace. Our aim is to deliver a container canopy that feels like it was purpose-built for your operation.
Container canopies from Storage Shelter Solutions are used across the UK wherever businesses need extra covered space quickly. Typical applications include dry storage for plant and equipment, palletised goods, bulk materials, vehicles and machinery, as well as covered loading bays, cross-docking areas and on-site workshops.
They’re also widely used for waste and recycling zones, aggregate handling, fabrication and maintenance areas, and staff welfare or breakout spaces. If you already have shipping containers on site, we can usually design a canopy that transforms the space between them into a highly practical, weatherproof work area.
Maintenance requirements for Storage Shelter Solutions container canopies are generally low, but a simple routine helps maximise lifespan and performance. We recommend periodic visual checks of all fixings, brackets and tensioning systems, especially after severe weather, to ensure everything remains secure and correctly aligned.
Keeping the roof and any gutters free from debris, and avoiding contact with sharp edges or abrasive materials, will help protect the cover and steelwork. Our team will provide basic maintenance guidance specific to your chosen canopy, and we’re always available if you need advice or replacement components in the future.
