Educational Container Uses

Learning Space Expansion

One of the most exciting possibilities for educational settings is using shipping containers to expand learning spaces. Shipping containers can be converted into fully functional, insulated rooms, workshops, or laboratories. Whether you need additional space for temporary overflow during high enrollment periods or other works, or long-term storage space, converted shipping containers can offer a superb solution.

Workshops and Labs

For universities, colleges and schools offering hands-on courses in subjects like engineering, art, or science, containers can be modified into specialised workshops or laboratories. They can be outfitted with electricity, ventilation, and equipment tailored to meet the needs of different subjects. This creates an adaptable learning environment without the expense and time required for traditional construction.

Pop-Up Offices or Study Areas

Colleges and universities often require additional office space for administrators, visiting professors, or temporary staff. Our containers can be customised to function as pop-up offices, providing a quiet, functional workspace that can be placed anywhere on campus. Similarly, they can serve as pop-up study areas or group workspaces, offering students extra space for collaborative learning or exam preparation.

Secure Storage

Educational institutions often require secure storage for a wide variety of items, from chairs, tables, and sports equipment to maintenance tools and classroom supplies. Shipping containers provide weatherproof and tamper-proof storage spaces that can be positioned on school grounds for easy access.

What our Users & Customers Say

Set Director, ITV

Excellent service all round! ST helped us with tricky props for our ITV drama and sourced, costed and delivered these promptly, expertly and within budget. The shipping containers for a large warehouse set were carefully moved and placed exactly as required for filming.

We've now got 6 containers on our site from ST Containers. They have been wonderful as our raw materials inbound has increased. We are able to store products onsite, ready to use. Our needs will grow and shrink and ST Containers have been fast, responsive and excellent value.

Mr Charnwood

We needed a container to house our possessions during a large extension on our property and the team at ST Containers helped us work out which size to go for and also allay any fears about damp / mould as the container is fully vented and feels brand new.

Worthing Rugby Club

ST Containers and Sussex Transport have been wonderful partners for us in terms of onsite storage for the club. Our 30' container (which was adapted for us to have doors on both ends) is just perfect. Once full we'll definitely be in contact for another.
