See full details
1

You describe your needs

Product type, condition, volume, delivery location, buy or hire: ten fields, two minutes. No account needed.

2

We look for suppliers for your project

With your consent, your request may be sent to up to 5 ContainerEU partner suppliers and to Quotbox, which may contact up to 5 more partners, subject to availability. The number of quotes and their timing depend on suppliers; confirm their terms in writing.

3

You receive up to 10 quotes

You may receive up to 10 quotes, depending on the container, delivery area and available suppliers. Suppliers decide whether and when to reply, so we cannot guarantee the number of replies or a fixed response time.

Why use ContainerEU?

Requesting quotes from five suppliers manually means making five calls, filling out five forms, and following up five times. We do it for you in one go.

Up to 10 quotes subject to supplier availability

One request may let you compare several offers, up to 10 depending on available suppliers. Compare total price and terms for the same need.

100% free, no commitment

You pay nothing. No commission on your purchase. You compare, you choose, or you walk away — it's up to you.

Professional suppliers

Before signing, check the company in its country's official business register. Ask for proof of insurance, references and delivery terms. Being a partner does not replace these checks.

Your data protected

With your consent, we send your request and contact details to no more than 5 ContainerEU suppliers and to Quotbox. Quotbox may send them to 5 more partners, making 10 professionals at most in total. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

Why use a comparison service rather than going straight to a supplier?

Make suppliers compete, without the legwork

Prices can vary between suppliers. Before choosing, compare several quotes for the same container and the same services.

Supplier accounts reviewed before activation

A supplier account is only activated after we have reviewed it manually. This does not replace your own checks: confirm the company's Companies House record, stock and insurance before paying.

Your contact details remain protected

With your consent, we send your request and contact details to no more than 5 ContainerEU suppliers and to Quotbox. Quotbox may send them to 5 more partners, making 10 professionals at most in total. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

It's free. Really.

No commission. No subscription. No admin fees. The service is funded by suppliers who win customers through us — not by you.

Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?+

Yes. The quote request service is free and carries no obligation for you. Partner suppliers fund the platform; the purchase or hire price and terms are agreed directly with the supplier.

How long does it take to receive my quotes?+

It depends on the suppliers: they decide whether and when to reply, so there is no fixed response time. Depending on the container, delivery area and available suppliers, you may receive up to 10 quotes.

Who are your supplier partners?+

Container sellers and hire companies whose accounts we have reviewed and activated manually. Before signing, check the company in its country's official business register and ask for proof of insurance, references and delivery terms: being a partner does not replace these checks.

How many suppliers receive my quote request?+

Ten at most: with your consent, your request goes to up to 5 ContainerEU partner suppliers and to Quotbox, which may pass it to up to 5 more partners. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

Can I request a quote for a custom-fitted container?+

Yes. In the 'intended use' field of the form, describe your project (office, accommodation, pool, snack bar, etc.). We direct your request to suppliers specialised in conversion.

Can I compare purchase and rental within the same quote request?+

No, you need to make two separate requests. Pricing works differently: some suppliers only sell, others only hire out.

What if no supplier responds?+

It can happen with very specific requests. If it does, widen your delivery area or adjust your request and send it again.

Is my quote binding?+

No. A quote is a commercial offer: it binds neither you nor the supplier until it is signed. You remain free to negotiate, refuse or accept.

Ready to request quotes?

Two minutes. Free. No obligation.
