Frequently asked questions · Edinburgh
How much does a delivered container in Edinburgh cost?
Add the container, transport, unloading and extras. Indicative budgets do not replace a quote: the exact postcode and chosen depot determine the delivered cost.
Can I collect the container myself?
If the seller allows it and confirms a collection depot. Check suitable transport, loading and opening hours before booking.
What is the difference between a crane truck and a flatbed?
A crane truck may place the container on the ground within its reach and subject to access. Flatbed unloading must be arranged separately. Specify these services in your quote.
How do I choose between used and one trip?
Compare photos of the actual container, watertightness, floor, doors and required documents. Base the choice on use and actual condition, not just the sales label.
Does rental include delivery and collection?
Not necessarily. Request a total for your planned duration including delivery, placement, hire, collection and any deposit, with extension terms.
