Established in 2008, and now located in the Gatwick area, Freight Container Services (FCS) has 44 years of combined experience in the field of container storage rental. If you need to hire a shipping container, we invite you to our premises in Faygate to view our 20ft containers and our 40ft containers. We have site storage facilities, available to rent at the most competitive rates.
We also have containers for sale.
Individual areas covered by our company include:
Brighton | Burgess Hill | Crawley | Eastbourne | Gatwick | Horsham
FCS fulfils the needs of clients from the domestic, commercial and industrial sectors. Locally, we operate in Surrey and Sussex but we also have shipping containers for hire on a nationwide scale if needed. Rent a container in the size you want, when you need it, so that your plans always run to schedule.
Our container conversions give you a practical way to resolve your storage issues, and to free up valuable space inside properties across the region.
For further information, please contact us on 01403 915674, 07551 656263 or 07831 142401 (24 hours). We very much look forward to hearing from you.
We currently have access to stock at locations across the country, allowing us to supply 10ft containers, 20ft containers and 40ft containers. Other sizes may be available on request. A standard unit has a height of 8ft 6ins and a width of 8ft. A high-cube container has a standard height of 9ft 6ins but will come in the same spacious 8ft width as our more traditional units.
Whether you need containers for hire or containers for sale, we can help.
Freight containers and shipping containers now come fitted with a padlock protector box as standard on new units or as an option on used units. New units have a five-year wind and watertight guarantee, and used units come with 12 month-guarantees and the option to have these refurbished and repainted in any colour at a fair and discretionary additional cost.
If you would prefer to hire a shipping container or rent a container unit, FCS can offer short-term or long-term hire with depots at central locations across the entire country. Sizes begin at 10ft and go through to 40ft, and we can rent out over flexible periods. FCS also manages delivery and unloading.

Bought two containers (20ft & 40ft) from Norman & Ollie. Both containers very straight and barely marked. Had them both delivered within a week. Well priced and easy to buy.
