Our Painting Process (Built to Last)

You pick a colour. Tell us the RAL code or codes if you have multiple colour requirements

We pick a good donor box. We choose a container that’s suitable for painting and meets your size/condition needs.

We paint it—full coverage. Prepped, and sprayed for 100% coverage, including doors and details.

We deliver. Once cured and quality-checked, we arrange delivery to your site. Timescale: typically 2–8 weeks (depends on demand, location and container condition). 

Built for UK weather and regular handling.

Works for new or used containers.

Note: Black and white may cost a little more due to the extra coats needed for solid, even coverage.
