Can't fault them.

Quick response for everything from getting me a price to getting it delivered.

The driver was spot on and made sure we was happy with the positioning before leaving.

Excellent company - great service

We were messed around by another supplier and so after weeks of waiting to no avail we got a refund and went to these guys. Their communication was excellent and within days we had our container delivered. Container in excellent condition, the delivery driver was very helpful and arrived on time, and the total price was the cheapest we could fine. Highly recommended.

Great customer service from start to…

Great customer service from start to finish. Prompt response from any query, order and delivery date confirmed immediately and then a time slot given on the delivery date making the purchase very smooth.
