Self-Storage Containers UK | Rowlinson Packaging Ltd
What Are Timber Self-Storage Containers and Who Uses Them?
Rowlinson Packaging Ltd provides durable timber self-storage containers designed for anyone needing secure, long-term storage outside of the home. Whether you want to store garden equipment, tools, machinery or seasonal items, our timber containers provide a safe and versatile solution. Popular with small businesses, tradespeople and homeowners with outdoor storage needs, our containers are built to last and trusted across the UK for their strength and reliability.


Why Choose Timber for Self-Storage?
How Do Timber Storage Containers Keep My Belongings Safe and Durable?
Our wooden storage containers are built from 18mm reinforced plywood with strong timber frames, providing a solid foundation for heavy or awkward items. Each container includes timber forklift runners to make moving them safe and straightforward. They are fully collapsible for on-site assembly or storage when not in use, saving space and making them ideal for gardens, workshops and commercial yards.
Each container features 20–30 antiluce klimps, which strengthen the structure and ensure a tight seal to protect your items from dust, damp, and outdoor conditions. All containers are precision-built at our Cheshire facility using automated and semi-automated systems, ensuring consistent quality with every order.


How Do Timber Containers Offer Easy Access and Practical Storage?
Our containers are designed for ease of use and efficiency. Containers fitted with bolted access doors allow quick access to your items, even when stacked. This makes them ideal for gardens, garages, workshops or small business storage yards.
The stackable design, combined with forklift runners, maximises storage space while maintaining safety. These practical features make our containers suitable for storing everything from lawn mowers and tools to small machinery and equipment.
