Further Education College Transforms Campus Storage with Modern Flat Pack Containers


[UXBRIDGE, AUGUST 2025] – A leading Further Education College has taken a big step toward modernising its campus storage solutions by replacing an old, worn-out shipping container with a sleek, space-efficient alternative. The college aimed to create a fresh, contemporary look as part of its area redesign, while maximising usable space.

The solution? Two of our 3m XL Flat Pack Containers combined with a Side Link Kit, creating an impressive 3m x 4.2m open-plan storage space. This configuration simply isn’t possible with traditional shipping containers, making our modular flat pack system the perfect choice.

Not only do these flat pack storage units deliver a modern aesthetic with clean lines and a shiny new finish, but they’re also practical and easy to install. Our team used self-levelling feet—standard with every build—to overcome uneven ground and guarantee stability. With only the college caretaker available on-site, the college relied on our professional team to complete the installation quickly and efficiently, removing any stress from the process.

The result? A happy customer who now enjoys a secure, smart, and spacious storage solution. The client was so impressed with the build quality and functionality that they are already considering our integrated shelving system for further optimisation.

“The difference is night and day compared to the old container. The space feels bigger, brighter, and much more professional. We couldn’t be happier,” said the college representative.

This project highlights how flat pack containers are revolutionising storage solutions for education providers, offering flexibility, durability, and a premium finish that enhances any campus environment.
