  #### FAQs about using shipping containers in Crosby

#### Is planning permission required for containers?

Shipping containers are considered temporary structures and typically do not require planning permission. However, always confirm with the local planning authority in Crosby if you have any concerns. For further guidance, see [planning permission advice for Merseyside](https://shippingcontainersofliverpool.co.uk/areas-served/merseyside/info/planning-permission).

#### Is there a difference between new and used containers?

New or single-trip containers arrive directly from the manufacturer, often in pristine condition. Used containers have previously served with shipping lines and are thoroughly checked for wind and watertightness, offering cost-effective storage. Both types are available with full certification and security features.

#### Are you able to provide container shipping overseas?

We can refer you to international shipping agents for container export, but we do not handle overseas shipping ourselves. For local sales, hire, or conversions, see our full range of services.
