Container Hire Services Ltd was established in the UK in 2007. The company's UK office is in Glasgow, with stock held in depots across the country. Nationwide coverage is provided through a network of partners. Graeme Simpson serves as Managing Director, and John Ballantyne is Depot Manager. The company supplies containers, including standard, high cube, side opening, tri-door, tunnel containers, COSHH stores, and water supply units.

Portable accommodation units offered comprise offices, canteens, drying rooms, and toilet facilities. Static and mobile welfare units are also provided. Self storage is available in Glasgow. Container Hire Services Ltd is part of the CHS Container Group, which has 14 offices and over 300 employees worldwide. CHS Container Handel GmbH was founded in 1978 in Bremen.

In Glasgow, Container Hire Services Ltd has built a reputation for supplying new and reconditioned shipping containers, a service that reviewers repeatedly praise for its efficiency and straightforward pricing. A number of customers describe the ordering process as simple from the initial enquiry through to final delivery, with clear communication at each stage. The containers themselves are frequently noted as clean, dry and secure, whether hired for a house move or bought outright for long-term storage.

Delivery is a particular point of praise: drivers are described as skilled and precise, placing units exactly where required, even in awkward spots. Named staff members Jacob, Graeme and John are singled out for their helpfulness and professionalism, with one reviewer crediting John and his team for handling everything from quotation to installation without fuss.

Reviewers also highlight transparent costing and a willingness to accommodate repeat business, with some returning for multiple containers over several years. The hire periods are flexible, allowing customers to manage phased moves or ongoing storage needs with ease. A recurring theme is the personal follow-up after delivery, which customers describe as an unusual and welcome standard of care. The company is often described as a go-to provider for temporary or permanent container solutions.
