Westlake Containers
We purchase your existing containers and leave them on your site. You keep managing them, keep your customers, and receive a management fee.
What do you actually buy?
We purchase containers as they are. They stay where they are, with the tenants in situ.
How much do you pay?
We aim to pay fair market value for the containers, varying based on condition.
How much is the management fee?
The management fee is often around 25%, but depends on the deal structure.
How long does the process take?
We just need to agree terms. That requires basic site info and occupancy levels. We can typically complete deals within days. We don't require site visits or lengthy assessments.
What changes day to day?
Nothing. You run the site, manage the containers, deal with your customers. Same as before.
Does this create new obligations for me?
You can continue running your site as you wish. We don't seek to change anything about how you run your site.
What happens if a tenant leaves?
If a tenant leaves a container that we own, you handle new tenant onboarding as usual. No additional obligations apply.
Why would I take this offer?
Common reasons are to de-risk, release equity to fund expenses and business expansion, or to acquire more containers.
How does payment work?
Once we've agreed terms, we send a short agreement to sign electronically. Payment is made via bank transfer after signing.
How many containers are you looking to buy?
We typically acquire a minority share of containers on each site, with a maximum of around 30%. Across the UK, we're looking to buy hundreds of containers in 2026.
We also place our own containers on sites with spare capacity. Contact us.
