Used 20Ft Storage Shipping Container

Product Overview

This used 20-foot storage shipping container offers a practical solution for secure on-site storage requirements. Constructed from weathering steel (Corten steel), this container has been retired from active shipping service after approximately 15-20 years of use.

It remains fully weatherproof with functioning doors and flooring, making it suitable for static storage applications across commercial and industrial settings. The container is classified under ISO code 22G1 as a general-purpose dry container.

Key Features

• Weather-Resistant Steel Construction: Constructed with corrugated weathering steel for enhanced structural rigidity.
• Standardized ISO Dimensions: Compliant with global shipping specifications.
• Double-Door Access: Features reinforced locking mechanisms, including twist locks and padlock loops.
• Forklift Pockets: Located at the base for ease of handling and repositioning.
• Stackable Design: Capable of supporting multiple containers when properly positioned.
• Ventilation Ports: Positioned to reduce condensation buildup for humidity-sensitive contents.

Detailed Description

The used 20ft shipping container represents a durable and adaptable storage asset for businesses requiring additional secure space. Manufactured from specially hardened weather-resistant steel, these containers were originally designed to withstand harsh maritime environments during international cargo transport.

The corrugated wall construction provides significant structural integrity, allowing the container to maintain its form even under challenging conditions.

This container has been removed from active shipping service but retains its fundamental weatherproof qualities. It is wind and water-resistant (WWT certified), ensuring contents remain protected from environmental elements during outdoor storage.

The double doors at one end open to provide full-width access to the interior space, while the integrated locking mechanisms offer security against unauthorized entry.

The container’s design includes corner castings that enable secure lifting by crane or handling by forklift via the integrated pockets at the base. These features facilitate easy positioning at your preferred location, whether for temporary project sites or permanent installation.

As a used unit, this container displays typical cosmetic wear including surface scuffs, minor dents, and paint variations consistent with prior service history. These characteristics do not compromise the structural integrity or weather resistance of the unit. The container floor remains functional and the doors operate properly.
