Description
The 40ft Used Standard Shipping Container is a standard 8′6″-tall dry container with corrugated steel walls, a wood floor and lockable double cargo doors at one end. At 40ft, this is roughly double the floor space of a 20ft unit, which usually makes it the most economical choice per square foot.
Typical uses include warehouse overflow, bulk inventory, equipment and vehicle storage, and large commercial or agricultural projects.
This is a used container that has served in transport. Expect cosmetic wear such as dents, scratches, surface rust, faded paint and possible repairs. The exact condition grade of the unit supplied (Wind & Watertight or Cargo Worthy) is confirmed before delivery.
