Used 20ft Conex Shipping / Storage Container – Yellow/Gold

This is a used 20ft dry container in a yellow finish, sold on a wind and watertight basis. That grade is about one thing: keeping the weather out. It suits storage on the ground at your own site - tools, stock, machinery, garden or farm equipment - rather than further use at sea. What the grade does and does not promise is set out in our wind and watertight guide.

What you are buying

• Used 20ft steel dry container, yellow exterior
• Wind and watertight: doors, roof and walls keep rain and snow out
• Lockable double doors at one end
• Steel walls, roof and doors throughout
• Surface wear from its working life, which does not affect weather-tightness

Size

A 20ft container measures 6,058 mm long, 2,438 mm wide and 2,591 mm high on the outside and holds roughly 33 m³. Internal measurements vary a little between builders; the full table is on the 20ft container page.

When it arrives

Used containers differ from unit to unit, so check three things when it is set down: that both doors close and lock cleanly on their seals, that the floor is sound underfoot, and that no daylight shows through the roof or walls with the doors shut.

Place it on firm, level ground - sleepers or concrete pads under the corners are enough for storage (see container foundations) - and make sure a delivery vehicle can reach the spot. Your quotation gives the delivered price for your address.
