40ft Refurbished Shipping Container
The 40ft Refurbished Shipping Container delivers the clean look and presentation of a new container alongside the structural reliability of a wind and watertight pre-owned unit—at a significantly lower cost. Each container undergoes a comprehensive refurbishment process in our depot to eliminate ocean shipping line branding, treat exterior surface wear, and apply a fresh, protective coat of marine-grade industrial paint.
Built on a heavy-duty Corten steel frame, these containers are thoroughly inspected for structural integrity. Any compromised areas are professionally patched, door hinges and locking bars are serviced for smooth operation, and door gaskets are checked to ensure a 100% weather-tight seal. Featuring solid 28mm marine plywood flooring, a refurbished 40ft container is the ideal choice for businesses seeking presentable site storage, pop-up commercial spaces, workshops, or farm storage that enhances site appearance.
