Detailed DescriptionThe 45ft steel shipping container serves as a versatile asset for businesses requiring additional secure space. It is commonly used for on-site storage of materials, equipment, and inventory. The high-cube designation indicates that this unit offers increased internal height compared to standard containers, allowing for taller shelving or stacked pallets. The container’s structure relies on a robust steel frame and corrugated walls. This design provides inherent strength and rigidity, enabling the units to be stacked or lifted when empty or loaded. The double rear doors swing open fully, providing wide access for forklifts, pallet jacks, and loading equipment. Fabrication utilizes COR-TEN steel, a material that develops a protective oxide layer when exposed to the elements. This characteristic reduces the need for immediate repainting and extends the functional life of the unit when maintained properly. The plywood flooring is recessed within the steel frame and provides a smooth, durable surface for rolling loads. The red exterior finish acts as a base layer of protection and can be repainted to suit specific branding or environmental needs. Intended for stationary storage or intermodal transport, this unit is inspected for structural integrity, door functionality, and seal condition before dispatch.
