A standardised height of 8ft 6 inches (9ft 6 inches for 20ft cube containers), a 33 cubic metre (cbm) capacity (25-28cbm of usable space), heavy-duty marine ply wooden flooring, a wind and water-tight construction, double-door access, a valid CSC (Container Safety Convention) plate. We also offer the option to buy or hire used 20ft shipping containers. Typically, these are aged 9-14 years old, with an approximate life expectancy of 25 years. They may have a few small dents or rust patches, but they all have a CSC plate or ACEP (Approved Continuous Examination Programme) sticker (maximum validity of 12 months) and are guaranteed to be suitable for shipment. Sold on a ‘next from the stack’ basis, our second-hand 20ft shipping containers come in their original livery. It isn’t possible to choose a specific colour, but if you wish, they can be painted externally.
