40ft General Purpose Shipping Container — New (One Trip)

Forty feet of as-new container. The cheapest storage volume per dollar we sell, provided your site can take the length and the truck can get in.

The volume argument

Two 20ft containers cost considerably more than one 40ft and give you roughly the same internal volume. If you have the room, the 40ft is simply better value — one delivery, one footprint, one set of doors to secure.

The catch is access. A 40ft on a trailer needs a long, straight run and a lot of swing room. Tight suburban streets, sloping driveways and gated rural properties frequently cannot take one. This is the number one reason a 40ft delivery fails, and it is entirely preventable by talking it through first.

One trip condition

Built, loaded once, sailed here, unpacked. Paintwork largely intact, clean plywood floor, soft seals, free-moving locking gear. Some handling marks are normal.

Who buys them

Businesses consolidating warehouse overflow. Farms storing hay, feed and machinery. Builders running multi-stage projects. Anyone converting — the 40ft is the standard starting shell for accommodation, workshop and office builds.

Before you order

Measure your access, check overhead clearance, and think about where the doors need to face. A 40ft is very hard to reposition once it is down. We will go through all of it with you when you request a quote.

Before ordering a new 40ft shipping container, send us your site address and a photo of the approach. Access decides this purchase more often than price does.
