With basic maintenance, a Corten steel shipping container will typically last 25 years or more. They are engineered to survive ocean voyages in the harshest conditions on earth, so on dry land they are extremely durable. We recommend inspecting the exterior annually and repainting any surface rust with a rust-inhibiting primer.
Standard shipping containers are designed to be stacked up to 9 high when empty. For on-site stacking we recommend a maximum of 2β3 units. If you plan to stack containers, consult a structural engineer to ensure the ground bearing capacity and container condition are suitable. We can supply stackable units and advise on the best approach for your specific project.
All our containers are cleaned and prepared before sale. Containers that previously carried hazardous or strongly odorous cargo are rejected from our supply chain. For added peace of mind, we can provide a certificate of cleanliness on request.
