Key features of the 10ft cut down used shipping container
Cut to size from ex-shipping line containers
Every unit starts as a full-size ISO 40ft ex-shipping line container. We cut it down to your required size. As a result, you get a structurally sound steel container at a fraction of the cost of a new unit.
Fabricated rear panel and corner posts
After cutting, we fabricate and weld a new rear panel and corner posts onto the open end. Therefore, the cut-down container is fully enclosed, secure, and weatherproof from all sides.
Prepared and re-sprayed inside and out
Every unit is prepared and re-sprayed in dark green inside and out before sale. Furthermore, this gives the container a clean, professional finish that protects the steel from corrosion and weathering.
Wind and watertight construction
Every unit is sold wind and watertight. The sealed doors and fabricated rear panel keep rain, wind, and moisture out. Moreover, this ensures your stored goods stay dry and protected in all outdoor conditions.
Fitted lockbox
Every unit comes with a lockbox already fitted to the doors. As a result, you can add your own padlock immediately on delivery for secure storage from day one.
Hiab delivery available
We offer delivery with a hiab unload for convenient placement on your site. Therefore, no additional crane or lifting equipment is required on delivery day anywhere across Australia.
Applications for the 10ft cut down used shipping container
Construction site storage
The compact footprint fits on tight construction sites where a full-size container would not. Furthermore, the lockbox and double doors protect tools and materials against theft overnight and on weekends.
Agricultural and farm storage
The dark green finish blends into rural and agricultural environments. Use it to store chemicals, feed, seed, and small machinery on farms and properties. Moreover, the wind and watertight seal protects goods from moisture damage year-round.
Retail and commercial storage
Businesses use cut-down containers for compact, secure overflow storage. The re-sprayed finish looks clean and professional. Additionally, the small footprint suits retail precincts and commercial yards where space is limited.
Residential and home storage
Homeowners use the 8ft and 10ft cut-down units for garden storage, tools, and equipment. The compact size fits most residential yards. As a result, it is a cost-effective alternative to a garden shed or permanent structure.
Events and temporary storage
The small footprint and easy deliverability make cut-down containers ideal for events, markets, and temporary storage needs. They can be delivered, used, and collected with minimal disruption to the site.
Workshop and trade storage
Tradies and small workshop operators use cut-down containers for organised storage of tools and equipment. Explore our modified containers if you need additional fitout such as shelving, lighting, or power.
