10ft Used Cut Down Container – Unit 2 (Stock Ref 2998)
This 10ft used cut down container is the second unit in stock, fabricated from an ex-shipping line container to a compact 10ft footprint. A fabricated rear panel and corner posts restore full structural integrity after cutting, so the finished unit carries the same Cor-Ten steel strength as the original shell — just at the size you need. It suits tight-access sites where a full-size unit won’t fit, and compact garden or yard storage.
What Cutting Down Involves
A standard 40ft container converts into shorter units this way, keeping the cost well under a purpose-built container of the same size. This unit is prepared and re-sprayed inside and out before delivery, arriving clean and weatherproof.
Key Features
- Cor-Ten weathering steel construction
- 28mm marine plywood floor on steel cross-members
- Double cargo doors with locking bars
- Factory-fitted lockbox for padlock security
- Forklift pockets for positioning
- Vents to reduce condensation
