The shaded area is the door opening: it is what determines what fits, not the volume. It loses little in width — 2.340 m against 2.352 m inside — but more than ten centimetres in height, 2.278 m against 2.385 m. A load that fits within the volume but exceeds the lintel remains on the quay. Scale drawing, traced over the dimensions in the table below.

The ISO 668 rating ceiling is not the capacity of the unit offered. Do not calculate a payload by subtracting the indicative tare from that ceiling. Obtain the actual unit's plate and specification for its tare, maximum gross mass and permitted payload, and confirm its current condition before loading or lifting.

Is this container right for your project?

Standard 20ft one-trip shipping container (Dry, ISO 22G1): it has made a single loaded journey since manufacture. Length 6.06 m, width 2.44 m, height 2.59 m.

Storage for equipment and stock

Just over 6 m long, this size can suit furniture, site tools or business stock. Measure what you need to store and allow room for access. Confirm the required capacity, delivery access and condition.

A standard design

Corrugated steel walls, doors at one end and a timber floor. Confirm the actual unit's condition, lifting points and assessed capacity before lifting or stacking it; the original container design does not establish the safety of a damaged or altered unit.

One loaded journey

A one-trip container has made one loaded journey since manufacture. Handling marks may be present. Confirm the structure, paintwork, floor and transport history of the actual unit from recent photos and its condition report.

20ft container delivery: access and offloading

Enquire about delivery to England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Coverage, lead time, transport and offloading charges depend on the postcode and site assessment. Request delivered price and confirm the full amount before agreeing to buy. Islands, remote locations and Northern Ireland may require separate transport arrangements.

Allow for a footprint of about 6.06 × 2.44 m, door opening and the proposed vehicle and lifting equipment. Ask the delivery team to assess gate width, turning space, overhead obstructions, ground bearing capacity and outrigger space. Confirm the actual unit weight and lifting points; access and crane reach cannot be approved from container dimensions alone.

Questions about the 20ft one-trip container

What is the price of a 20ft one-trip container?
Our sale price is £1,767.60 incl. VAT per container (£1,473 excl. VAT; VAT rate 20 %). Delivery and offloading are extra, depending on your postcode, lorry access and unloading method. Optional repainting or alterations are quoted separately. Request the full delivered total before any order.
Where do you deliver, and how much does delivery cost?
You can enquire about delivery to England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland; availability must be confirmed for your postcode. Delivery and unloading costs depend on your postcode, lorry access and unloading method. Ask for a written quotation including applicable VAT, delivery, offloading and any mandatory charges after access and the planned location have been checked. Remote locations, islands and Northern Ireland may require a separate transport arrangement.
What needs to be prepared on site?
Agree load-bearing ground, foundations or supports, vehicle access and the unloading plan with the supplier and a competent site professional. Mention overhead power lines, narrow gates, slopes and buried services. A generic footprint is not a foundation design or lift plan.
Can I see the container before confirming?
Request recent photos and, where possible, an inspection of the proposed unit before agreeing to buy. For a used container, they show the real condition of the doors, floor and walls.
What colours are available?
Colour preferences shown are gentian blue (RAL 5010), reseda green (RAL 6011), light grey (RAL 7035), anthracite grey (RAL 7016). Select a preference to include it in your enquiry. Actual availability and any repainting charge must be confirmed in the quotation.
One-trip or new: what is the difference?
UK suppliers commonly use ‘new’ to describe one-trip containers. We label that condition explicitly: the unit has travelled from manufacture and may have handling marks. It is different from a genuinely never-used unit. Ask for the actual unit's build and transport history and condition report.
