We answer all your questions about metal shipping containers in Tucson, AZ. From sizes to renting vs buying and quality.

The largest cargo ships can carry nearly 24,000 TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units) worth of metal shipping containers. These containers are made to withstand the harsh rigors of an ocean journey and thus are quite sturdy.

To further protect the cargo, these metal shipping containers are retired when they still have a lot of life left in them. Often, they are sold to businesses and individuals to use for storage, shipping, or even to be decked out as a portable office on construction sites and the like.

Interested in the benefits of metal shipping containers for your Tucson, Arizona business? Here are answers to some frequently asked questions.

Size Options of Metal Shipping Containers

Though the standard length of a shipping container is 20 feet, they come in a range of sizes. This is handy as business owners can choose the size that best fits their needs. For example, we carry containers in the following sizes:

• 6 foot
• 7 foot
• 8 foot
• 9 foot
• 10 foot
• 20 foot
• 30 foot
• 40 foot
• 45 foot

These various sizes make shipping containers quite versatile. A little one works perfectly as a small shed or storage facility in a place where space is a premium. You can even stack a couple on top of one another and add a set of stairs. Big metal shipping containers are great for large storage spaces, hauling equipment from one job site to another, or setting up a portable office.

Types of Shipping Containers in Tucson, Arizona?

As there are various sizes, there are also various types of containers that can meet different needs. The standard container is a 20-foot long 8 x 8.5-foot steel metal box with doors at one end.

High Cube

High cube containers are 9.5 feet tall, giving you an extra foot of space when you need to load tall equipment or tools for shipping or storage.

Open Top

If the high cube isn’t enough, you can also get open-top containers that allow you to take off the top completely. This is useful for crane loading or for transporting equipment that is too tall for the container.

Tunnel

If one access point for loading is good, wouldn’t two be better? Tunnel containers have doors at both ends to facilitate quick loading.

Insulated

Need to ship refrigerated items like food or medical supplies? Or maybe you have cargo that needs to stay warm. An insulated shipping container is your answer.
