Frequently Asked Questions
What are the common uses of shipping containers?
Shipping containers are used for a wide variety of purposes beyond transport. They serve as secure storage units for businesses and households, and they’re popular in farming, mining and remote locations due to their portability and durability. Their modular design also makes them ideal for stacking or arranging into larger complexes, such as multi-container buildings or workshops.
How should I prepare the site for a shipping container?
A solid, level surface is essential for placing a shipping container. Gravel, compacted dirt, concrete slabs or treated timber beams can all serve as a suitable foundation. This helps prevent water pooling, sinking or container shifting over time. Good site access is also important for delivery trucks. If the ground is uneven or the area is hard to reach, additional preparation may be required. Checking for overhead obstructions like power lines and ensuring there’s enough space to maneuver the container is also advised.
What does an empty shipping container weigh?
An empty 20-foot shipping container weighs around 2,200–2,400kg, while a 40-foot container weighs approximately 3,800–4,200kg. These weights are important to know for transport logistics, especially if you’re moving the container yourself. Always check the container’s tare weight, which is clearly marked on the container doors, and ensure your transport method is rated for the load.
