Construction & Durability
Structurally the 20ft steel shipping container is factory-fresh one-trip steel with a rigid box frame: two rails, two headers, four posts, eight castings. Load paths run through the corners, so the walls stay unstressed and the doors keep their seal for the life of the unit.
Delivery & Site Preparation
Delivery is by tilt-bed truck: the bed angles up and the 20ft steel shipping container slides off onto your ground — no crane, no second lift. Allow about 75ft of clear, straight approach so the bed can tilt and slide the unit off. Firm, level ground matters more than anything else; gravel or concrete piers under the four corners will keep the doors swinging true.
