Full Description

This 40ft double door shipping container — sometimes called a tunnel container — has cargo doors on both ends instead of just one, so goods can be loaded and unloaded from either end, or both at once. That makes it easier to sort or access cargo without unloading the whole container, and it's a practical choice for tight jobsites where you need entry from two directions, for drive-through or walk-through use, or for roll-in/roll-out loading of large cargo. Beyond storage and transport, double door units are also used as on-site passageways between two areas. Construction is corrosion-resistant Corten steel, with welded tie-down points on both the upper and lower rails, ten air vents for airflow, a lock box for added security, and a heavy-duty marine-grade plywood floor. Both sets of doors are lockable. The unit is ISO certified and CSC plated, so it's rated for transport by rail, sea, and road. Externally the container measures 40ft long x 8ft wide x 8ft 6in tall; internally it's about 39ft 5in x 7ft 8in x 7ft 10in, with roughly 2,350 cubic feet of usable volume. Door openings measure about 7ft 8in wide x 7ft 6in tall. Tare weight is approximately 8,380 lbs, with a maximum payload around 57,759 lbs and a maximum gross weight of about 66,139 lbs. This container is available in New and Used condition. New units carry a 10-year structural warranty and a 10-year no-leak warranty; Used Cargo Worthy units carry a 5-year structural warranty and a 5-year no-leak warranty. If you plan to use the container for international export, you'll need a CSC survey — loaded containers can't be relocated, so plan to have the survey completed before the container is loaded.

Can I write this purchase off as a business expense?
