A 40ft new shipping container w/ doors on both ends — also called a 40-foot double-door conex box or tunnel container — is a factory-fresh steel unit you own outright with cargo doors at both ends for maximum loading flexibility on large-scale storage and shipping operations. Dual-end access speeds inventory turnover and simplifies workflow in tight yards.
What makes this 40ft unit special? Constructed from durable Corten steel with marine-grade plywood flooring, this one-trip container is wind and watertight, stackable, and built to ISO standards. Heavy-duty locking mechanisms on both door sets ensure security from either end.
Ideal for warehousing, freight staging, equipment storage, modular projects requiring dual-end entry, and logistics operations where accessibility drives efficiency. The double-door configuration at 40ft length is the defining advantage for high-volume operations. Units ship in stock for nationwide delivery, giving you secure steel storage on a timeline that matches project deadlines without waiting on custom lead times.
