Shipping Container Tunnel
Shipping container tunnel s, also known as double-end door containers, come with normal double doors on both sides of the container, which creates a tunnel when opened. This facilitates easy access and greatly increases the ease of loading and unloading cargo.
Tunnel containers are available in new 'one trip' condition and can be used to complete a variety of storage and conversion projects. Many customers utilize them to create small stores to store their items in a secure manner by dividing the space.
Easy Access
With a pair of standard double doors at both ends, tunnel shipping containers offer the most convenient access to items stored than a standard container that has only one set of doors. Self-storage companies love them because they can create different storage areas for various items. For example, boxes and tools are kept in one area while furniture and other equipment is kept in the other.
Tunnel containers are also ideal for companies that require storage or transport of large or bulky items e.g. automobile dealerships, construction firms and manufacturing companies. Due to their dual entry points, tunnel containers can be loaded and unloaded more quickly than conventional containers. This allows for increased productivity, reduce costs and avoid costly delays.
The dual access points make tunnel containers incredibly efficient for loading and unloading heavy items that are too large to fit through a single entrance e.g. Furniture, heavy machinery and automobiles. They are able to be used to accommodate forklift ramps and hand dolly ramps which are very useful in busy work environments.
Since they are made of weatherproof steel tunnel containers can be utilized in a variety of outdoor settings.

Two tunnel containers arranged end-to-end can keep dozens out of the rain and wind while they wait for their turn to be scanned or checked-in.
Recently, we converted two tunnel containers into a cozy gift shop for an historic railway site.

Easy Storage

This helps you manage inventory and reduces time when loading or unloading.

This is ideal for companies that require the ability to rotate their stock without the hassle of unloading from both ends. Tunnel containers are also utilized by a lot of our customers as 'passages' at music events and festivals that help funnel crowds through a certain gap or space.

Shipping containers are made from corrosion-resistant Corten Steel, which means they can be used in harsh environments and frequent transport. They can also withstand strong winds, and if they're covered, will shield your possessions from snow, rain and dust.
The insulated walls and roof of the tunnels for shipping containers help protect the stored goods as well as keeping temperatures stable. This is particularly crucial for perishable items or chemicals that could be affected negatively by extremes in temperature. Shipping containers are able to keep dust and moisture out which can significantly increase the longevity of the stored items.
Easy Loading and Unloading
It is important to stack cargo vertically inside a shipping tunnel, and then secure it with straps or load bars. It is important to stack the containers vertically so they won't shift and cause damage when the containers are moved by railway or sea. It is a good idea to place heavier items at the bottom of container and lighter items at the top. Keep flammables away from other items, and any items that could be contaminated with liquids.
Double doors at both ends of a tunnel container allows easier access to items located in the middle, where a standard shipping container may be difficult. Tunnel containers are ideal to store inventory for both personal and commercial use. They are also used by many self-storage companies that divide the containers in half to create two smaller stores, which gives them access from both sides (where conventional containers could only have one entry point).
In addition to the dual door access tunnel containers can be modified as easily as other kinds of shipping container. This means you can add lighting and even windows, according to your requirements. They can also be converted into offices, workshops or retail spaces.
