12ft Mini Shipping Container

Why Choose a 12ft Mini Shipping Container?

If you need secure storage but don’t have room for a 20ft or 40ft container, the 12ft mini is your answer. Built to the same rugged standards as ISO shipping containers, this compact unit delivers unmatched security and durability in a space-efficient design as a mini shipping container.

• Garden shed for tools, bikes, and outdoor furniture

• Job site storage for contractor tools and materials

• Business storage for retail stock, documents, or equipment

• Portable workshop or on-site office
