IICL Quality – what does it mean?
IICL stands for Institute of International Container Lessors, an international institute of container lessors. This organization sets strict standards for the condition of retired containers. A container in IICL quality meets high requirements for strength, tightness, and overall operability.
Specifically, this means that:
- The container is watertight and windproof – rain or moisture cannot get inside.
- It is structurally flawless – load-bearing elements, floor, roof, and walls are free of damage.
- It may have minor cosmetic defects – for example, scratches, abrasions, or slight surface corrosion, which do not affect its functionality in any way.
- It is immediately ready for use – you don’t need to repair or modify anything.
Thanks to this, you get a container that is fully functional and at the same time more cost-effective than a completely new piece. It is an ideal choice for storing tools, materials, seasonal equipment, or machinery.
Color RAL 5010 – elegant gentian blue
RAL 5010, also known as gentian blue, is a rich, dark blue shade that looks professional and understated. Unlike common rust-brown or light blue containers, this color tone fits perfectly into a corporate environment, on a construction site, or on a private property.
The color is not only aesthetically beneficial – a quality coating protects the steel structure from corrosion and extends the lifespan of the container. All containers offered in this category are painted in the RAL 5010 shade, however, since there are more pieces in the depot and stocks are regularly renewed, the shade may slightly differ. We are always happy to confirm the current color on request – just ask us before placing an order.
Who is the container suitable for?
This 20-foot container will find use in many areas:
- Storage of tools and machines – construction companies, tradesmen.
- Seasonal storage – garden equipment, sports equipment, winter tires.
- Site facilities – as a temporary material warehouse or rest room.
- Archiving documents and corporate assets – a secure, lockable space.
- Personal storage – for surplus items, furniture during reconstruction, etc.
Thanks to its robust construction and watertightness, the container is a reliable protection against weather influences and unauthorized entry.
Container pickup – depot La Spezia, Italy
The container is located in a container depot in the Italian port of La Spezia. This strategic location is easily accessible for carriers from all over Central and Southern Europe. La Spezia is an important logistics hub from where you can transport the container anywhere.
The price of the container does not include transport to the destination. The customer must arrange transport themselves, including unloading the container at the destination. The ideal solution is to contact a local carrier who has experience in transporting containers and has a suitable vehicle (e.g., a flatbed truck with a hydraulic arm or a trailer with a container chassis).
After completing the order, we will send you all the documents needed to pick up the container from the depot. You hand over these documents to the carrier of your choice. The carrier will arrive at the La Spezia depot, where they will pick up the container and transport it to the location you specify. Unloading the container at the destination is the responsibility of the customer – either by themselves or in agreement with the carrier.
The container shown is for illustration only. Given that we have more pieces in the depot in the same quality and size, you will receive a container from the same category, but it may not be exactly the one in the photo. For safety reasons, customers are not allowed to enter the depot to inspect the container. However, we guarantee quality corresponding to the IICL standard.
A retired 20-foot container in IICL quality and elegant RAL 5010 color is an affordable but full-fledged storage solution. Its location in the Italian depot La Spezia makes it accessible for carriers from all over Central Europe, while arranging transport remains entirely in the customer’s hands.
