Using a decommissioned shipping container to store machinery and accessories

Decommissioned shipping containers, referred to as “AS IS”, offer a wide range of possibilities for subsequent use, despite their previous wear and tear or minor defects. One of the most practical uses is for the storage of goods, tools and equipment. For computer, digital and office equipment shops, such a container can be an ideal solution due to its features, capacity and flexibility.

Benefits of storage in a decommissioned shipping container

Containers were originally designed to transport goods over long distances and in extreme conditions, making them very durable and secure storage spaces. They are made of high quality steel that is weather resistant, protecting the stored items from rain, moisture or dust.

For electronics and computer shops, it is crucial that storage areas are dry, lockable and easily accessible. Shipping containers fully meet these requirements. In addition, they are mobile, which allows them to be moved within the premises according to current needs.

What can be stored in a container?

Shipping containers serve as a versatile storage space that can accommodate a wide range of goods and equipment. For computer, digital and office equipment retailers this can include:

• Inventory of goods for sale: computers, monitors, printers, keyboards, mice, servers and other products waiting for their customers.
• Spare parts and accessories: cables, adapters, batteries, printer cartridges or protective packaging.
• Shop equipment: racks, stands or presentation panels that are not currently in use.
• Maintenance tools: cleaning products, cleaning tools or technical equipment for repairs.

Thanks to its spaciousness and storage organisation, you can easily divide the different categories of goods and keep track of everything.

The capacity of a 20-foot container

A standard 20-foot shipping container is 6,058 mm long, 2,438 mm wide and 2,591 mm high, providing approximately 33 m³ of storage space. This corresponds to the capacity of a smaller warehouse. This space makes it possible to store larger quantities of goods and equipment. For example:

• up to 50 desktop computers including monitors,
• hundreds of packages of accessories such as keyboards and mice,
• shelving for spare parts,
• or a combination of supplies and maintenance tools.

Thanks to its standard shape and dimensions, the container can be easily adapted to specific needs – for example, by installing shelving or dividers for better space organisation.

Examples of practical container use

Do you run a computer shop and need more space outside the main shop? A decommissioned shipping container can be the ideal solution. You can store:

• Seasonal goods: for example, printers or laptops that sell more during a certain period (for example, before Christmas).
• Bulky items: servers or large monitors that take up too much space in the shop.
• Goods awaiting repair: if you provide a service, you can use a container to temporarily store equipment awaiting repair or replacement.
• Maintenance equipment: tools, protective films or cleaning products needed to maintain the shop or warehouse area.

Inspiration and ideas for efficient storage

To make storage in a discarded shipping container as efficient as possible, it is a good idea to follow a few guidelines:

• Create a layout plan: divide the space into sections according to the type of goods. Place frequently used items near the entrance and less used items towards the back.
• Use shelving: Vertical storage helps make the most of the height of the container.
• Ensure clarity: Label each section or box with labels to quickly find the item you want.
• Protect sensitive goods: If you store electronics, use protective packaging or boxes to protect them from impact.

A decommissioned shipping container is a practical, durable and cost-effective solution for storing everything your store needs. Whether it’s inventory, tools or maintenance equipment, this space will give you the flexibility and security you’re looking for. Turn an unused container into a functional storage unit and gain extra space to grow your business!
