Containers for sale in Ostrava in top condition and with EOD, 273 776-7
Looking for a reliable and versatile space that will serve you for many years? These shipping containers measuring 20 feet (approximately 6 meters) in length are the perfect solution. Thanks to their top quality after a single voyage and clever details such as the Easy Open Door opening system and fourteen ventilation openings, they offer much more than just storage. They are in stock at the depot in Ostrava, ready for immediate pickup – individually, transport is not included in the price.
Dimensions, load capacity and volume of a 20-foot container
The twenty-foot container is the most widespread format, which has gained popularity for its compact size and excellent usability. Standard external dimensions are approximately 6.058 meters in length, 2.438 meters in width, and 2.591 meters in height. The interior space is just slightly smaller but still provides a respectable volume – around 33 cubic meters. This means plenty of space for storing tools, garden equipment, building materials, or equipment. The maximum load capacity of the container is typically around 28 tons, while the construction itself weighs approximately 2.2 tons. Thanks to the steel frame and solid floors, it can handle even heavier loads without deformation. This ratio of load capacity to volume makes the 20-foot container a universal helper for both private and business purposes. Dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.
Top quality after one voyage IICL 6 and color RAL 5010
The key factor that distinguishes this container from commonly offered used pieces is the IICL 6 certification. This is an internationally recognized standard that guarantees the container has undergone only a single sea voyage. After this voyage, it was thoroughly inspected and meets strict requirements for tightness, structural integrity, door functionality, and overall condition. IICL 6 containers are practically like new – without dents, corrosion, leaks, or damaged floors. Their service life is significantly longer than that of multi-voyage models, and you can use them immediately after purchase without the need for repairs.
The striking blue RAL 5010 shade (Gentian blue) gives the container not only a fresh and clean look, but also signals that it is a carefully maintained piece. This color is resistant to weather conditions and UV radiation, so it retains its character even after years of exposure to sun and rain. If you need to match the container with its surroundings, you can check the current availability of other color options on request. Regardless of the color, however, you will always receive a container of top IICL 6 quality.
3-bar EOD opening system and fourteen ventilation openings
Opening the container doors is surprisingly comfortable thanks to the Easy Open Door (EOD) system. Instead of traditional fixed bars, it uses three rotating bars with ergonomic handles that allow you to open the massive door panels with one smooth motion. You will especially appreciate this mechanism during frequent handling – the doors don’t jam, don’t require brute force, and can be operated by one person. The EOD system is designed to resist corrosion and remain reliable in all weather conditions.
Another thoughtful feature is the fourteen ventilation openings (Air Vents) distributed throughout the container’s shell. These openings ensure constant air circulation, thereby preventing the accumulation of moisture, condensation, and the formation of mold. For ordinary storage, this is an advantage that protects stored items from mustiness. When converting to a garden house or workshop, however, this feature becomes absolutely essential – natural ventilation keeps the interior dry and healthy, without having to constantly open windows.
Conversion to a garden house – everything you need to know
The shipping container has become a popular base for modern garden houses thanks to its solid construction, insulation, and easy customization. You can transform it into a fully functional living space, a study, a studio, a fitness corner, a children’s playroom, or a sauna. Just add insulation, electrical wiring, plumbing, windows, and doors according to your own design. Some owners leave the container in a minimalist design as storage with seating, others create a cozy house with cladding, terrace, and gable roof.
Who is it suitable for
A garden house made from a container is ideal for families that need additional space for hobbies, working from home, or accommodating guests. It will also be used by cottagers, entrepreneurs looking for cheap premises, or young people who want their first own home without a mortgage. The advantage is that the container can be enlarged at any time by connecting another module, so it grows with your needs.
Where a garden house is suitable – in general and specifically in Ostrava
A container house will find application in family house gardens, recreational areas, on the outskirts of cities, and in allotment colonies. In Ostrava and its surroundings, there are a number of specific locations. For example, in city districts such as Poruba, Svinov, Michálkovice, or Heřmanice, where there are plenty of private plots with space, you can easily place a house. Plots near recreational areas such as the surroundings of the Ostravice River, Landek Park, or Halda Ema are also suitable. Given the industrial character of the region, the container can also serve as a backdrop for workshops, tool storage, or sales stalls at farmers’ markets.
Advantages and why to build a garden house from a container
Compared to a classic brick building, a container house brings several advantages. It is affordable, quick to implement (after modification, you can move in within a few weeks), and you don’t need a building permit if you place it on the land as a temporary structure – however, it always pays to check local regulations. The container is sturdy, resistant to burglary, and thanks to its steel construction, it can withstand even extreme weather. In addition, the conversion supports the recycling of the original shipping container, giving a second life to quality material.
Mobility and recommendations
The container retains its mobility – you can move it to another location at any time. For frequent moves, we recommend keeping the original EOD door system and not interfering with the load-bearing structure. When planning, consider the placement of windows and doors so that you maximize the use of natural light and maintain the statics. For year-round use, quality insulation is necessary (most often spray foam or mineral wool) and underfloor heating or a stove. Don’t block the ventilation openings, on the contrary, use them to remove moisture from the bathroom or kitchen.
Ideas for inspiration
Combine two containers side by side to create a spacious living room with a kitchen. Place a green roof on the roof for better thermal insulation and aesthetic appearance. Clad the outer shell with wood or composite material so that the house blends with its surroundings. Equip the interior with custom-made built-in furniture that makes the most of every centimeter. If you like industrial style, leave part of the steel construction exposed – in combination with warm lighting, an original contrast is created.
