Decommissioned 20-foot storage container – AS IS 5, 228 310-2

A decommissioned shipping container marked AS IS 5 with a length of 20 feet (approximately 6 meters) represents a practical and economically advantageous solution for storage. These containers were previously used in maritime transport and, after being retired from service, serve as affordable warehouses. The “AS IS 5” quality means that the container is functional but may show signs of use – for example, minor cosmetic defects, surface rust, or minor dents. However, it still offers reliable protection against the weather and thieves. Transport of the container to Svitavy and elsewhere in the Czech Republic is free of charge if the conditions listed below are met!

Dimensions, load capacity and volume of a 20′ container

A 20-foot decommissioned container has the following parameters:

• External dimensions: approx. 6.06 m (length) × 2.44 m (width) × 2.59 m (height)

Using a decommissioned container as a warehouse for sports shops

A decommissioned 20-foot container is ideal as a warehouse, especially for shops selling sports equipment. Thanks to its robust construction and durability, it provides a safe base for storing a wide range of products and materials.

What can be stored in the container?

• Sports equipment: bicycles, skis, snowboards, tennis rackets, balls, fitness equipment and other sports equipment.
• Seasonal goods: skates, roller skates, swimming equipment or winter equipment outside the main season.
• Storage of products for customers: reservation and storage of goods before collection.
• Spare parts and accessories: inner tubes, chains, shovels, maintenance and service kits for sports equipment.
• Tools and equipment for site maintenance: mowers, tools, cleaning products, additional material.
• Presentation and advertising materials: banners, stands, promotional items.

Advantages of a container warehouse for sports shops

• Safety: The steel construction protects against theft and intrusion by unauthorized persons.
• Variability: Possibility of internal division with shelves, racks or boxes. Everything can be adapted to the specific needs of the shop.
• Mobility: The container can be easily moved to another part of the site or to another location as needed.
• Protection against the weather: Your assortment will remain dry and protected in all weather conditions.
• Quick installation: Just choose a suitable location and arrange unloading with a crane.

How much can fit into a 20-foot container?

A 20-foot container can be stocked with, for example:

• Dozens of bicycles or skis
• Several pallets with cardboard boxes
• Larger bulky pieces of sports equipment (inflatable boats, paddleboards, sledges, etc.)
• Shelves with smaller goods – fitness accessories, shoes, balls and much more

The capacity of the container allows for a clear arrangement of goods according to seasonality, type or the need for quick access.

Ideas for further use in the shop

• Temporary sale warehouse: For seasonal events or sales outside the main sales area.
• Facilities for the service team: Storage of tools and spare parts directly at the site.
• Storage for customers: For long-term reservations or storage of bulky purchased products.
