Are you looking for a reliable, spacious and essentially new shipping container that can handle demanding storage, transport and creative conversions? This 40-foot High Cube container in One Way quality (one-trip) is exactly what your project needs. Its exceptional condition, thoughtful equipment and free shipping throughout the Czech Republic make it an ideal choice for private individuals, companies and associations – for example, volunteer fire brigades.

Dimensions, load capacity and volume of the 40′ High Cube container

The 40′ High Cube container offers 30 cm more interior space compared to the standard height. The standard dimensions are:

• External length: 12,192 mm (40 feet)
• External width: 2,438 mm
• External height: 2,896 mm
• Internal length: approximately 12,032 mm
• Internal width: approximately 2,352 mm
• Internal height: approximately 2,698 mm

This internal volume is roughly 76.4 m³. The container’s load capacity is usually around 28,600 kg, while the tare weight is approximately 3,900 kg. The maximum gross weight of a loaded container is 32,500 kg, so it can easily accommodate even heavy equipment. Dimensions are approximate and may always vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.

One Way IICL 6 quality and RAL 5010 colour

The designation “One Way” means that the container has been used for only one transport journey from the place of manufacture to Europe. Its condition corresponds to the highest category of used containers – IICL 6, which is an international standard for containers in an almost perfect condition without structural damage, leaks or visible corrosion.

This particular unit is in very nice condition. Its wooden floor is completely intact, without any scratches or stains. The door sealing is perfect, so neither water nor dust can penetrate inside. The original paint is rich and uniform, with no signs of corrosion – the container looks like new.

The colour RAL 5010, known as gentian blue, is a deep and elegant shade of blue. It looks professional and at the same time understated, so it fits perfectly in both industrial areas and the environment of municipalities or fire stations. The blue colour is also resistant to fading and retains its appearance in the long term.

The container is equipped with standard opening with four rods, which ensures easy and safe closing. It contains 10 ventilation openings (Air Vents) for natural air flow, which is especially important when storing moisture-sensitive material. Security is enhanced by a Lock Box mounted directly from the factory – the locking mechanism is protected against forced entry, so unwanted guests cannot get into the container.

Use for volunteer fire brigades

Volunteer firefighters need a reliable and safe base for their equipment. This container offers them a solution that combines large interior volume, durability and mobility. Take a look at the specific options.

Who it is suitable for

The container is suitable for any volunteer fire brigade that needs:

• to expand the storage capacity of the fire station,
• to create a mobile base for the response unit,
• to ensure safe storage of equipment outside the main building,
• or to build a temporary site during reconstruction of the fire station.

Storage options

Thanks to a volume of over 76 m³ and an internal height of 2.7 metres, even bulky equipment fits inside. The container can be used as:

• storage for hoses, nozzles, suction pipes and fittings,
• storage for portable motor pumps, sludge pumps and power generators,
• storage for breathing apparatus and protective suits,
• storage for tools, ladders, lighting equipment and spare parts,
• fuel storage in separate containers (provided adequate ventilation is ensured).

What can be stored and how much fits

A 40′ High Cube container can accommodate, for example:

• 8 to 10 portable motor pumps (PS 12 and larger),
• several hundred metres of fire hoses stored on racks,
• a large floating pump and accessories,
• full equipment for dozens of brigade members (response suits, helmets, gloves),
• or complete equipment for firefighting, technical interventions and flood protection.

In practice, the container can be filled to serve as a fully-fledged warehouse for the entire brigade.

Transport options and what to transport

The container is standardly adapted for transport on a low-loader or semi-trailer. Volunteer firefighters can use it as a transport unit, for example, when:

• moving equipment to competitions, training or interventions as part of inter-regional assistance,
• transporting equipment during floods or other emergencies,
• humanitarian aid – transporting clothing, hygiene supplies or tools.

The container can be easily loaded onto a vehicle with a hook loader or by crane and moved wherever it is needed.

Conversion options and what it can all be converted into

The greatest advantage of the container is its versatility. A number of conversions can be carried out for volunteer fire brigades:

• Mobile fire equipment storage – installation of shelves, racks and hose holders, lighting and electrical installation.
• Base for the response unit – creation of a changing room with benches, coat racks and storage boxes, including heating.
• Office or command post – insulation, installation of windows, doors, electricity and air conditioning.
• Training room – equipped with tables, projector and board for teaching young firefighters.
• Combined storage and workshop – separation of space for equipment storage and a workbench for minor repairs.

Conversions can be carried out by yourself or with the help of a specialised company. Thanks to its solid frame and quality construction, the container is an excellent basis for any modifications.

Benefits for volunteer firefighters

• Immediate condition – the container is ready for use immediately after delivery, no repairs are needed.
• Security – Lock Box protects against theft, solid doors and construction resist forced entry attempts.
• Weather resistance – thanks to perfect sealing and durable paint, no corrosion occurs, the contents remain dry.
• Low maintenance costs – quality paint and intact parts do not require repainting or replacement.
• Mobility – the container can be moved at any time to another fire station or to the site of an intervention.

Other uses for volunteer fire brigades

In addition to storage and conversions, the container also finds use in:

• protection of municipal property – temporary storage of material during natural disasters,
• organising collections – safe storage of donated material,
• building a base for cultural events organised by the brigade (e.g. as a refreshment stand).

Mobility and recommendations

Thanks to the standard dimensions, the container can be transported by conventional truck technology. For brigades that do not have their own carrier, we recommend arranging cooperation with a local transport company – unloading of the container will be handled by a crane, which is easily available. Because the container belongs to the maritime class, it can be used outdoors without worry.

Ideas for improving warehouse efficiency:

• Use mobile racks to make use of the full height of the space.
• Install battery-powered LED lighting so that the warehouse is independent of the mains.
• Create an inventory system with QR codes for a quick overview of stored equipment.

Container transport throughout the Czech Republic completely free

Transport of the container to Čáslav and anywhere else in the Czech Republic is completely free. Outside the Czech Republic, transport must be inquired about individually depending on the destination. A crane is required to unload the container, which the customer arranges on their own. Loading of the container at the depot is already included in the price.
