Are you looking for a reliable, spacious, and excellently preserved sea container? This 40’GP model in One-Trip IICL 6 quality, stored in Gdańsk, Poland, represents one of the most sought-after variants on the market. Let’s take a look at what this container offers and who in Gdańsk and the surrounding area it can best serve. Container transport is not included in the price; independent pickup from the Gdańsk, Poland depot is required.
Dimensions, Load Capacity, and Volume of the 40-Foot Container
The 40’GP (General Purpose) container is a standardized transport and storage unit governed by international ISO standards. Its parameters are as follows:
- External length: 12,192 mm (40 feet)
- External width: 2,438 mm (8 feet)
- External height: 2,591 mm (8 feet 6 inches)
- Internal length: approximately 12,032 mm

- Internal height: approximately 2,393 mm
- Volume: approximately 67.7 m³
- Load capacity: up to 26,700 kg
- Empty container weight: approximately 3,700 kg
Thanks to these dimensions and high load capacity, the 40’GP container is an ideal choice for transporting and storing bulky goods, materials, or equipment. Its internal space can accommodate, for example, larger quantities of pallets, building materials, furniture, or machinery. Dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.
One-Trip IICL 6 Quality – What Does It Mean?
The One-Trip designation means that the container has completed only one sea voyage with cargo – typically from Asia to Europe. After this single voyage, it is retired from shipping service and sold as used, but with minimal wear. In practice, these are containers that are only a few months old and have not undergone the demanding operations of repeated loading and unloading cycles.
The IICL 6 classification is based on the inspection standards of the Institute of International Container Lessors. The IICL 6 grade designates a container that meets strict technical requirements – it is structurally flawless, leak-free, with functional doors, sealing, floor, and walls. Unlike lower quality grades, such as AS IS or Cargo Worthy, you will not find significant dents, corrosion, or paint damage here. The container is in a condition that allows immediate deployment into service without the need for repairs.
In short: you are buying a container that looks and functions almost like new, but at the price of a used one.
RAL 6007 Color – Subtle and Universal Appearance
RAL 6007, also known as bottle green, is a very dark shade of green that looks elegant and unobtrusive in exterior settings. This shade blends perfectly into natural environments, industrial sites, and urban developments – it easily merges with surrounding greenery while maintaining a professional appearance. Compared to more striking colors, it does not attract unnecessary attention and is also practical in terms of visible soiling.
However, please note that the specific shade may vary slightly between individual units, and the color must always be verified before ordering. The depot contains several containers in this quality category, and their color availability changes daily.
Uses of the 40’GP Sea Container in Top IICL Quality
A container in One-Trip IICL 6 quality opens up a wide range of possibilities:
- Storage of materials and goods: Thanks to a volume of nearly 68 m³ and excellent technical condition, it is ideal for safe storage of tools, building materials, seasonal equipment, or company supplies. Tightness and weather resistance guarantee the protection of contents.
- Transport: The container is fully certified for sea, rail, and road transport. It is suitable for companies that need to transport a larger volume of goods at one time and subsequently continue using the container.
- Construction: Construction companies appreciate mobile storage directly on the construction site. The sturdy steel construction withstands even demanding conditions.
- Conversions: Thanks to its top condition, this container is an excellent base for conversions into workshops, offices, employee facilities, sales stands, or even residential units. Straight walls, a solid floor, and functional doors significantly facilitate all modifications.
