Dimensions, load capacity, and volume of the 20-foot container

This 20-foot container has the standard dimensions we know from international shipping. The length is 6.058 meters (20 feet), the width is 2.438 meters, and the height is 2.591 meters. The interior space offers a volume of approximately 33.2 m³, providing plenty of room for various equipment and materials. The load capacity of the container is around 28,000 kilograms, so it can handle even very heavy items such as stone slabs, tools, or bags of substrate. At the same time, thanks to its robust steel construction, it is fully lockable and resistant to weather conditions, so it will reliably protect its contents. Dimensions are indicative and may always vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.

One-trip IICL 6 quality and RAL 5010 color

The container is in IICL 6 quality, which means it has made only one sea voyage and has subsequently passed a strict inspection according to IICL standards. It is a very well-preserved unit without structural defects, with minimal signs of use – usually only slight abrasions on the floor or walls. The doors seal properly, the floor is solid, and the overall condition is excellent and fully functional. This container is also in deep blue color RAL 5010 (gentian blue), which is not only elegant but also practical – visually it blends discreetly with the surrounding greenery and is also resistant to UV radiation and corrosion.

Easy Open Door (EOD) and 12 ventilation openings

One of the main advantages of this model is the EOD (Easy Open Door) system – a set of three rod mechanisms that allow you to open the swing doors literally with one movement, even while wearing work gloves or during frequent handling. You will appreciate this especially during daily use, when the container is entered several times a day. The equipment also includes twelve ventilation openings that ensure constant air circulation. This significantly reduces the risk of condensation, mold, and musty odor – ideal for storing textiles, wood products, bags of soil, or tools that could be damaged by moisture.

Light scratch, favorable price

This particular container has a light scratch on one side, which does not affect its functionality, tightness, or load capacity in any way. It is a minor cosmetic defect, thanks to which we can offer it at a reduced price. If you are looking for a storage space that will primarily serve its purpose and you don’t need a perfect appearance, this unit is an excellent choice.

Storage for gravediggers and cemeteries

Cemetery administrations and gravedigger companies often face a lack of covered storage space. Tools, monuments, decorations, seasonal ornaments, and bags of soil must be protected from rain, wind, and frost. A shipping container solves this problem immediately – it is durable, lockable, and thanks to ventilation openings, also well-ventilated. In addition, it can be placed practically anywhere on a hard surface, without having to build a masonry building.

What can be stored in a 20-foot container

The container can comfortably accommodate a wide range of equipment:

• Gravedigger’s tools (shovels, pickaxes, hoes, wheels, chainsaws, drills).
• Work clothes, gloves, rubber boots.
• Monuments, stone slabs, curbs, and sculptural material.
• Bags of substrate, soil, sand, gravel.
• Seasonal decorations – wreaths, flower arrangements, lanterns, candles.
• Grave lights, vases, and other stonemason accessories.
• Wooden crosses, stands, frames.
• Tools for greenery maintenance (brush cutters, lawnmowers, sprayers).
• The space can also be used as a small workshop for minor repairs.

How much fits inside and the benefits of storage

A volume of 33.2 m³ means you can stack into the container, for example:

• Approximately 20 pallets with soil or sand,
• several dozen stonemason blocks,
• all tools for the entire cemetery team including seasonal decorations.

Benefits of storage in a container:

• Protection from weather conditions – rain, snow, or frost will not damage stored equipment.
• Security – massive steel doors with a lockable mechanism protect against theft.
• Ventilation – 12 ventilation openings prevent condensation and mold, which is crucial for textiles, wood, and organic materials.
• Easy access – thanks to the EOD opening system, you can get into the container quickly even with full hands.
• Mobility – the container can be moved to another location at any time.

Who is it suitable for and where to place it

The container will be used by:

• Municipal cemetery administrations – for a central storage of tools and materials.
• Private gravediggers – as a mobile base for several cemeteries in the region.
• Stonemason companies – storage of semi-finished products and finished monuments.
• Gardening and pruning crews – storage of equipment for greenery care.

It can be placed at the edge of a cemetery, in a technical background area, in the courtyard of the cemetery administration, or even on a fenced plot nearby. The blue RAL 5010 color is discreet and does not disturb the solemn character of the place.

Other possibilities of using the container in the cemetery area

In addition to storage, the container can be used in other ways:

• As an office back office – after insulation and installation of electricity, it serves as a small office for the cemetery administrator.
• As a workshop for minor stonemason work, tool sharpening, or repairs.
• As a sales stand – during All Souls’ Day or Christmas, the container can be converted into a sales point for wreaths, candles, and flower decorations.
• As back office for workers – a place to change clothes, rest, or store personal belongings.

Most suitable locations in the Czech Republic

Containers have proven themselves especially at larger cemeteries in Prague (e.g., Olšany cemeteries, Ďáblice cemetery, Vinohrady cemetery), in Brno (Central cemetery), Ostrava, Plzeň, Olomouc, and other regional cities. They are also suitable for smaller municipalities that manage multiple cemeteries in the region – one container can serve as a shared storage for several cemetery areas. The advantage is that the container can be placed even in less accessible places where a masonry building would not fit.

Ideas and inspiration for use

• Mobile storage for seasonal decorations – in spring and summer you can store flower arrangements, in autumn wreaths and candles. After the season, you can move it to another location.
• Combination with a shelving system – the interior of the container can be equipped with shelves, hooks, and storage boxes, making use of every centimeter.
• Outdoor storage for sand and gravel – thanks to the load capacity and volume, it can hold a larger amount of bulk materials that can be scooped with a shovel directly from the container.
• Back office for cemetery celebrations – during anniversaries or holidays, it serves as storage for benches, tents, and equipment.
