Used shipping containers 6m – decommissioned from transport 20′ AS IS 2, 268 368-0

Looking for a robust, spacious and cost-effective storage facility for your craft, entertainment, or educational facility? Used shipping containers with a length of 20 feet (6 meters) in decommissioned AS IS 2 quality are a practical solution that combines durability, safety, and immediate usability. Whether you operate a workshop, an interactive park, a museum of living crafts, or an educational center, these containers will provide you with plenty of space for everything you need to have at hand – with transport to Bystřice nad Perštejnem and anywhere throughout the Czech Republic, free of charge once the conditions stated below are met.

Dimensions, load capacity and volume of 6m containers

The 20-foot shipping container, often referred to as 20′ DC (dry container), is a globally standardized transport and storage element. Its external dimensions are approximately 6.06 meters in length, 2.44 meters in width, and 2.59 meters in height. The interior space is only slightly smaller – length around 5.90 m, width 2.35 m and height 2.39 m. The total internal volume reaches approximately 33 cubic meters, which means you can easily load a larger amount of materials, tools, or inventory.

As for load capacity, these containers provide massive capacity. The maximum gross weight (including the container’s own weight) is standardly 30,480 kg. The tare weight of the empty container is around 2,200 kg, so the net load capacity – i.e., the amount of goods you can safely load into it – exceeds 28,000 kg. Dimensions are approximate and may always vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.

Use for craft, entertainment, and educational facilities: storage without compromise

Used shipping containers are an ideal backdrop for facilities where craft, entertainment, and education intersect. Why? Because they offer immediate, safe, and practical space for everything you need in such an operation. Whether it’s a workshop where traditional crafts are taught, an interactive exhibition for children, or a themed park with demonstrations of historical technologies – the container serves as the perfect storage facility that can be placed directly at the designated site, without the need for lengthy construction.

Storage of equipment

A craft facility is full of bulky equipment – carpentry workbenches, ceramic kilns, tool stands, shelving with materials, or even mobile podiums for demonstration events. A 20-foot container can comfortably fit, for example:

• A large workshop kiln (1.5 m × 1.2 m × 1.8 m) and next to it a pallet rack with clay supplies.
• Tables and chairs for outdoor workshops – up to 30 pieces stacked together.
• Tens of meters of wooden beams, boards, and lumber stored vertically along the walls.

The internal volume of 33 m³ and load capacity of over 28 tons mean you don’t have to limit yourself even with heavier machines.

Storage of tools

Tools and instruments are the heart of every craft workshop. Used shipping containers can be neatly organized using wall panels, magnetic strips, mobile carts, or plastic boxes. They can fit:

• A complete set of hand tools (hammers, saws, drills, clamps) for multiple workstations.
• Power tools such as grinders, circular saws, or welding machines – up to 15–20 pieces in lockable cabinets.
• Hundreds of small components (screws, nails, paints) in labeled containers on shelves.

Security is ensured by sturdy doors with a locking mechanism that protects property against unauthorized persons and adverse weather.

Storage for visitors

Educational and entertainment facilities often need a base for visitors – whether it’s protective equipment, additional merchandise, or seasonal gear. The container can neatly store:

• Hundreds of protective helmets, vests, and gloves in plastic containers.
• Equipment for children’s workshops: small tables, chairs, creative kits in crates.
• Seasonal items, such as outdoor decorations, costumes for themed events, or even portable fire pits for public demonstrations.

Thanks to targeted delivery of the container directly to the facility, complicated moving is eliminated – the container serves as an immediate warehouse right after placement.

Storage for employees

Operating personnel appreciate having all work aids and materials at hand. A 20-foot container can fit:

• Clothing and uniforms for the team – up to 50 sets in textile boxes.
• Cleaning products and equipment for facility maintenance (vacuums, mops, buckets) on a designated shelf.
• Office equipment, such as flipcharts, printers, banners, or even small furniture for staff back areas.

Consistent dimensions allow efficient use of every centimeter – for example, ceiling storage systems for lightweight items such as rolls of canvas or textile banners.

Storage for maintenance

Every facility requires regular care of outdoor areas, buildings, and equipment. The container will become an indispensable warehouse for maintenance equipment:

• Lawn mowers, chainsaws, brush cutters – up to 3–4 large machines including fuel canisters (safely stored in a ventilated space).
• Tools for fence, bench, and gazebo repairs – from shovels and pickaxes to power tools.
• Supplies of gravel, sand, or de-icing salt in massive bags – totaling several tons of material.

The flat roof of the container can also serve as a base for draining rainwater into barrels, supporting the ecological operation of the facility.

Storage of goods for sale

Many craft facilities offer their own products – from ceramics to textiles to souvenirs. The container is ideally suited as a mobile or stationary warehouse for these purposes:

• Hundreds of pieces of ceramics, glassware, or wooden toys in protective packaging on shelves.
• Sales stands, sun umbrellas, and even a mobile bar or cash box – all folded and protected from weather conditions.
• Supplies of packaging material (boxes, bubble wrap) for packaging products directly on site.

How much fits in a 20-foot container – a specific idea

For better orientation: a standard 20′ container can hold approximately 10–11 euro pallets (each 120 cm × 80 cm) placed in one row on the floor. If you use racking systems, the capacity doubles. In practice, this means:

• Up to 25,000 bricks stored on pallets.
• Volume equivalent to approximately 600 transport boxes of size 50 × 50 × 50 cm.
• Spaces for the complete inventory of a smaller museum, including exhibits, display cases, and lighting.

Thanks to the generous doors (opening to the full width of one end wall), handling with a forklift or pallet truck is quick and trouble-free.

Important notice: container in AS IS 2 quality – for storage only

Used shipping containers marked as “AS IS 2” are no longer suitable for conversions, residential purposes, or significant modifications to the structure. They may bear signs of wear, such as scratches, dents, or spot corrosion, but still perfectly fulfill their storage function. Their load capacity, floor strength, and sealability remain reliable – ideal for outdoor storage where you don’t need the appearance of a new container, but rather practicality and price. For storage purposes, as described above, these used shipping containers represent unbeatable value.
