On-Site Storage Solutions provides a complete range of shipping container dimensions, sizes, and kinds to meet all types of demands and requirements, including:
Used storage containers come in standard sizes including 20′, 40′, 40′ High Cube and 45′ High Cube. We also sell new storage containers with other sizes and configurations starting as short as 10′. See chart with new sizes. Note availability varies.
For many general purposes uses, a container size of 20 feet is popular. The door height is a little over 7.5 feet with a width of about 7 feet 8 inches. If you are transporting heavy duty equipment consider a 20-foot long flat rack container.
There are also 40-foot long general-purpose shipping containers. For transporting products requiring refrigeration there are also 40-foot long refrigerated containers.
A 40′ and 40′ HC are typically a better value with roughly twice the storage capacity of a 20′. If your home has 4 furnished bedrooms, we recommend a 40′ storage container or larger container like a 45′ or 53′, so ask for prices if that applies.
We generally source Wind and Water Tight (WWT) Containers, which have been used on cargo ships, so they are strong and sturdy, show signs of use like dings and dents and may have some paint chips. If none of the cosmetic stuff matters to you, then you get it at a great price and it can be safely used for storage of your contents. A step up in condition from that is the Cargo Worthy Container (CWO), which is CSC certified for Ocean-Vessel Shipment. Above that is the One-Trip Container, which is nearly new with maybe a dent or two. The higher the condition, the higher the price, so if you just need a container for storage, Wind and Water Tight (WWT) is the cheapest.
CSC plate applies only to shipping worthy containers. For more information about the size dimensions and weight of the containers (tare), see below.

I was looking for 40ft shipping container and I saw Onsite Storage Solutions price for the container. It was very cheap, and the staffs are friendly when I talked to them. The delivery time is so fast and the container is still on its perfect condition. I rate it a 10/5.
