Tunnel Containers
As the name suggests the most important feature of a tunnel containers is the dual door design at the opposite end of the container. This greatly improves access and makes tunnel containers ideal for storage and handling.
They are popular for converting into self storage units as you can divide them by adding walls to divide them. We have helped customers make use of them for storage of plant machinery and secure access to the site with turnstiles.
Dual Access

Tunnel containers are an altered version of a standard shipping container with double doors at both ends. These containers are also referred to as a "double door end container" or a "tunnel-shaped container". They provide access to the storage items on both ends.
The dual-end access allows cargo to be loaded and unloaded from either side of the container. This is ideal for transporting larger or bulkier goods which would otherwise have to be backed in and out of the container. Double-end access eliminates the requirement to empty the entire container to access the items that are buried within, thereby saving time and reducing the chance of damage.
This innovative feature makes tunnel containers adaptable and flexible. They can be used for a diverse range of storage and transport needs, including being converted into living spaces or mobile offices. These containers are made of tough, corrosion-resistant Corten steel and are able to stand up to the most severe weather conditions.
If you're looking for a more secure solution we can join steel bulkheads to one of the long sides, resulting in two storage compartments that measure 10 feet. This makes them ideal for self-storage companies that are looking to improve security by separating their customers' items into separate areas. Our double-end door containers are a favorite at large events as ticket entry points because they can hold long lines of people and keep them dry.
Our 20ft double door tunnel containers have fork pockets that can be used with industrial forklifts. This means that they are able to be stackable or lifted at the corners of each side. They are also fitted with heaters and PIR insulation, making them ideal for storage during the entire year.
If you're looking for a more customized container solution We can also create custom-sized tunnel containers that exactly meet your requirements. We can produce tunnel containers with single or double-sided versions, and different lengths. Custom-sized tunnel containers are more expensive than conventional shipping containers, therefore we recommend selecting the most suitable size that meets your needs.
Temperature-Sensitive Goods
The storage of the most dangerous goods such as explosives or flammable liquids is best stored at temperatures that are optimal. Temperature fluctuations can trigger a variety of problems, including a explosion and toxic fumes. When storing tunnel container uses -sensitive hazardous goods, it's essential that container terminal facilities are equipped with the appropriate monitoring equipment to track and identify any anomalies or deviations from set temperatures.
In many cases the fluctuations are difficult to spot, especially in the middle of a busy day. Container terminals must use an instrument to keep track of the temperature of all reefer containers within their facility. This allows personnel the ability to react quickly in the event of any anomalies and to avoid any potential risks.
Tunnel containers are a practical option when it comes to transporting and storing temperature-sensitive goods. Double doors are situated at both ends of the container, making it easier to load and unload during transportation as well as storage. They can also be used to store bulky objects such as machinery and vehicles.
The modified containers are typically constructed from a standard 20ft or 40ft shipping container. The solid end is removed and new double doors is welded into place, allowing two-way access. These modified containers are typically employed on construction sites where heavy machinery must be passed over and under.
Some container terminals also transform their tunnel shipping containers to serve as a secure entrance to the site by installing a turnstile or manually-operated security checkpoints as visitors pass through. These conversions, not available in standard sizes, can be easily customized to meet specific requirements. They are also more cost-effective than building a complete facility. Tunnel containers are generally only available in a brand new 'one trip' condition, as their owners create them specifically for a specific use and then retain them. They are highly sought-after by those who want to expand their warehouse or business without having to invest in brand new refrigeration facilities. They are also a very economical solution for those who want to store temperature-sensitive goods over long periods of time, or for transporting large volumes of cargo over long distances.
Convenient Storage
If you're looking for storage for your cargo, a tunnel container is an ideal choice. These containers come with double doors at both ends of the container, unlike standard dry storage containers which have doors on one side. This allows you to access your storage container on either side. This makes it easier to load and unload goods.
This dual entry point is particularly beneficial for a container that is used to store items you need frequent access to equipment or machinery equipment. This means you don't have to shift your vehicle in and out of the storage container continuously which could cause damage to the container and your vehicle.
You can also keep your items in a tunnel container if you need to maintain the temperature of a certain level. The thermal and refrigerator tunnel containers are ideal for this, as they have temperature control that keeps the items inside at a particular temperature.
In addition to allowing an easy access, a tunnel container is an ideal solution for a garage or workshop, as it allows you to easily access every area of your workspace without the need to move objects around. Two doors at either end allow you to quickly get into and out of your storage container when needed.
One-trip tunnel containers are offered as new constructions, with two sets double doors or modified shipping containers. In the second scenario, the solid end is removed from the container and a pair of double doors are joined to the other end.
Shipping containers like these are typically only available in new , in a condition that is only one-trip, since their owners have built them specifically for a certain purpose and don't want them to be sold. Some companies are still offering refurbished tunnel containers. These containers that have been refurbished are tested to ensure that they are safe to transport and are sold with an extended warranty.
Easy Transportation
Double cargo doors on both sides of the tunnel container make it simple to load and unload items from either end. This makes these containers ideal for carrying all kinds of bulk and general cargo, as well as special items such as motorbikes or cars. 40 ft tunnel container are frequently used to create temporary tunnels on construction sites because of their durability, security, and ease in modification.
Shipping containers with double doors make for fantastic storage. The ability to access both sides of the container means that there is no need to completely unload the goods or remove a section of the container to reach the contents stored in the back, which will save time and money. The doors on both sides can be locked to protect any unauthorized access.
These containers are made of corten steel and are designed to withstand tough conditions. These containers are water- and wind-proof and they have ventilation to allow airflow. These features can shield the goods from moisture, thus decreasing the risk of loss and deterioration.
Based on your needs, you can choose among a variety of options for tunnel containers. Open top containers, like, have a bow-top that can be removed to allow loading of large and heavy cargo easier. Side open containers have doors that are placed on the side of the container, making them ideal for storing smaller goods. A refrigerated ISO container, or reefer, has a regulated temperature and can be used to store temperature-sensitive goods.
They are available in new and refurbished models in sizes of 40 and 20 feet and have doors at both ends for easy loading. They can also be custom sized to suit your unique needs, but it will cost more than the standard double-end door containers.
