Our storage containers go by many names: steel storage containers, shipping containers, ISO containers, Conex containers, Conex boxes, cargo containers, freight containers, ocean containers, or overseas containers. Whatever you choose to call them, we’ve got the right Giant Lock Box for you!
Here’s How It Works
Our containers begin their lives overseas, manufactured and used for shipping goods to the United States. The container takes 45–60 days to make it to port. Then, our container experts select the best new and used shipping containers.
After you fill out our quote form, we can select the best container for your needs. Then, as scheduled, our team will arrive at the drop-off location with one of our cranes, tilt-bed, or flatbed trucks. The method of delivery differs depending on the location and use.
For instance, our crane truck is extremely beneficial for shipping containers required on uneven land or hoisted over fences and gardens. Once the container is in place, we will help you level it. We have the solution if you require a container placed in a hard-to-maneuver place that flatbed or tilt-bed trucks can’t reach.
Shipping Container Features
Our containers are water, wind, rodent, and fireproof. They easily withstand any weather or attempted break-ins. Rest assured that your items are safe in a Giant Lock Box container.
A Giant Lock Box container is made from CORE-TEN or weathering steel. This high-quality steel is so strong and durable that it is used in bridge construction in the United States. Over twenty years ago, using shipping containers often or for secondary uses, like our customers, would have been nearly impossible. The container would rust away.
CORE-TEN, or corten, containers do rust. However, the weathering process does not lead to degradation or large holes. Our shipping containers are also outfitted with waterproof marine plywood flooring built atop metal eye beams. This allows for level storage and accessibility by the user.
Standard shipping container sizes are 20 and 40 feet (12.19 meters) long. Forty-foot, high-cube shipping containers (9’ 6” tall) and other sizes are available upon request. Not sure what size you need? Please let us know on the quote form, and we’ll guide you to the right container for your application.
The floor can hold up to 70,000 lbs of payload. When stacked eight high, the lowest container can hold over 500,000 lbs. How’s that for durability?
At Giant Lock Box, we assign five different grades to our containers:
