Used 20Ft Open Side / Full Side Access Container

If you need convenient access to large, bulky, or difficult-to-handle items, our Used 20Ft Open Side / Full Side Access Container provides a practical storage solution. Designed with a wide side opening as well as traditional rear cargo doors, it makes loading and unloading equipment, stock, materials, and other oversized items much easier.

Built from durable Corten steel and fitted with a heavy-duty 28mm marine plywood floor, this used open side container is suitable for a wide range of commercial, industrial, construction, and storage applications.

Key Features

Full Side Access for Easier Loading

The main advantage of this Used 20Ft Open Side / Full Side Access Container is its large side opening. With a side door width of approximately 5.82 metres, you can access a much larger section of the container without having to move everything through the rear doors.

This makes it particularly useful for storing long, wide, or bulky items and for applications where frequent access is required.

Used, Wind and Watertight

This container is supplied in used condition while providing protection against normal outdoor weather conditions. Its wind and watertight construction helps keep stored goods protected from rain and exposure when the container is properly closed and maintained.

As with any used container, cosmetic condition can vary between individual units, so specific condition should be confirmed before purchase.

Durable Corten Steel Construction

The container is manufactured from Corten steel, a material commonly used for shipping containers because of its strength and suitability for demanding environments. The robust steel construction makes it suitable for long-term storage, commercial use, construction sites, and industrial applications.

Double Doors for Flexible Access

In addition to the large side opening, the container features traditional double cargo doors at the rear. This gives you multiple access points and allows you to choose the most convenient loading position for your site.

Each door is fitted with two locking bars to help secure the container and its contents.

CSC Plated

The container is CSC plated and designed for a maximum gross weight of up to 24 tonnes, subject to the applicable certification and operating requirements. This provides a suitable option for storage and transportation applications where certified container equipment is required.

Forklift Pockets

Forklift pockets are incorporated into the container structure to assist with handling and positioning where suitable lifting equipment is available. There are two forklift pockets on each side, adding flexibility when moving the unit around a site.

Heavy-Duty 28mm Marine Plywood Flooring

The floor is constructed from 28mm marine plywood supported by steel cross members. This provides a strong and durable base for storing equipment, materials, machinery, inventory, and other heavy goods within the container’s rated capacity.

Eight Vents for Airflow

Eight strategically positioned vents help promote airflow through the container. Good ventilation can help reduce condensation and improve the storage environment for suitable goods, although ventilation requirements will vary depending on the contents and site conditions.

Ideal Applications

A Used 20Ft Open Side / Full Side Access Container can be used for a wide range of applications where conventional container access is not enough, including:

• Storage of large or bulky equipment
• Construction materials and tools
• Commercial inventory storage
• Machinery and equipment storage
• Agricultural equipment and supplies
• Industrial materials
• Warehouse overflow storage
• Retail and stock storage
• On-site project storage
• Long or awkwardly shaped goods

The full side access design is especially useful where goods need to be loaded or removed from different points along the length of the container.

Why Choose a Full Side Access Container?

Standard shipping containers normally rely on doors at one end, which can make it difficult to reach items positioned toward the middle or rear. A full side access design gives you a much wider opening, making the container easier to organise and more convenient for regular loading and unloading.

Combined with rear double doors, secure locking bars, forklift pockets, durable Corten steel construction, and a 28mm marine plywood floor, this container offers a flexible solution for businesses and organisations that need accessible storage space.

A Practical Storage Solution

Whether you’re storing construction equipment, managing commercial inventory, or looking for additional space for bulky materials, this Used 20Ft Open Side / Full Side Access Container gives you the accessibility of a wide side opening while retaining the familiar benefits of a standard 20ft shipping container.

With its durable construction, multiple access points, ventilation, secure doors, and practical internal capacity, it is a versatile option for storage and site use.

Buying a shipping container: what to check

A shipping container is bought on its grade, its doors and its size. One-trip containers have made a single voyage and are close to new; cargo-worthy units are certified fit for sea freight; wind and watertight units have a sound roof, floor and doors, with the cosmetic rust and dents that are normal for that grade. Standard containers are 8ft 6in high and high cubes add a foot, which matters for racking, shelving and conversions. Decide which doors you need (cargo doors, roll-up doors or full side access), then plan the ground: firm, level gravel or concrete pads, and a clear straight run for the tilt-bed truck, roughly 60 feet for a 20ft unit and 100 feet for a 40ft.

Convex Containers is based in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, in the Tulsa area, and sells shipping containers, refrigerated containers, container pools, portable cabins, flat pack buildings and trailers to buyers across the United States.
