Supporting Storage Growth in Somerset- New 40ft High Cube Dark Green Container Delivered to Self-Storage Facility in Taunton

Boxtor recently completed the successful supply and delivery of a brand-new 40ft High Cube shipping container, finished in RAL 6007 dark green, to a growing self-storage facility in Taunton, Somerset.
 

As demand for containerised self-storage continues to increase across the UK, the facility required additional secure storage capacity. 40ft high cube units provide 360 sq ft of storage space.  Leveraging our extensive experience in the self-storage sector, Boxtor was able to provide a high-specification 40ft unit in RAL 6007 bottle green, as well as guidance in how to maximise storage capacity with high cube containers. 

Manufactured by us in China, and delivered direct to site. Boxtor has over 35 years of experience supplying the self-storage industry and offers nationwide HIAB delivery for container storage projects.

The Requirement

The customer required:
  • Additional drive-up self-storage space
  • A durable, weatherproof storage solution
  • A professional appearance to complement the existing facility
  • Fast delivery and positioning on site
After reviewing the available options, a new 40ft High Cube container in dark green was selected as the ideal solution

The Solution

Boxtor supplied a brand-new 40ft High Cube shipping container finished in RAL 6007 dark green. These units provide approximately 360 sq ft of storage capacity and are one of the most popular options for self-storage operators looking to maximise rentable space. The containers are manufactured to a high specification and include:
 
  • Easy-open 3 locking bar door
  • Multiple ventilation points (18 vents)
  • Factory-fitted slimline lockbox
  • Marine-grade steel construction
  • 9ft 6in high cube design for increased internal volume
 
These containers are supplied as “one-trip” units, meaning they arrive in near-new condition after a single journey from the manufacturing facility.
