With two standard double doors at both ends tunnel shipping containers give the most convenient access to items stored than a normal container that has only one set of doors. This makes them incredibly popular with self-storage companies who use them to create distinct storage areas for different kinds of items, for example boxes and tools in one, and furniture or machinery in the other.

Two tunnel containers laid side-to-side can keep dozens of people safe from the elements whilst they wait to be scanned or checked into.

Recently, we renovated two tunnel containers into an inviting gift shop for an historic railway site. By using PIR insulation and heaters the shipping container tunnel was fitted with lighting and double sockets for all-year-round use. The customer was so thrilled with the results that they purchased a second container to build a larger shop!

They are also utilized by a variety of self-storage companies that divide them in the middle to create two smaller stores, which gives access from both sides (where the standard container would only have one entry point).

In addition to the dual door access tunnel containers can be modified just as easily as other kinds of shipping container. This means that you can add lighting and even windows, depending on your requirements. They can also be converted into workshops, offices or retail spaces.
