Containers With A Multitude Of Uses

Container adaptations can vary greatly; we have altered hundreds of containers throughout the years for a variety of applications. Simple modifications like adding a side window or side access door can be made, while more intricate ones like installing insulation, cladding, plumbing, and electrical systems can be installed. Whatever your needs, we would be happy to assist in designing the perfect container conversion. Why not give us a call to discuss your project? Our staff has years of experience in the container conversion industry. We would be happy to share our knowledge with you and offer advice on the best adjustment to meet your needs. If you need something a little bit different, we’re interested in doing all kinds of shipping container modifications and conversions.

Containers Weights

The payload, the gross weight, and the bare weight are the three pertinent weights. When the container doors are in use or before they have been repainted for a different purpose, these are painted onto their exterior. The weight of the container without any freight or contents is known as the “tare weight.” The weight of the container plus the greatest payload it can accommodate—that is, the maximum total weight of the container—is its gross weight. The weight of the cargo or contents that a container can hold is known as the payload, sometimes known as net weight.
