Tunnel containers are available in a new "one-trip" condition and can be used for a range of storage and conversion projects. Many customers utilize tunnel containers to create small storage units for safe storage by dividing the space.
Easy Access

Tunnel containers are weatherproof steel and can be used outdoors in a variety of different places. For example many of our clients utilize them to keep their staff and guests safe from rain and wind when security checks are conducted at large events like concerts and festivals. Two tunnel containers set from side-to-side will keep a multitude of people safe from the elements whilst they wait to be scanned or checked into.
Recently, we renovated two tunnel containers into a cozy gift shop for the railway heritage site. Using PIR insulation and heaters, the shipping container tunnel was equipped with lighting and double sockets to allow for year-round use. The customer was so happy with the result that they ordered a second container to build a larger shop!
