New & Used Double-Door (Tunnel) Containers For Sale
Double-door shipping containers, also known as Tunnel Containers, are shipping containers with doors on both ends acting like a tunnel with an entry and exit point. They are commonly used on construction sites and for projects that require loading from both ends. With doors at both the front and back, this container provides easy access to store, retrieve, and organize goods or materials. With some modifications (e.g. adding a partition), these containers can be used to create separate storage spaces or container offices, or even to establish a pair of retail kiosks.
