Large-Capacity Self-Storage Unit

The 6 × 2 m self-storage container provides a practical solution for customers who need significantly more space than compact or medium-sized units. Its approximate internal dimensions of 5722 × 1982 mm create a long, accessible storage area that can be organized with shelving, racks or open floor space.

For commercial self-storage operators, this model provides a high-capacity rental option for household moves, business storage and bulky contents. Combining it with smaller 2 × 2 m, 3 × 2 m, 4 × 2 m and 5 × 2 m units creates a varied rental mix for different customer requirements.

Galvanized Steel Construction

The container is manufactured using galvanized steel structural components and corrugated steel wall and roof panels. This construction provides a durable enclosure for personal, commercial and industrial storage applications.

Galvanization offers improved corrosion resistance compared with untreated steel and helps reduce maintenance requirements during long-term use. The final material thicknesses, coating system and structural requirements are determined according to the destination, intended application and environmental conditions.

For outdoor installation, the container must be correctly assembled and sealed and positioned on a firm, level and adequately drained base.

Practical Access for Bulky Items

The wide front access configuration simplifies the movement of furniture, commercial stock, tools and larger stored items. The illustrated design includes double-opening doors together with an integrated personnel access door for convenient daily use.

Available security options can include different locking arrangements and accessories selected according to the operational requirements of the facility. The final door and locking configuration is confirmed before production.

Product Specifications

Dimensions are based on the current technical drawings. Final measurements, product weight and technical specifications must be confirmed in the approved project documentation.

Flat-Pack Delivery for Large Projects

The container is transported as a compact package of prefabricated structural and enclosure components. With an approximate flat-pack height of 302 mm, the system reduces transportation volume compared with shipping each unit fully assembled.

This makes the 6 × 2 m model suitable for international deliveries, storage rental fleets and commercial facilities requiring multiple high-capacity units.

The number of containers transported in each shipment depends on the final specifications, selected accessories, packing arrangement and applicable transportation limits. A project-specific loading plan can be prepared after the configuration and quantity are approved.

On-Site Assembly

The components are manufactured before delivery and assembled at the project location using the specified connection system. This reduces fabrication work at the destination and allows multiple containers to be installed in coordinated rows.

Assembly requirements depend on the project conditions and final product configuration. Technical documentation and assembly guidance can be supplied with the order.

OSB Flooring for General Storage

The container includes OSB flooring that provides a practical surface for furniture, boxes, tools, business inventory and other general stored goods.

The extended floor layout supports organized shelving along the container walls while maintaining an internal access aisle. Shelving and storage racks can be included as optional project accessories.

Floor loading requirements must be confirmed for machinery, heavy equipment or concentrated loads. Alternative flooring specifications may be evaluated when the project requires additional strength or moisture resistance.

Forklift-Compatible Handling

Integrated forklift pockets help simplify unloading and positioning of the empty container. They can also support future relocation when an operator needs to modify or expand the facility layout.

The 850 mm measurement shown beneath the base in the technical drawing relates to the forklift-pocket arrangement; it does not represent the width of the access door.

The container should normally be emptied before lifting. Handling must be performed by trained personnel using suitable equipment with adequate lifting capacity.

Applications for the 6 × 2 m Storage Container

The 6 × 2 m unit is intended for high-volume storage requirements, including:

• Complete household contents during moving or renovation
• Furniture, appliances and bulky personal belongings
• Commercial inventory and business stock
• E-commerce goods and packaging supplies
• Retail fixtures and seasonal merchandise
• Tools and construction equipment
• Industrial spare parts and maintenance supplies
• Event and exhibition equipment

Designed for Drive-Up Self-Storage Facilities

The 6 × 2 m unit is particularly suitable for ground-level and drive-up self-storage facilities. Customers can approach the container by vehicle, reducing the distance required to move furniture, equipment and commercial goods.

Multiple units can be installed in single or facing rows along internal access lanes. The modular layout also allows operators to add new storage capacity as occupancy and customer demand increase.

Site planning must account for vehicle circulation, turning areas, drainage, security, emergency access and all applicable planning and fire-safety requirements.
