40ft Shipping Container

From $2,362.00Plus tax & delivery fee — confirmed before you pay
Condition
Used — Wind & Water Tight (WWT)Best Value

Inspected door-to-door before it leaves our yard: hinges, gaskets, locking rods, roof seams and floor. A container only earns the WWT grade once we have confirmed there is no active water intrusion and the structure is sound. It is a used container, so expect cosmetic dents, surface rust spotting or faded paint — none of which affect its ability to keep your belongings dry and secure.

Overview

Details

A 40ft shipping container doubles the floor space of a 20ft — about 300 square feet — for well under twice the price, which makes it the cheapest secure storage per square foot we sell. It is the standard choice for contractors storing tools and materials on site and for farms consolidating equipment under one lock. It needs the room to match: a tilt-bed delivery wants roughly 100 feet of straight, level approach to set one down. This one is Wind & Water Tight: a used container we have inspected and confirmed is dry and structurally sound, with the cosmetic wear you would expect from a working cargo box. It has the original factory cargo doors on one end, which is the standard configuration and the most economical.

What we stand behind

Our Guarantee

Wind & Water Tight is our own inspection standard: doors, gaskets, seams, roof and floor checked, with no active water intrusion and no structural fault. It is a used container sold on its condition — dents, surface rust and faded paint are normal and are not defects.

What people use them for

Common Uses

Construction and job-site storage300 square feet of lockable steel takes a full complement of tools, materials and small plant, and the doors are rated for the weather that closes a jobsite.
Residential and backyard storageFurniture, seasonal equipment, boats and bikes, out of the weather and behind a lock, without a monthly self-storage bill or a drive across town to reach it.
Agricultural and farm storageFeed, tack, fencing and implements stay dry and stay rodent-resistant. Steel walls and a sealed floor are a different proposition from a pole shed.
Long-term outdoor storageCorten weathering steel is built to sit outside for decades. Cosmetic rust is the surface doing its job, not the container failing.
Getting it there

Delivery & Site Prep

Your 40ft Standard is delivered on a tilt-bed truck. The bed raises, the container slides off the back, and the driver pulls forward out from under it — which is why the space behind the drop point matters as much as the space it will sit in. The delivery fee is worked out from the haul distance to your site and, along with sales tax, is not included in the price above — both are confirmed with your quote before you pay.

We deliver containers across Florida and Georgia

Hauled from whichever of our seven lots is nearest you — six in Florida and one in Waycross, Georgia. Just outside those two states? Call us — we will tell you straight away whether we can help.

  • WaycrossSoutheast Georgia
Straight approachAbout 100 ft of straight, clear run behind the drop point for a 40' container, and about 60 ft for a 20'. The truck tilts and reverses out from under the container, so it needs the length.
WidthAt least 12 ft of clear width, with no fence posts or raised beds.
OverheadAt least 16 ft of overhead clearance the whole way in — the bed tilts high before the container touches down. Watch for branches and wires.
GroundFirm and reasonably level. Gravel, compacted dirt and concrete all work; soft sand and saturated ground do not, and a loaded truck will sink.
BlockingWe recommend setting the container on blocks or railroad ties at the corners to keep the floor off wet ground and let it drain.

Short version: 100 ft of straight approach, 12 ft wide, 16 ft overhead, firm and level. If you are not sure your site works, send us a photo before you order — it is free, and a failed delivery is not.

DJ came highly recommended, and I’m so glad we went with him for our metal building! From start to finish, he made the entire process simple and stress-free. He answered all of my questions, took the time to go over everything with me, and made sure I understood the process every step of the way. The building was completed on time, just as expected, and we couldn’t be happier with the finished product. I truly appreciate the professionalism, communication, and quality of work. I would highly recommend DJ to anyone looking for a metal building. You won’t be disappointed!

Joey was extremely helpful and professional. Very easy process, we applied yesterday and the building is on our property today. The installers were also very friendly got the building installed and anchored in no time. Definitely will be calling them again for our next building. Hands down the best in town.

Why buy from us

Why Keen's

We grade them ourselvesEvery container is inspected door-to-door in our own yard before it is offered, and again before it goes on the truck. A container that does not meet the grade on the page does not ship as that grade.
Seven lots, two statesContainers are heavy and hauling is the expensive part. Buying from a lot near you is what keeps the delivered price down, and it is why we run seven of them — six across Florida and one in Waycross, Georgia — rather than one.
No surprises on the invoiceThe price on this page is the container. Tax and the delivery fee are confirmed with your quote before you pay anything, because delivery depends on where you are and what the truck has to get through.
Family-owned since 1999The same business, in the same place, for more than twenty-six years. If something is wrong with what we deliver, there is someone here to call about it.
