10Ft Containers for Sale
Short on space but still need lockable steel? Our 10ft containers pack a full 8ft of width and 8'6" of height into a footprint that drops onto a tight backyard, jobsite corner or rooftop. Stock runs from brand-new one-trip units to reefers, workshops and high-security office conversions.
10ft Shipping Containers Built for Tight Spaces
A 10ft container measures roughly 10' long by 8' wide by 8'6" tall, giving you around 560 cubic feet of bone-dry, lockable storage in a unit a tilt-bed truck can squeeze almost anywhere. That makes it the go-to when a 20ft box simply won't fit - think narrow side yards, equipment compounds, marina docks or a homeowner who just needs a secure shed that won't rot. The doors carry the same cam-locking hardware as a full-size container, so security doesn't shrink with the footprint. Current stock ranges from about $2,100 up to $8,730, covering plain storage units, bunded chemical stores, 10ft reefers and finished office conversions, so there's a unit here whether you're stashing lawn gear or running a small cold-storage operation.
What People Actually Do With a 10ft Box
- Backyard tool and equipment storage with marine-grade ply floors and cam-locking doors
- Compact site offices and workshops, some fitted with windows, lighting and shelving
- 10ft refrigerated cells for catering, florists or small-batch cold storage
- Rigging lofts, tackle stores and bunded units for fuels and chemicals
- Secure overflow at home when the garage and shed are already full
Buying Tips Before You Order a 10ft Container
Decide on condition first. One-trip units look near-new and suit visible or customer-facing setups; cargo-worthy and wind-and-water-tight used boxes cost less and work fine for pure storage where a few dents don't matter. Check your gate width and overhead clearance - the truck tilts the bed up to slide the container off, so it needs a clear straight run with no low branches or wires in the way. Set the box on a few railroad ties, gravel or pavers so air moves underneath and the floor stays dry. Every order ships with our flat $500 delivery to any of the 50 states, units are inspected before they leave the yard, and you're covered by our 30-day return policy if something isn't right.
Stepping Up or Sideways
If you outgrow ten feet, the next step up is usually a 20ft container, which doubles your floor space for storage and double-door access. For purpose-built lock-ups, browse our storage containers, and confirm exact interior measurements on the container dimensions page. Not sure which grade fits your budget? Request a quote and we'll match you to in-stock inventory.
One more thing worth knowing: a 10ft unit holds its value and resale well precisely because the size is in demand and supply is limited compared to 20 and 40ft boxes, which roll off ships by the thousand. If your plans might grow, you can always start with a 10ft for a tight spot now and add a second later. Stock here moves quickly, especially the reefer and finished-office builds, so order while the unit you want is on the lot.
