Twice the floor space of a 20ft in the same 8-foot width. The workhorse size for contractors, farms, and businesses across Missouri, delivered with the price included.
The 40ft standard container offers roughly 2,350 cubic feet of interior space, twice that of the 20ft conex box, in the same 8-foot width. It is the workhorse container for construction companies, agricultural operations, and any business that moves or stores significant volumes of material. Weighing up whether to rent or buy this size? See our rent vs buy guide.
A 40ft needs a longer approach for delivery than a 20ft. For farms, construction sites, and commercial properties with the access to receive it, the 40ft is the most cost-efficient option per cubic foot of storage. Available in used WWT and one-trip. Our container condition guide has the full grade breakdown.

Delivery included. Missouri delivered pricing: starting at $2,332 for a 20ft Wind and Water Tight container delivered in St. Louis. Price always includes delivery.
Rail and intermodal overflow around the Kansas City yards and the St. Louis barge terminals, where owned ground storage beats per diem on a steamship line's box and floor space is committed years at a time.
Vehicle assembly supplier storage around the Wentzville plant in St. Charles County and the Claycomo plant in Clay County, holding racks, dunnage, fixtures and returnable packaging at the yard rather than inside the building.
Equipment and implement storage on row crop operations through the Missouri and Mississippi bottoms, Little Dixie and the Bootheel, where there is room to work and most placements are a straight pull off a county road.
Gin, elevator and irrigation contractor storage across Dunklin, Pemiscot, New Madrid, Stoddard and Mississippi counties, ahead of a harvest that runs hard from late September into November.
Warehouse and dock overflow along the I-70, I-44 and I-35 corridors, and around the Springfield distribution corridor, where a container gives seasonal room without signing for square footage nobody needs in March.
Quarry, mine and heavy contractor storage across the Lead Belt, the St. Francois Mountains and the aggregate operations that run in nearly every Missouri county, where a lockable steel box on a rough site outlasts anything built on the spot.
