This 8m x 2.1m end-linked flat pack container bundle consists of two 4m galvanised steel flat pack storage units and one end linking kit, assembled end-on-end to create a combined internal storage length of 7.56m — sufficient for long materials such as pipes, timber, ladders, and sports equipment that a standard 4m unit could not accommodate. This is not a standard ISO shipping container — it is a purpose-built flat pack storage structure with a powder-coated green finish, designed for manual assembly in locations where crane or forklift access is unavailable or impractical, including residential gardens, indoor facilities, and restricted commercial sites.

Assembly requires a team of 4 to 6 people — no heavy machinery is needed. The heaviest individual component when dismantled is 337 lbs (153 kg), and the full flat-packed bundle weighs 1,856 lbs (842 kg) in total. The flat-packed dimensions of 12.7ft × 7ft × 1.97ft (3,880 × 2,140 × 600mm) allow the bundle to be transported on a standard flatbed or enclosed trailer without specialist logistics. Once assembled, the two units are connected using the included end linking kit, which joins the units in a single direction — containers in this system can only be joined end-on-end or side-by-side within the same structure, not in both directions simultaneously.

The green powder-coated finish is applied over the galvanised steel panels, providing corrosion resistance and a low-visibility aesthetic suited to residential gardens, sports club grounds, and other environments where a standard steel or corrugated container finish would be visually intrusive. The floor is 15mm OSB board — appropriate for light storage of tools, equipment, sporting goods, and materials, but not rated for forklift or heavy pallet loading. The door opening (4.1ft wide × 6.2ft tall / 1.25m × 1.88m) allows entry of most standard workshop and storage items.

Additional units in 2m, 3m, and 4m sizes can be linked in compatible configurations to extend total storage length further — contact JK Shipping LLC to discuss multi-unit configurations for your specific requirements.
