Shipping Container Parts Storage Layouts

[Lionelgee]

Hello All,

After trying to do what should have been a very quick and simple job in my shed I have decided to get a shipping container as an interim measure.

What dimensions for concrete pads would be used to sit a 20 or 40 foot shipping container on?

The arrangement would be something like having the concrete pads positioned inside a timber edge. The timber will retain a layer of weedmat and gravel to prevent weeds growing under and around the container

After today's travails - I want to have everything that is currently stored on the shed floor moved out. If it cannot fit on a pallet rack; or on my shelving units - out the shed doors it goes. Such things as engines mounted on engine stands and dollys. Plus bonnets (engine hoods), truck doors and a ride-on mower.

Stuff I currently have to lean over, move around ... or trip over ... to try and reach something that should be easy to get to that is stored away. I just filled up my swear jar by the way... Plus, the dog and cat are in hiding - while covering their ears.

Kind regards
Lionel
