New 20ft Standard Open Side Shipping Container in Minneapolis, Minnesota Description
New 20ft open side container for Minneapolis, Minnesota
The open side container exists to solve one problem: the width of the standard end door. When your load is wider than 7' 8.125", or when a forklift needs to approach from the side rather than the end, the standard format stops working. The open side format removes the door-width constraint by opening the entire side of the container.
Buyers in Minneapolis, Minnesota searching for a conex container, a 20ft storage container, or a new one-trip open side shipping container for sale will find this unit covers all of those categories.
One-trip condition: near-new, clean factory interior, fresh hardware throughout. Wind and watertight when the side panel is closed and latched. At 160 sq ft and 1,169 cu ft, the interior dimensions match a standard 20ft — the difference is lateral access.
Rush delivery can be added to your order if the standard lead time doesn't work for your project.

Alice Oliver
Wide equipment wouldn't clear a standard end door. Ordering process was straightforward — no back and forth. Driver called day-of and gave me a two-hour window. Showed up in it. A full winter in and the interior is still bone dry.

Event stage container. Open side is the performance face. Quote matched the final invoice — no surprise charges. Security and weatherproofing have both been solid.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How secure are the doors?
It offers strong steel security when closed. For higher security needs, a lockbox upgrade is a common add-on. If you store items in sections, this style can reduce wasted movement.
Can I use this for outdoor storage year-round?
Outdoor placement is common. A level foundation and good drainage around the site help long-term performance. Many buyers choose the open side layout to keep storage organized.
What’s the difference between open side and side door designs?
The open side design is ideal for wide access and display. Side doors are better for quick access to sections without opening the entire side. A simple site-prep check before delivery usually prevents most placement issues.
Is the container wind and watertight when closed?
When properly shut and latched, the container is wind and watertight for reliable storage. For best results, keep the placement area level and the doors fully latched after use.
Will the doors operate smoothly with frequent use?
Yes. With normal use, doors should operate smoothly. A level base and occasional maintenance keep them working well. If you store items in sections, this style can reduce wasted movement.
How does side access change day-to-day storage?
Side access makes organization easier because you can reach items stored along the length without unloading everything from the end. For best results, keep the placement area level and the doors fully latched after use.
Do you deliver to nearby suburbs outside the city?
We deliver throughout the metro area and many nearby suburbs. Exact coverage depends on route planning and site access. The 20ft Standard Open Side is popular for commercial storage where access matters.
How should I place the container to protect the floor and keep doors aligned?
Keeping the base level protects long-term door alignment. Drainage and stable ground matter more than most people expect. A simple site-prep check before delivery usually prevents most placement issues.
