*Please allow for a tolerance of up to 6 inches (152mm) on Cut Down container lengths. These measurements may vary due to the construction and cut down process, where we may need to cut either side of the steel bearers. For our New Build containers allow for a tolerance of up to 0.39 inches (10mm). Please inform us with your order if you have specific requirements within the tolerance.
