What Is a Double-Wide Container Garage?

Unlike single-container garage options, the double-wide container garage configuration provides realistic door clearance. A double-wide container garage combines two standard containers — typically two 20-ft units or two 40-ft units — arranged side by side to create a wide, open structure. Once the center wall is cut and reinforced, you're left with a single open bay that comfortably fits two full-size vehicles, trucks, SUVs, or a work area.

Frequently Asked Questions

1
How wide is a double-wide container garage?
A standard double-width configuration uses two 20-foot containers, resulting in an external width of approximately 16 feet. Once the internal framing is complete, there is enough space to park two standard-sized vehicles side by side, with ample room to open the doors. We also offer wider custom configurations.
2
Can a double-width container garage accommodate two full-size trucks?
Yes, provided the configuration is appropriate. Placing two 40-foot containers side by side provides approximately 40 feet of depth and a clear internal width of 14–15 feet. This is sufficient to accommodate two full-size pickup trucks. For very wide vehicles (such as trucks with raised chassis or dual-rear-wheel pickup trucks), we recommend customizing a wider specification.
3
What is the Foundation of the Double-wide Container Garage?
A level concrete slab or compacted gravel pad is required. Dimensions should match or slightly exceed your container footprint.
4
Do I need a building permit for a container garage?
Permit requirements depend on the local regulations in your area. Many local authorities classify container structures as temporary or accessory structures, but some jurisdictions may require a full building permit. We always recommend that you consult your local planning or building department before installation.
5
How long does it take to install a double-wide container garage?
Once your foundation is ready and the containers are delivered, installation typically takes one to three days for a standard configuration. Custom modifications completed at our factory mean minimal on-site work.
6
Can the double-wide container garage be relocated?
Yes. One of the biggest advantages of container construction is portability. If you move or need to reposition the structure, it can be loaded onto a flatbed and transported to a new site. Foundation work will be required at the new location.
