Once your container is placed and protected, the next question is: How do you organize the inside?
Shipping containers have limited square footage, but plenty of vertical space. The best way to take full advantage of your container's interior is with strong, modular shelving that can keep your tools, materials, or inventory organized and off the floor.
CMW's Instant Shelving Brackets
The Instant Shelving Bracket kit is designed to mount directly to the container’s D-rings, giving you strong, adjustable shelves without drilling into the walls. The boltless design makes assembly quick, and the system can be customized to fit different container sizes.
Use it when:
- You’re looking for a no-weld, no-drill shelving solution.
- You want adjustable shelves for tools, boxes, or parts.
- You need a system that installs fast and can be reconfigured easily.
CMW's Bolt-On Shelving Brackets
For bigger, heavier loads, Bolt-On Shelving Brackets provide the strength you need. Built from thicker steel, they allow you to create shelving capable of holding serious weight by bolting onto your struts.
Use it when:
- You’re storing heavy tools, parts, or equipment.
- You need reliable shelving that won’t bend under pressure.
- You want a more permanent storage solution inside your container.
Shipping containers make great storage units, but without shelving, you’re only using half the space. CMW’s shelving systems are simple, durable, and designed specifically for containers, making them the easiest way to add functionality to your build.
