Shelters for 6m long containers

Cheap shipping container shelters vs. HAGRO shelters

Cheap shipping container shelters may look like a good deal in terms of price, but in practice they have a very limited lifespan and poor durability. They usually last only 1–2 seasons and often do not survive a single harsh winter, which really tests their strength and resilience. HAGRO shipping container shelters are designed for long-term use, high durability and reliability in everyday operation. We use quality materials and sturdy frames that handle even demanding weather conditions without problems.

 Cheap container shelter

  • They often collapse under snow or wind after the very first winter
  • Thin PE or PVC tarpaulins (300 – 500 g/m²) have low tear resistance and quickly become brittle
  • The frame is undersized (wider gaps between beams), often without surface treatment
  • It poses a risk of damage to stored materials, machinery or other property kept under the roof

HAGRO container shelter

  • Reliably withstands snow, wind and extreme weather
  • A long-term solution with a long lifespan and minimal maintenance
  • High-quality PVC tarpaulin (750–900 g/m²) with a lifespan of more than 20 years, resistant to tearing, frost and UV radiation
  • A robust, fully galvanised steel frame with more closely spaced beams

Frequently asked questions

If the product is in stock, delivery usually takes 1–5 days. Installation itself depends on the size of the building. Small and medium-sized shelters for 6m long containers can be assembled within a single day; for larger projects the installation time may extend to two or three days.

The lifespan of these structures depends on two main elements – the load-bearing steel frame and the cover itself.
The steel frame has a lifespan of more than 20 years, and considerably longer with good maintenance.
A 650 g/m² tarpaulin lasts 15 to 20 years, the 900 g/m² version approximately 20 to 25 years.
The overall lifespan of products such as shelters for 6m long containers is also affected by how they are used, maintained and how well the tarpaulin is tensioned.

As a general rule, shelters for 6m long containers withstand wind speeds of up to 100 km/h. The PVC tarpaulin can also handle a fair amount of snow, but if the layer exceeds 10 cm we recommend removing it. This prevents excessive load on the frame and extends the life of the material.

Yes, shelters for 6m long containers can be relocated at any time if needed. Simply dismantle the frame, move it to the new location and assemble it again. Relocation is straightforward and requires no special equipment.
