Regular maintenance of your container will ensure it is in good condition and ready to use at all times.

Also, check the drain lines and connections to make sure they are functioning properly.

If you have a tunnel shipping container that has an original cargo door at each side, it's a good idea to clean the doors and lock area on a regular basis. This will stop the buildup of dirt and grime which could lead to rusting of the doors. You should also regularly lubricate the door hinges, as these can become stiff over time.

For a more thorough maintenance schedule, you must be sure to inspect the roof of your container to make sure that there is no standing water or ice building up. Ponding water will cause your container to bend or flex and can also weaken the metal roof. It's a good idea also to remove any debris on the roof frequently like leaves or twigs that can accumulate over time.

Also, ensure that your container is equipped with adequate ventilation, as this can aid in preventing condensation and protect you from mildew and mould. Regularly clean the doors and windows to keep them clear of dust and grime. Also, make sure the seals are in good shape.

It is crucial to adhere to the guidelines and instructions given by the manufacturer in regards to maintaining your container. You should also consult with a professional before carrying out any modifications or repairs to your container, since this will ensure that the work is completed properly and in compliance with the regulations.
