Thanks for the help. However I required a model that is actaully based on the container construction, as in all the different materials sizes, bends etc. The one you supplier is more a representation (i think?)

Your actually better off calling the supplier you think you will purchase this from. If your just looking so see if things will fit then all you really need is door opening sizes (most of the time centered) and internal ( bottom ) dimensions which can be found on most supplier websites. Also if your looking for something that you can mimic design and make your own, you may be better off asking for a sample CD from the supplier and then extrapolate what you actually need.
 
I only know of a few Container companies.
 
Orbis Corporation (online - shows dimensions)
Bradford
 
It sounds like your looking for a custom Bulk Bin with side door entry. 240"s is a massive bin and will most likely not be well constructed if using cut-n-weld from existing bins ( cost effective). Your best bet is a Custom Steel Rack.
 
What is this being used for, maybe with this information I can give either a better suggestion on who to look at for exactly what you need or insight on changes you could make  to what your looking for.
