The TMG-DT3040C Dual Truss Container Shelter is a larger, rugged version of the DT3020C, offering double the coverage area for operators who need extended space. With a 9 m x 12 m footprint and robust steel framing, this shelter provides over 110 m² of dry, covered storage suspended between two 40 ft containers. Designed for the Australian market, its durable galvanized dual truss structure resists corrosion and structural fatigue. The shelter is covered by a triple-layer 580 gsm PVC fabric that is flame-retardant, UV-protected, and 100% waterproof. Built to handle outdoor environments across the country—from bush to outback—this container-mounted shelter is a reliable option for farms, industrial yards, and construction operations. It’s also easy to install using basic tools and all included mounting hardware.
