Bunded Containers for Sale — 10 x 8ft Flat Floor Bunded Store
Looking for bunded containers with built-in spill containment for chemical or hazardous material storage? This is exactly what you need. The 10 x 8ft Flat Floor Bunded Store features a fully integrated containment bund built directly into the floor — capturing any liquid spills before they reach the surrounding environment. Moreover, the flat floor design allows drums, IBCs, and trolleys to roll in and out without ramps or raised thresholds. Furthermore, it ships directly from our inventory to your property across Tennessee and surrounding states with fast delivery and no hidden fees.
In fact, bunded containers are the industry-standard solution for businesses required to store chemicals, fuels, and hazardous liquids in compliance with environmental protection and workplace safety regulations.
What Is a Bunded Container?
A bunded container is a storage unit built with an integrated secondary containment system — commonly called a bund — built into the floor. Specifically, this bund is a raised perimeter tray that surrounds the entire floor area. As a result, any liquid that spills or leaks from drums, IBCs, or containers inside the unit is captured within the bund rather than escaping into the surrounding environment.
Furthermore, bunded chemical storage containers are specifically designed to meet environmental protection requirements for hazardous liquid storage. Consequently, they are widely used by businesses required to demonstrate secondary containment capability for chemicals, fuels, lubricants, and other liquid hazardous materials.
According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), secondary containment for hazardous liquid storage is a legal requirement in many commercial and industrial contexts — making a containment bund not just best practice but a regulatory necessity for many Tennessee businesses.

Why Flat Floor Matters for Bunded Chemical Storage Containers
Standard bunded units often feature a raised floor threshold — meaning drums, IBCs, and wheeled equipment must be lifted or ramped over the bund lip to enter. In contrast, this flat floor bunded container eliminates the threshold entirely. Consequently, drum handlers, pallet trucks, and trolleys roll directly in and out without lifting — significantly reducing manual handling risk.
Furthermore, flat floor access is a specific requirement in many workplace health and safety assessments for chemical storage facilities. As a result, the flat floor design is preferred by safety officers, environmental compliance managers, and logistics coordinators across Tennessee’s industrial and manufacturing sectors.
In addition, the flat floor configuration makes internal cleaning and bund inspection significantly easier than raised-floor alternatives. Therefore, routine maintenance and compliance inspections take less time and effort.
Spill Containment Bund — How It Works
The spill containment bund in this unit is integrated directly into the steel floor structure. Specifically, it works as follows:
First, chemicals, fuels, or liquids are stored inside the container in drums, IBCs, or other vessels. Second, if a vessel leaks or spills, the liquid drains to the bund — the recessed containment area built into the floor perimeter. Third, the bund retains the spilled liquid completely — preventing it from reaching drains, groundwater, or surrounding soil.
Furthermore, this unit’s bund is sized to capture 110% of the volume of the largest single container stored inside — the standard capacity requirement for chemical storage secondary containment in the USA. Consequently, it meets the containment volume requirements for most commercial and industrial chemical storage applications across Tennessee.
Moreover, the containment bund can be drained and cleaned using the standard bund drain valve — keeping the unit compliant and ready for inspection at all times.
Bunded Chemical Containers — What Can Be Stored Inside?
Bunded chemical containers and bunded storage units are suitable for a wide range of liquid hazardous materials. In fact, here are the most common substances stored in bunded units across Tennessee:

Do I need a permit for a bunded container in Tennessee?
In most Tennessee counties, a permit is required if the container will remain on your property permanently. However, the specific compliance requirements for chemical storage vary by substance type and volume. Therefore, we recommend consulting both your local county codes office and the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) to confirm requirements for your specific storage application.
What chemicals can be stored in a bunded container?
Bunded chemical storage containers are suitable for fuels, solvents, acids, alkalis, agricultural chemicals, lubricants, waste oils, and paint products.
