Hazardous material storage containers are designed to hold, store and/or transport hazardous materials. Many types of products are available. Examples include bags, barrels, bottles, boxes, cabinets, cans, carrying cases, coolers, drums, envelopes, and folders. ATA cases are manufactured to meet the requirements of the Air Transportation Association (ATA), a trade organization for major airlines. Cylinders are pressure tanks for the containment, storage and/or transportation of gases. Garages have large entry doors and are designed to store machinery or transportation equipment. Shelters are structures for housing and protecting instrumentation or personnel. Both indoor and outdoor configurations are available. Intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) have a capacity of not more than three cubic meters and are suitable for mechanical handling. ISO containers are used for the intermodal transport of freight. These hazardous material storage containers are manufactured according to specifications from the International Standards Organization (ISO) and are suitable for multiple transportation methods such as truck and rail, or rail and ship. Hazardous material storage containers are made many different materials. Examples include aluminum, foam, glass, paper, plastic, steel, stainless steel and wood. Acrylics are available in a wide range of colors, thicknesses, and sizes. Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) is a hard, rigid, thermoplastic polymer that provides good chemical and creep resistance as well as dimensional stability. Polyethylene (PE) is a semi-crystalline, whitish, semi-opaque thermoplastic that is soft, flexible and tough. It has outstanding electrical properties, but poor temperature resistance. Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic material with excellent cold flow, bi-axial strength, and yield elongation properties. It is similar to polyvinyl chloride (PVC), but can be used in exposed applications because of its resistance to ultraviolet (UV) light, weathering, and ozone. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an insoluble compound that exhibits a high degree of chemical resistance and a low coefficient of friction.

Hazardous material storage containers vary in terms of dimensions, applications, and features. Dimensions include height, depth or length, and width or diameter. Measured in gallons, capacity is the maximum volume that containers are designed to hold. Some hazardous material storage containers are suitable for general-purpose, material handling, packaging, or shipping applications. Others are designed for the containment, storage and transportation of chemicals, trash, recycling materials, fuel or oil. In terms of features, containers may include handles, wheels, or rollers; provide double walls for increased pressure or containment requirements; or feature an air handling system with vents. Insulated hazardous material storage containers are used for storing or transporting perishable goods such as food or blood. Moisture resistant products provide some degree of protection from the surrounding environment, but are not necessarily impervious to that environment. Heavy duty, outdoor suitable, temperature controlled, and corrosion resistant devices are commonly available.
