A shipping container (10, fig. 2) includes a header rail 26 for a wall of the shipping container that provides a mounting surface 40 for vents 30. The mounting surface is recessed relative to an outermost external surface of a second wall of the container, such that the vents mounted to the header rail are exposed and set back from the outermost surface 17 of the wall of another shipping container 10. Accordingly, the shipping containers 10 can be located in a close end-to-end arrangement whilst still providing exposed vents. The area of the storage site is then able to be used to the maximum extent. Also disclosed is a storage facility comprising a first and a second shipping container as described, wherein the second wall of the first shipping container is located adjacent to the second wall of the second shipping container such that a ventilation gap is defined between the or each vent on the first shipping container and the or each vent of the second shipping container.
