Step 1 of 3
— Pick your condition
New (one-trip) or used (cargo-worthy)
Both are structurally sound and lock securely — the difference is cosmetic wear and price.
New — one-trip
Manufactured recently and shipped just once, so they look nearly pristine — minimal wear, clean interiors, and a long service life. Ideal when appearance matters or you're planning a build.
Used — cargo-worthy
Wind- and water-tight with honest cosmetic wear at the best price. Structurally sound and ready for on-site storage or job-site use the day they arrive.

— FAQ
Buying a container — FAQs
What's the difference between new and used containers?
New (one-trip) containers have made a single cargo voyage and look nearly pristine. Used (cargo-worthy) containers are wind- and water-tight with honest cosmetic wear at a lower price. Both are structurally sound for storage.
How much does a shipping container cost?
Used 20' containers start around $1,800 and new one-trip 20' containers start around $3,500, with 40' and high-cube options priced higher. We show real starting prices — never "call for price."
What's the difference between standard and high-cube?
High-cube containers are a foot taller (9'6" vs 8'6"), giving you extra headroom for tall equipment, shelving, or comfortable workshop and office conversions.
How is the container delivered and how much clearance do I need?
We deliver on a tilt-bed truck. Plan for roughly the container length plus the truck — about 60 feet of straight clearance for a 20' and more for a 40' — on firm, level ground. We'll review your site with you before delivery.
Which way do the doors face when delivered?
You choose. Tell us whether you want the doors at the front or rear of the placement and we'll set it down accordingly.
Can you modify a container?
Yes — doors, windows, vents, electrical, and custom builds are available. Tell us your plan and we'll quote the modifications.
