Frequently Asked Questions

We sell 10', 20', 40' and 45' shipping containers. 20' and 40' units come in standard (8'6") and high cube (9'6") heights, with options such as double doors, open side doors and roll-up doors. Browse the full range in our shipping container collection.

One Trip containers have made a single voyage from the manufacturer and are the newest units available in the U.S. — minimal wear, smooth doors and ideal for modifications. Cargo Worthy containers are inspected and approved for international shipping and are structurally sound. Wind & Watertight containers are the most economical option: retired from shipping lines with visible wear, but guaranteed weatherproof and vermin-proof. See our container grades guide for full details.

We generally don't recommend "As Is" units unless your use doesn't require weatherproofing. They can have significant damage or structural issues, they are not covered by our warranty and they cannot be returned.

We deliver with a truck and tilt-bed trailer. The driver backs into the delivery spot, tilts the trailer and carefully lowers the container into place. For hard-to-reach places we offer crane and side-lift delivery at an additional fee — see Delivery Options.

We need about 80 feet of straight-line clearance for 10' or 20' containers and 120 feet for 40' containers. The delivery area should be flat, level and compacted so the cargo doors work properly.

Please give us 2–8 weeks notice for purchases and rentals, and sign your sales or lease agreement before delivery day. We will call on the day of delivery when the driver is en route.
