Before delivery

Get your site ready

The one thing that matters most is a level spot, so the doors never bind. Gravel, decomposed granite, footings, or a slab all work. We check access ahead of time and walk you through it.

How much does a shipping container cost?

In the yard today, a used 20ft shipping container starts at $2,500, a new one trip 20ft at $3,950, a used 40ft high cube at $2,870 and a new one trip 40ft at $4,200. Those are starting prices, plus tax. Container prices track the steel and shipping markets, so call or send the form to verify today’s price.

Are used shipping containers worth buying?

Yes, if it is cargo worthy. Cargo worthy is a real standard, not a sales word. The container is structurally sound, the floor is solid, the doors seal, and it is wind and water tight. It has spent ten to fifteen years crossing oceans, so expect dents, scrapes and surface rust outside. Inside it is dry and ready to use. Rusted through panels never make it into the yard.
