The cost of a shipping container will depend on the market, and what the current demand is like. Prices will also depend on grade, whether they are used, refurbished or brand new. For the current price on a shipping container including delivery to your site please contact us.

You can store a shipping container at your site or on your property if desired. Otherwise, there are container yards that will store them for you. They can be secured with a padlock, or a lockbox can be installed for extra security.

Yes – over time, a shipping container’s surface will rust, especially if it is near the ocean. This won’t affect the contents though, and if you maintain it well you can forestall weather damage.

A transporter with the appropriate equipment can move a shipping container. If your container is empty, or is full and has fork pockets, a transporter may use a tilt tray to pull it up, or even lift it over fences with a crane.

We use deck trucks and trucks with tilt trailers to deliver your shipping container. They both maneuver differently, so you’ll want to be prepared and make sure you have room on-site for one or the other. You can speak with your sales rep to understand which one is coming to you.
