New or Used

Crossed the ocean once, then went into a depot. It may have a few small dings and dents. The right pick for anything customer-facing or converted.

Visible surface rust, and maybe dings, patches, and dents, but no holes or leaks. The heavy doors can take extra force to open and close. Lower cost than new, built for farms, yards, and job sites.

Wind and watertight (WWT) inspected options available.

We deliver to all 48 contiguous states, usually in 1 to 2 weeks, with a rush option if you need it sooner. Every container, even a 20', arrives on a 40-foot trailer, so the site needs room for one. Have your own truck? Pick it up at the depot.

We quote the container and delivery to your ZIP as one delivered price, anywhere in the lower 48.
