What types of shipping containers do you sell?
We offer a wide range of containers including standard height, high cube, open tops, open sides (with 2 or 4 doors), and full open side units. Sizes include 20 ft and 40 ft containers, available in both used and one-trip condition.
Are your containers new or used?
We sell both one-trip (like new) and used containers:
One-trip containers: Shipped once from the factory, clean, and in excellent condition.
Used containers: More affordable and still fully wind- and water-tight, with normal cosmetic wear.
How do I decide between new (one-trip) and used containers?
Choose one-trip containers if appearance and longevity are priorities—for example, if the container will be placed in a visible location, used for retail/storage with customers, or for long-term shipping.
Choose used containers if you need a cost-effective solution for storage, job sites, or projects where looks aren’t as important as functionality.
How do I choose between a 20 ft and a 40 ft container?
20 ft containers are best for smaller spaces, lighter loads, or when maneuverability during delivery is a concern.
40 ft containers offer twice the space at a lower cost per square foot, making them ideal when you have room on-site and need maximum storage or shipping capacity.
How do I send a container overseas?
We can provide containers with valid CSC certification, which is required for international shipping. Each certified container is inspected by a trusted third-party surveyor to ensure it meets international standards for safe overseas transport.
Can I pick up a container myself?
Yes. Customers may pick up directly from our Newark, NJ facility. Our team can assist with loading.
Do you offer delivery?
Yes. We can arrange delivery throughout New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and surrounding regions. Delivery costs depend on distance and site conditions.
How much space do I need for delivery?
A 20 ft container requires about 75 ft of straight clearance for the truck.
A 40 ft container requires 100–120 ft of clearance.
Ground should be level and firm for safe unloading.
How can I pay for my container?
We accept the following payment methods:
Cash
Wire Transfer
Certified/Cashier's Check
Credit/Debit Card
Zelle
Full payment is required before pickup or delivery.
