The cost to buy a container depends on 3 factors:

  • LOCATION. Transportation cost is the main factor that affects the price difference from one region to the next. Expect the cost to Rent or Buy a container to be 10-20% lower the nearer you are to a major port city such as Seattle or Tacoma. Final delivery costs vary from city to city, but typically range from $2-4* per mile.
  • SIZE & TYPE. The more common and available the container size/type, the lower the price will be. Standard height containers in the dimensions of 20-foot and 40-foot long are the most common sizes. 
  • CONDITION & AGE. Most new containers have only made one trip across the ocean. As such, they are generally in much better cosmetic condition and more valuable. Most used containers are 12 or more years old (sometimes 30 or more years old) and have made many voyages across the ocean and on trucks and trains. As such, they are generally less expensive (often 20-40% less than a brand new container).

* Note: Because shipping containers are heavily influenced by the price of steel, wood, fuel, and labor, all prices, including delivery rates, are subject to change without notice.
