FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT BUYING A CONTAINER
How much do Containers cost?
The price of a Container for Sale depends on a few variables:
- LOCATION The great thing about a Container is that they can be delivered practically anywhere. We deliver to Businesses and Job sites in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. Because transportation cost is the main factor that affects the price difference from one region to the next, you can expect the cost to Rent or Buy to be 10-20% lower the nearer you are to a major port city. Final delivery costs vary from city to city, but usually end up being $2-3 per mile.
- SIZE & TYPE Conex come in standard dimensions that are 8 feet wide and either 10′, 20′, or 40′ long. See our Container Dimensions chart for reference. The more common and available the container size/type, the lower the price will be. Due to global supply chain fluctuations, some years used 40' containers are the cheapest of all, and other years (like in 2021) they are more expensive.
- 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 have 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).
What are Containers made of?
ISO Containers (often called Conex Boxes in Industrial or Military settings) are made of thick Corten steel, with wood floor and heavy rubber door gaskets. They are built for storage, built to be moved, and built to last.
Are Container Floors safe?
Practically every good, food, and textile makes its way around the world in a Shipping Container. Thanks in large part to the country of Australia, newer container floors are constructed without the use of harmful pesticides. Newer container floors feature a marine-grade plywood that is made from a variety of hardwoods or bamboo. Container floors are water-resistant and exceptionally durable.
How Long do Containers Last?
The modern Shipping Container was invented in the 1950’s and has been continuously improved in the years since. Because they are built to withstand the harshest ocean conditions, containers are built to last for many years. It is quite common to see a 20-year-old container that looks in nearly brand-new condition, or to see a 40-years-old container that is still functioning well. As with any structure, when you own a container, you will want to make sure to keep it clean, painted, and maintained in order to maximize its life-span.
