40 Foot Shipping Container
A new 40 foot shipping container can often come in light gray or tan color. The nice thing about starting with a brand new Box is that since it has just made one trip across the ocean (called a “one-tripper” in the container industry), it typically has little to no dings, dents, or rust. A new 40 foot shipping container is typically cleaner and has several years of cargo-worthy certification (they can be shipped overseas).
Used 40 Foot Container
Our used 40 foot shipping container typically can come in dark red, blue, or green color. Our 40 foot Container is available in both standard height (8′ 6″) or “High Cube” (one foot taller at 9′ 6″). Because these containers have made many trips across the ocean, roadways, and railways, expect them to have plenty of dings, dents, and scratches. A used 40 foot shipping container can be re-certified for shipping overseas (called “Cargo-worthy” in the container industry), but must be surveyed and certified cargo-worthy prior to purchase.
