Frequently Asked Questions

What condition grades do you sell?

We disclose a condition grade on every unit: One-Trip (near-new, shipped once), Cargo-Worthy (CW) (certified, structurally sound, suitable for export), Wind & Water Tight (WWT) (used, dry storage grade), and As-Is (sold as described). One-trip is the closest to new; used grades show normal cosmetic wear.

Can I really buy a container or trailer online?

Yes. Unlike most sellers, we let you reserve and pay online. Choose a unit, check out, and we confirm stock and arrange delivery. No quote wall required.

How do I pay?

We accept secure card payment via an emailed pay-link and wire transfer, those are the two payment methods we offer. Your container or trailer is reserved the moment you place your order. See our Payment Options.

Do you deliver to my area?

We deliver to all 50 US states via regional depot partners, and delivery and placement are free. Most contiguous-US orders process in 2-3 business days and then run 3-7 business days in transit. Alaska and Hawaii take 5 to 10 business days and are still free. See Delivery & Coverage for how it works and site requirements.

What if my container or trailer arrives damaged?

Inspect your unit at delivery. If it arrives damaged, defective, or not as described, tell us, transit damage within 48 hours with photos, defective or not-as-described within 30 days. We cover accepted returns in full: no restocking fee, we arrange and pay the return freight, and refunds are issued within 5-10 business days of inspection. We do not offer change-of-mind returns or standard exchanges. Full details are on our Returns & Refund Policy.

What size container do I need?

20ft and 40ft are the most popular. A 20ft holds roughly the contents of a 2-3 bedroom home; a 40ft doubles that. High-cube units add a foot of interior height. Not sure? Ask our team.

Can containers be modified?

Yes, many of our container homes, offices, cabins and restroom blocks are pre-built. For custom doors, windows, insulation or HVAC, contact us with your requirements.

Do you sell trailers as well as containers?

Yes. Alongside shipping containers and container buildings, we stock utility, dump, enclosed cargo, car hauler, gooseneck, equipment and aluminum trailers, plus truck beds and powersport haulers. Trailers get the same deal as our containers: published prices, free delivery to all 50 states, and our damaged-or-defective full-refund policy. Browse all trailers.

Is there a warranty?

Yes. See our Warranty page for coverage details by product type.
