How do I know what size container I need?

Measure your equipment and compare to 20-foot (1,160 cubic feet) and 40-foot (2,385 cubic feet) containers. Use our size calculator for exact recommendations.

What is the difference between new and used containers?

New (One-Trip) containers guarantee weatherproofing but cost more. Used containers (Cargo Worthy, Wind & Water Tight) are cheaper and suitable for most uses. Condition grade determines durability and cost.

Do I need a permit for a shipping container?

Most rural agricultural properties have exemptions. Urban and residential areas may require permits. Check with your local zoning office for specific requirements.
