A used shipping container is a decommissioned, ex-shipping line unit that has been used for cargo transport more than once. It is still structurally sound and fully functional for various secondary uses. These containers provide a cost-effective storage or transportation solution.

Though used shipping containers may show signs of wear, such as dents or surface rust, they remain cargo-worthy and maintain wind & watertight integrity to protect your belongings from the elements.  Many businesses and individuals choose used shipping containers due to their competitive pricing over new shipping containers.
