Various Shipping Container Conditions

  1. One Trip Containers: One trip containers, often referred to as “like new” or “single use” containers, have only been used once to transport cargo from the manufacturer to their destination. They are in excellent condition, with minimal wear and tear. These containers are a great option for those looking for containers in almost new condition.

  2. Water Tight Containers: Water tight containers are used units that are in good condition and structurally sound. While they might have signs of wear, they are designed to keep out water and elements. They are suitable for secure storage needs where aesthetics are less of a concern.

  3. New Containers: New containers are unused and have not been in any cargo transport. They are in pristine condition, free from any signs of wear or usage. These containers are ideal for projects requiring the best possible condition and appearance.

  4. Used Containers: Used containers have been previously used for cargo transport and might show varying degrees of wear and tear. Their condition can range from gently used to showing more signs of use. They are functional and well-suited for applications where appearance is not a top priority.

  5. As Is Containers: Containers sold “as is” are offered in the condition they are currently in. They may have cosmetic and functional issues that require attention. These containers can be a budget-friendly option for those willing to invest in repairs or modifications.

  6. Cargo Worthy Containers: Cargo worthy containers meet specific structural requirements to be considered suitable for international shipping. They have been inspected and certified to safely transport cargo overseas. These containers are typically used but have been determined to be in suitable condition for international shipping standards.

  7. Wind and Water Tight Containers: Wind and water tight containers are structurally sound units that have been inspected and deemed capable of keeping out wind and water. While they might have some cosmetic imperfections, they are suitable for secure storage purposes.

  8. Refurbished Containers: Refurbished containers are used units that have undergone repairs and restoration to improve their condition. This can involve fixing rust, replacing damaged parts, repainting, and more. They offer a balance between cost savings and improved appearance.

  9. High Cube Containers: High cube containers are taller than standard containers, offering more vertical space. They are used when extra height is required for storage or modifications.

  10. Open-Top Containers: Open-top containers have a removable top cover, making it easy to load and unload cargo from the top. They are often used for bulky or oversized items.

  11. Flat Rack Containers: Flat rack containers have collapsible sides, making them suitable for shipping large, irregularly shaped cargo that can’t fit in standard containers.

  12. Refrigerated (Reefer) Containers: Refrigerated containers are equipped with temperature control systems, making them suitable for transporting perishable goods that require specific temperature conditions.

Each of these container conditions and types has its own advantages and considerations, so choose the one that best matches your specific needs and budget.
