20 Foot Shipping Containers

20ft containers are sold in new or used condition. New 20 ft containers or one way shippers as they are also known are generally built in China, shipped to the UK with a cargo then emptied and returned to depot for sale. These one trip containers are sometimes built up to 2 years before they are sold however they will have only ever been used once to get them delivered from factory and will be in brand new condition.

Used 20ft containers are sold in 3 grades – A, B and C. The different grades will vary in price, age and condition. The newest container may not always be the best as you may find older containers that have had an easier life and used less than one much younger.

Both new and used 20 foot containers come in a variety of colours and are available in wind and watertight condition or fully inspected, CSC plated and certified for shipping. Lockboxes for added security are an optional extra.
