Buying a used cargo container is a great way to save money while also receiving a great piece of equipment. Storage containers are made of steel, and are built to last anywhere from twenty to thirty years (depending on weather conditions & usage). Quality is of course a huge concern but it is not difficult to find a really old storage container that is still in great shape at a fraction of the cost of a brand new cargo container. One of the reasons it is so easy to find quality used storage containers is because there are so many of them being shipped in to our country every day. Most of the used cargo containers on the market today were only used a handful of times on the open seas and show very little wear and tear and no structural damage. Why not take advantage of these market conditions to get a great used container today, give us a call!
Typically used cargo containers come in three sizes, 10 foot, 20 foot, and 40 foot. The dimensions of the storage containers are 10ft X 8ft X 8.6ft for the ten foot container, 20ft X 8ft X 8.6ft for the twenty foot container, and 40ft X 8ft X 8.6ft for the forty foot container.
Typically the difference between a new and used cargo container is unrecognizable. Companies do such a good job these days refurbishing the cargo containers, that they are usually like new. Used cargo containers are almost always wind and water tight with only a few rust spots, if at all.
Most companies will not move a used cargo container that is already filled with goods. To move a full storage container you need a heavy duty specialized truck to deal with the weight restrictions. It is difficult to find a company that will move a full cargo container, but they are out there.
the normal rule of thumb is that you need sixty extra feet after the size of your container. So for a 20 foot used cargo container, you would need roughly 80 feet of space. Some companies have adopted a swing mechanism that allows them to cut down the length needed, but adds about ten feet on the width.
Obviously the quality of the storage container has a lot to do with how much a cargo container costs. You can find used cargo containers for as little and $1,000, or as expensive as $5,000. Again it has to do with the quality of the equipment, and also the availability.
A new cargo container can last anywhere from twenty to thirty years. So depending on how long the storage container has been in use, you can guess the shelf life. Weather conditions also play a major role in the life of a used cargo container, as extreme weather can be tough on the steel.
