Cargo-worthy Containers
These used containers meet the same standards as wind- and water-tight containers, plus additionally, they have the structural integrity to be used in shipping overseas. If you are using the container for export, this is the minimum level you will need. In addition, you will need to have the container surveyed to show the shipping line that it is cargo-worthy. We can arrange that for you.
We recommend this condition if you are either shipping the container overseas or planning on making any modifications to the container.
Please note that cosmetically, wind- and water-tight and cargo-worthy containers are the same.

We can help you decide
If you are not sure what level you are interested in, let us know. We can help you figure out what will meet your needs best. For customers who would like a nice looking container without the new container price tag, we offer painting services in some markets which will make a used container look nicer and will match your location.
Taking a cargo container and turning it into something else—living quarters, emergency relief shelters/centers, storm shelters, etc, is a very popular idea. You can picture what you want it to look like in the end, but how do you get started on your project?
