CONDITION & QUALITY EXPLANATION

Our One Trip containers occupy the top tier of the market. While they have been used once to carry cargo across the ocean, they are strictly inspected to ensure they are free from deep dents, heavy rust, or structural damage.

• Cosmetic Condition: You may see very minor scuffs from transit, but they remain essentially like new.
• Structural Condition: The floor is original marine-grade plywood, and the door seals are fresh factory-spec.
• Expectation: Expect a clean, professional piece of equipment that looks great in any setting.

DELIVERY INFORMATION

We handle your shipping container delivery with precision.

• Access: Ensure the delivery path is flat and clear of low-hanging obstacles (power lines, tree branches).
• Ground Prep: While concrete or asphalt is ideal, a level surface of gravel or wood sleepers (railroad ties) is required to prevent ground contact and allow for drainage.
• Common Mistakes: Forgetting to measure the turning radius for our tilt-bed delivery trucks is the most common error. Consult with our team to verify site accessibility.
