  • New Shipping Containers generally cost 60-70% more than used containers. However, considering their longer lifespan, lower maintenance needs, and higher resale value, they offer excellent value for money.

  • New Shipping Containers have typically only completed a single voyage to their destination country, resulting in minimal port and depot handling. As a result, they generally show fewer dents, rust, and scuff marks. Buyers should strongly consider new containers when they’ll be placed in high-exposure locations or are meant to represent a brand or business. Additional benefits of purchasing New Shipping Containers include their ease of modification and the fact they don’t require re-survey for rail or shipment for 5 years from the date of manufacture.
