Anyone looking to buy used shipping containers<\/strong> can get wind and watertight steel containers from Coin Container at a fraction of the price of a new one \u2013 inspected, with the condition grade stated and available for delivery. For storage, construction sites, conversions or overseas shipping, a used container is in most cases the economically sensible choice. This page explains the condition grades, gives price ranges by size and condition, and provides a checklist for your purchase.<\/p>\n

How much does a used shipping container cost?<\/h2>\n

Used shipping containers cost significantly less than new ones \u2013 a used 20 ft container is in the low four-figure range, a 40 ft container somewhat above that. The price depends mainly on the condition grade: the difference between an \"As Is\" container and an inspected \"Cargo Worthy\" container of the same size can easily be 1.000. \u20ac<\/p>\n

Condition grades made simple<\/h2>\n

The condition grade is the most important piece of information when buying used. It tells you how watertight and how sturdy the container is \u2013 and determines the price.<\/p>\n
