Frequently asked questions:
How much difference is there between (New) one trip units vs. (Used) Cargo Worthy units vs (Used) WWT Wind-Watertight units?
(New) One Trip units- Excellent condition as seen in the picture below with the white walls and black floor. Rated as “Sea Certified” to safely carry cargo.
(Used) Cargo Worthy units- used condition as seen in the picture below with the red walls. Rated as “Sea Certified” to safely carry cargo. Older boxes with visible signs of wear including many scratches, dents, and patches but still a solid box.
(Used) WWT Wind-WaterTight units- Retired units that no longer hold “Sea Certification” We do NOT Keep any inventory on our lot for WWT units. We can get them if wanted but we highly recommend the other two rated units. Brutal honesty- we have 100% customer satisfaction on the One Trip containers and about 50% on the older used Cargo Worthy rated containers. We strongly encourage the Newer One Trip containers. We do not want to bring anything you will not be happy with.

What should I do to prepare for delivery?
Buy four 3” concrete cap blocks as pictured below from Lowe’s or a similar store. We will place one under each corner of your container to allow ventilation to flow underneath it. We do not recommend sitting units directly on the ground for long term usage.
How do I pay?
Cash, Check or Credit Card
Using a credit card adds a 3.5% processing fee to your cost. You can pay prior to delivery or pay our delivery driver at arrival.
How tall and wide are the units?
99% of our 40ft units are “High Cube” meaning they are 9’6 Tall. Standard Height units are 8’6. They are all 8ft wide.
99% of our 20ft units are standard height of 8’6. A High Cube is one foot taller at 9’6. All are 8ft wide.
Can I get a unit with more doors?
Yes. A unit with door on both ends is called a “Tunnel” unit. We can also get units with multiple doors going down the long side. Call us to get a price quote but as a general rule of thumb, every door adds close to a $1000 per door.
