Why Choose Used Shipping Containers

It’s straightforward: value. With shipping containers used, you get rugged steel construction at a fraction of new-container pricing—without sacrificing dependable performance for storage or conversion projects. Tradecorp sources local inventory across the U.S., reducing trucking miles and delivery costs. Whether you need temporary space or a long-term installation, a shipping container for sale used offers one of the most cost-effective ways to add secure square footage fast.

Why Choose Tradecorp

Since the 1980s, Tradecorp has helped thousands of customers buy used cargo shipping containers with confidence. We pair you with nearby stock, provide transparent condition grades (As-Is, WWT, Cargo Worthy, One-Trip), and share inspection notes so you know exactly what you’re getting. Need a lockbox, vents, paint, shelving, or basic electrical? Our modification team can turnkey your storage solution—and we handle logistics end-to-end for a seamless experience.

Choose Container by Size

Right-size your project by filtering inventory by length. Smaller sizes excel in tight footprints; 20’ and 40’ are industry workhorses; high cubes add vertical clearance. We recommend starting with the smallest unit that meets your storage space needs for best cost effectiveness.

What to expect by size

  • 4’–10’ Minis: Compact storage units for tools, event gear, campus or urban sites; easy to position and relocate.
  • 20’ Standard: The go-to storage solution for job sites, retail back-of-house, and remodel staging—great balance of capacity and footprint.
  • 40’ Standard: Best cubic value per dollar; ideal for warehousing, inventory overflow, and seasonal changeovers.
  • High Cube (9’6” tall): Adds ~12 inches of headroom for racking, taller equipment, or light mezzanines.

Not sure which size to choose? Tell us what you’re storing and how often you’ll access it. We’ll recommend the most cost effective configuration.

Select Container by Type

Tradecorp offers a breadth of categories so you can choose function-first and then dial in condition (new or used shipping containers). Ask about add-ons—lockboxes, paint, vents, shelving, and more.

Standard Containers

ISO-compatible boxes with rear double doors; perfect for most dry goods and general storage units. Choose cargo worthy if you plan to move goods domestically or export.

Containers with Extra Doors

Side-opening and multi-door variants provide wider door openings and parallel access—ideal for palletized freight, aisle picking, or rapid load turns.

Mini Containers

All the durability of full-size units in small footprints (4’–10’). Stackable, lockable, and popular for event ops, campuses, and tight urban sites.

Refrigerated and Insulated Containers

Keep perishables within set ranges or buffer ambient swings for pharmaceuticals, beverages, and floral. (Ask about power requirements and temperature specs.)

Industrial Containers

Open top, flat rack, and tank options for oversized or specialized cargo. When standard won’t fit, industrial types expand what you can stage or transport.

Offshore DNV Containers

Certified for oil & gas platforms and harsh marine environments. If you need DNV 2.7-1 paperwork or lifting sets, we’ll bundle the documentation.

Modified Containers

Turn a box into exactly what you need: man doors, roll-ups, windows, insulation, paint, lighting, HVAC, shelving—even basic office fit-outs for long term use.

COMMON USES

Used shipping containers shine wherever fast, secure, weather-resistant space is the priority. Popular applications include:

  • On-site storage: Tools, equipment, seasonal inventory, furniture, files.
  • Tiny homes & offices: Starter shells for creative conversions, studios, and jobsite offices.
  • Construction projects: Secure staging for materials and tools—add a shelf kit for rapid organization.
  • Retail pop-ups: Side-open units for merchandising; roll-up doors for flexible layouts.
  • Event operations: Back-of-house storage units, bars, ticketing booths, or AV cages.
  • Agriculture & landscape: Feed, irrigation gear, mowers, and supplies protected from weather.
  • Education & municipalities: Facilities overflow, athletics, archives, and emergency preparedness.
  • Logistics overflow: Short-term or long term yard storage to smooth seasonal spikes.

Pro tip: If you’ll buy used shipping containers for conversion (office, studio, vendor booth), ask about one-trip (near-new) units for cleaner interiors and straighter panels.

What’s Included When You Buy

  • Condition transparency: We’ll match your budget and use case to As-Is, WWT, Cargo Worthy, or One-Trip grades.
  • Door operation check: Hinges, lock rods, and seals tested so doors open and close smoothly.
  • Floor integrity: Marine plywood or steel floors verified for soundness.
  • Weather protection: Wind and water tight (when specified) to keep contents dry year-round.
  • Optional add-ons: Lockboxes, vents, paint, shelving, man doors, lighting, HVAC, ramps.

Buying vs. Renting

  • Buy when you want the best lifetime value or plan to keep a unit long term. Ownership lets you customize and relocate at will.
  • Rent for short-term project needs or to scale up and down with seasonality. We’ll right-size your monthly plan and handle swap-outs.

Not sure which path fits? We’ll compare total cost of ownership vs. rental to help you make the most cost-effective choice.

How to Get Started

  1. Tell us your plan. What are you storing? How often will you access it? Any site constraints?
  2. Pick size + type. Use our filters to compare capacity, access, and budget.
  3. Select condition. For stationary storage, WWT is often the sweet spot. Planning to ship? Choose cargo worthy.
  4. Customize (optional). Add lockboxes, paint, vents, shelves, lighting, or HVAC.
  5. Schedule delivery. We coordinate trucking, site setup, and placement—often within days.
