The Trucks are Big, and We Need Space to Deliver
Our haulers need 80′ of additional space in order to deliver a 40′ shipping container (120′ of total space), plus room for the truck to maneuver. Please make sure you’ve got space for delivery. 20′ shipping containers are delivered on a different size truck, and so we only need an additional 55′ of space (75′ of total space) to deliver 20′ containers.

Notes on the Shipping Container Shortage
Due to the supply chain issues caused by the global pandemic, we’ve seen a shortage of end of life used shipping containers available for sale. The lack of containers has caused the price of shipping containers to more than double over the past year. The speed at which containers are moving through ports has slowed dramatically, and at the same time demand for containerized freight has increased. Those issues continue to compound over time to slow the speed of cargo delivery. Some people are calling it a shipping container shortage, but we think “logjam” is a better term for what’s happening.

Every container we sell is also backed by our one year warranty.
