What they look like
One-trip containers are the newest available for sale. Most are manufactured in beige (RAL 1015), though colors like dark blue, red, and grey are also common. They usually do not carry shipping-line logos—though it is a possibility. And while they are in excellent condition, minor scuffs or small dents from their single ocean journey are normal.
Features and build
One-trip containers come in two subcategories: storage-spec (also known as “trading-spec”) and shipping-spec (also called “leasing-spec”).
Storage-spec containers are made for domestic use and are easy to access and secure from the ground—they include features like a lockbox, easy-open door handles, and forklift pockets.
Shipping-spec containers are built for intermodal shipping and may not include all of the same features. However, the steel is slightly thicker in shipping-spec units (1.6 mm versus 1.2 mm for storage-spec), making them better suited for repeated transport.
Why they’re called “one-trips”
Because almost all containers are manufactured in China, they must make at least one loaded voyage before being sold in the U.S. This avoids the cost and footprint of shipping an empty unit.
Uses
New containers are suitable for any storage, shipping, or building application. They are the only grade we recommend for multi-story construction and are commonly used in the creation of modular self-storage facilities.
