USED 40-Foot Dry Van Container – Cost-Effective, Practical, and Dependable
The used 40-foot shipping container is an affordable option for anyone requiring flexible, reliable storage. Its large, space-efficient design is perfect for temporary storage, construction site logistics, and short-term shipping.

Made from sturdy Corten steel, it offers security, durability, and weather protection while maintaining ISO certification for safe handling. Although pre-owned, it still effectively stores tools, machinery, furniture, or construction materials.

What does “used container” mean?
A “used” shipping container has typically been in service for several years in international transport. It shows signs of wear such as scratches, dents, or surface rust, but remains wind- and watertight, secure, and fully functional. Used containers are inspected and certified to ensure safe handling and cost-effective use.

Ideal for temporary dry storage, construction site operations, or integration into a supply chain, a used 40-foot container provides a practical and proven solution. Suitable for anyone looking for used shipping containers for sale, storage containers for sale, or portable storage units.

Pick-Up

A member of our team will reach out to coordinate your pick-up. With this option, you are responsible for ensuring you have a suitable vehicle and the proper equipment to safely offload your container on your property.

Tilt-Bed Delivery

If you select tilt-bed delivery, your shipping container will be delivered on a tilt-bed trailer. This is a specialized piece of equipment that is towed by either a hot shot truck or standard truck cab. Then, the front of the bed is raised so the container slides safely to the ground as the driver slowly drives forward.

To facilitate delivery on a tilt-bed trailer, you will need:

• Length Clearance: 100ft (30.5m)
• Height Clearance: 15ft (4.5m)*
• Width Clearance: 12ft (3.65m)

Note: Any low-hanging wires at the drop-site must be at least 18ft off the ground for the trailer to tilt safely.
