What does “Cargo-Worthy” mean?

Cargo-worthy containers are shipping containers that meet specific structural and safety standards required for the transportation of cargo by sea. These containers are considered suitable for international shipping because they are in good condition and have been inspected and certified to be seaworthy. Some criteria for cargo-worthy containers include: structural integrity, wind/watertight, CSC certification, door deals, regular inspection, secure door operation.

Do you deliver, and how?

Yes, we deliver. We use a 40’ tilt trailer to deliver and will need approximately 100 feet of straight-away space to place your container on your land.

How much does a shipping container weigh?

The weight of an empty container will vary by size. 20’ containers weigh approximately 5,000 pounds. 40’ containers weigh approximately 8,000 pounds.

Do I need to prepare my land before delivery?

We recommend flat, level land for the container to be placed on. You can use railroad ties, cement blocks, etc. to help level out the land. Be sure to place the wood, cement, etc. on the corners of the container. Our delivery team are experts and will do their best to accommodate your needs. They will let you know what is and isn’t possible and will guide you through the whole experience.
