Shipping Containers for Construction and Contracting
Job site storage, site offices, and secure lockups. Delivered nationwide with freight included.
Used 20ft containers run $2,000 to $3,800 delivered, and used 40ft run $2,800 to $4,500, with freight included in the ZIP code price. New 1-Trip units run $3,500 to $5,500 for a 20ft and $4,500 to $7,500 for a 40ft. Standard units ship in 5 to 10 business days from the depot nearest your site. Orders of three or more units go through the bulk desk for volume pricing and phased delivery.
We have sold containers for over 35 years and served more than 70,000 customers, working with everyone from solo trades to national contractors. We sell rather than rent, so the unit moves to your next job instead of returning to a hire yard. If you are still working out what configuration a site needs, our construction job site guide covers sizing by crew, security, permits, and site preparation in detail.
Why Contractors Buy From Us
Delivered Price Includes Freight | 300+ Depot Locations | Volume Pricing on 3+ Units |
Enter a site ZIP code and see the all-in delivered price. Pricing reflects the five nearest depots, so the quote returned is the lowest available for that address. | We dispatch from the depot nearest each site, which keeps delivery cost down for contractors running jobs across several markets. | Three or more units on one purchase order get volume pricing, phased delivery, and multi-address dispatch. |
Containers for Construction Sites
Four configurations cover most construction requirements: the 20ft WWT for tool storage, the 40ft WWT for materials and multi-trade sites, the 40ft High Cube where headroom matters, and a New 1-Trip unit as the base for a site office. All prices include delivery to your ZIP code.
Product | Delivered Price | Job Site Use |
|---|---|---|
20ft Wind and Water Tight | $2,000 to $3,800 | Tool storage and parts crib for crews up to about ten |
40ft Wind and Water Tight | $2,800 to $4,500 | Materials and multi-trade site storage |
40ft High Cube WWT | $2,800 to $4,500 | Tall materials and equipment needing extra headroom |
20ft New 1-Trip | $3,500 to $5,500 | Site office base and client-facing placements |
40ft New 1-Trip | $4,500 to $7,500 | Premium site office or welfare unit |
Container Office | Quoted | Ready-built site office, fitted before dispatch |
Roll-Up Door Storage Unit | Quoted | Forklift-ready daily access |
Job Site Accessories
Five additions cover the standard job site build: a roll-up door for full-width access, a lock box for security, vents to prevent condensation, a personnel door, and an office kit where the unit serves as site accommodation. All are available on the same order and covered by one financing agreement.
Accessory | Job Site Function |
|---|---|
Roll-Up Door | Full-width access for materials, pallets, and forklift entry without cargo door swing clearance |
Lock Box | Shrouds the padlock so bolt cutters cannot reach the shackle |
Shipping Container Door | Personnel entry without opening the main cargo or roll-up door |
Container Vents | Prevents condensation from damaging stored lumber, drywall, and finishes |
Office Kit | Core site office fit-out supplied as one package |
Accessories cannot be added to a financing agreement after an order is placed, so specify the full package at checkout. The complete range is on the container accessories collection.
Configurations by Operation Size
Configuration drives both unit count and order route. One or two units go through standard online checkout. Three or more move to the bulk desk, where volume pricing, phased delivery, and multi-address dispatch apply.
Operation | Units | Configuration | Modifications | Order Route |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Solo trade contractor | 1 | 20ft WWT | Lock box, vents | Online checkout |
Small builder, single site | 1 to 2 | 40ft WWT | Roll-up door, lock box | Online checkout |
GC, mid-size build | 2 to 3 | 40ft WWT plus 20ft office | Roll-up door, office kit | Bulk desk |
Multi-trade commercial | 3 to 4 | 40ft mix plus office | Roll-up doors, office kit | Bulk desk |
Multi-site program | 4 to 10 | Standardized 40ft spec | Uniform spec, all sites | Bulk desk |
Civil or infrastructure | 5 to 12 | 40ft mix plus welfare | Office kit, secure store | Bulk desk |
Standardizing Specification Across a Multi-Site Program Contractors running several active sites get the most value from a single standardized specification held on file. One spec across every site means crews moving between jobs already know the layout, replacement parts and keys are interchangeable, and reordering is a phone call rather than a fresh configuration exercise. It also improves the quote. A standardized multi-unit order dispatched from several depots to several addresses is efficient for us to fulfil, and that efficiency comes back in the pricing. Running more than three active sites? Call (330) 286-0526 and ask the bulk desk to set up a program specification. |
Pricing
All prices include delivery to your ZIP code with no separate freight charge. Pricing reflects the five nearest depot locations, so the quote returned is the lowest available rate for that address. Coastal and port-adjacent sites typically price lower than inland sites.
Container | Used Grades | New 1-Trip | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
20ft Standard | $2,000 to $3,800 | $3,500 to $5,500 | WWT is the standard job site grade |
40ft Standard | $2,800 to $4,500 | $4,500 to $7,500 | Best value per square foot |
40ft High Cube | $2,800 to $4,500 | $4,500 to $7,500 | Most in-demand configuration nationally |
Used grades cover Multi-Trip, Wind and Water Tight, Cargo Worthy, and AS-IS, with WWT being the standard job site specification. Full pricing detail by size and grade is in our 2026 price breakdown.
Bulk and Multi-Site Ordering
Bulk Order Desk: Three or More Units Volume pricing rather than per-unit list pricing. Phased delivery so units arrive as each site becomes ready. Multi-address dispatch from the depot nearest to each site. Fast reordering options with a standardized specification held on file. A single agreement covering the full order including modifications. Call (330) 286-0526 and ask for the bulk desk, or email [email protected] with your site list and unit count. |
Payment, Financing, and Section 179
Four payment routes are available: card or ACH for immediate purchase, Clicklease equipment financing over 12 to 60 months with a 60-second approval and a soft credit pull, Affirm at checkout for shorter terms, and pay-on-delivery for qualifying addresses where the unit is inspected before payment clears.
Containers purchased for business use may qualify as Section 179 depreciable assets, allowing the purchase cost to be deducted in the year of acquisition rather than depreciated across several years. Treatment depends on your business circumstances and should be confirmed with your tax advisor. Full payment terms are on the financing options page.
Modifications ordered with the container are covered by the same financing agreement, which is why the full package should be specified up front rather than added afterwards.
Procurement, Purchase Orders, and Vendor Setup
We supply contractors, general contractors, and civil firms that purchase through formal procurement. Purchase orders, vendor onboarding documentation, W-9 requests, certificates of insurance, and tax-exempt purchases are handled through the bulk desk rather than standard checkout.
- Purchase Orders: Accepted on qualifying accounts. Contact the bulk desk before raising the PO so the specification and delivered pricing are confirmed first.
- Vendor Setup: We can complete standard vendor onboarding packs and supply a W-9 on request.
- Certificates of Insurance: Available on request where a site or client requires one before delivery.
- Tax-exempt Purchases: Supply your exemption certificate at order so the invoice is raised correctly.
- Consolidated Invoicing: Multi-site orders can be invoiced as a single document or split by site.
Bringing procurement into the conversation early avoids the common delay where a specification is agreed, a PO is raised against the wrong figure, and the order has to be reworked. Call (330) 286-0526 before the PO is issued.
Lead Times
Standard containers ship in 5 to 10 business days from order confirmation. Modified units take longer because modification work is completed before the container leaves our facility. If you have a fixed site mobilization date, confirm lead time with us before ordering rather than after.
Order Type | Lead Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Standard container, no modifications | 5 to 10 business days | Dispatched from the depot nearest your site |
Container with roll-up door or vents | Longer than standard | Modification completed before dispatch |
Office kit or full fit-out | Longer than standard | Confirm against your mobilization date at order |
Multi-unit with phased delivery | Scheduled to your program | Units arrive as each site becomes ready |
Delivery is by tilt-bed truck. The site needs 12 feet of access width, 60 feet of clear run-out at the drop point, 14 feet of overhead clearance, and firm level ground. Site preparation and access planning for construction sites is covered in the job site guide and the
Inspection and Warranty
Every container is inspected before dispatch and again at delivery, with the condition record reviewed with you at the point of handover. New 1-Trip units carry a 10-year structural and 10-year no-leak warranty. Used grades carry shorter terms, which are confirmed at the point of order.
Pay-on-delivery is available for qualifying addresses, which means the container is placed and inspected on your site before payment clears. For contractors buying from a supplier for the first time, this removes the risk that the unit delivered does not match the grade ordered. The process is documented on the container inspection process page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer volume pricing on multiple containers?
Yes. Orders of three or more units go through the bulk desk, which applies volume pricing across the order rather than per-unit list pricing. Phased delivery and multi-address dispatch are included. Call (330) 286-0526 with your site list and unit count.
Can I pay by purchase order?
Purchase orders are accepted on qualifying accounts. Contact the bulk desk before raising the PO so the specification and delivered pricing are confirmed first, which avoids the PO being raised against a figure that then has to be amended.
Can you supply a W-9 and complete vendor onboarding?
Yes. We can complete standard vendor onboarding documentation and supply a W-9 on request. Certificates of insurance are also available where a site or client requires one before delivery. Raise these with the bulk desk at the start rather than after the order is placed.
Do you handle tax-exempt purchases?
Yes. Supply your exemption certificate at the point of order so the invoice is raised correctly from the outset. Amending an invoice after issue is slower than applying the exemption at order.
Can one order be delivered to several different sites?
Yes. Multi-address dispatch is standard on bulk orders, and each unit is drawn from the depot nearest its destination site rather than shipping everything from one origin. Delivery can be phased so units arrive as each site becomes ready.
Is delivery included in the price?
Yes. Every price shown includes delivery to your ZIP code with no separate freight charge, and pricing reflects the five nearest depots so the figure returned is the lowest available for that address. Full pricing detail is in our 2026 price breakdown.
What is the lead time on a modified container?
Longer than the 5 to 10 business days a standard unit takes, because modification work is completed before the container leaves our facility. If you are working to a fixed mobilization date, call (330) 286-0526 to confirm lead time against that date before ordering.
Can I inspect the container before paying?
Pay-on-delivery is available for qualifying addresses, which places and inspects the unit on your site before payment clears. Every container is also inspected before dispatch and again at delivery, with the record reviewed at handover. See the inspection process page.
What warranty comes with the container?
New 1-Trip units carry a 10-year structural and 10-year no-leak warranty. Used grades carry shorter terms, confirmed at point of order. Warranty terms are grade-specific rather than uniform across the range.
Can accessories be added after the order is placed?
Not to an existing financing agreement. Accessories bought later are a separate transaction outside the original agreement, which is why the full package should be specified at checkout. The range is on the accessories collection.
