Looking to buy shipping containers in Ontario, CA? Container One offers the widest selection of new, used, and modified shipping containers across Ontario and greater San Bernardino County. Ontario is the commercial and logistics epicenter of the Inland Empire -- the vast San Bernardino and Riverside County basin that has become the largest industrial real estate market in the United States, driven by the explosive growth of e-commerce fulfillment and the overflow of cargo from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Ontario International Airport sits at the geographic heart of this logistics network, handling a rapidly growing volume of air cargo that makes it one of the fastest-growing freight airports in California -- with UPS, FedEx, Amazon Air, and major cargo carriers processing millions of packages daily through its cargo facilities.
The Ontario-Rancho Cucamonga-Fontana-Chino corridor is home to some of the largest warehousing and distribution facilities ever built -- Amazon mega-fulfillment centers covering millions of square feet, UPS and FedEx sorting hubs, and Prologis industrial parks stretching for miles along I-10 and I-15. Logistics operators, third-party logistics companies, and e-commerce fulfillment vendors use containers for overflow staging, trailer storage, and supply management throughout the Ontario metro industrial parks. California's ADU legislation adds residential demand for container studio and secondary dwelling builds on Ontario's residential lots. From 20ft containers to bulk 40ft units, Container One delivers from 300+ depot locations with all-inclusive pricing across California.

Ontario International Airport, Inland Empire Logistics, and the E-Commerce Revolution: Ontario International Airport's rise as a major cargo hub is one of the more remarkable stories in California aviation -- a regional airport that has been transformed by the explosion of e-commerce air freight into a critical node in the Amazon Air, UPS, FedEx, and DHL air logistics networks serving Southern California. The airport's cargo operations have grown dramatically as shippers have diverted freight from congested LAX to the more accessible Ontario facility, with the Ontario Airport Authority actively investing in cargo infrastructure expansion. UPS's massive West Coast distribution hub at Ontario Airport is one of the largest in the US, processing millions of packages daily for Southern California delivery. Amazon Air's Ontario operations add further e-commerce freight volume to an airport that has become one of California's most important logistics hubs.
Inland Empire Warehousing, Prologis, and the World's Largest Industrial Market: The Inland Empire's industrial real estate market -- anchored in Ontario, Fontana, Rialto, Moreno Valley, and Perris -- is the largest in the United States by square footage, driven by proximity to the San Pedro Bay ports (LA and Long Beach), access to I-10 and I-15, and the enormous Southern California consumer base. Prologis, the world's largest industrial REIT, has massive portfolio holdings in Ontario and along the Ontario-Rancho Cucamonga-Fontana corridor. Amazon, Walmart, Target, and virtually every major US retailer operate distribution facilities in the Inland Empire, using containers for overflow staging, trailer pools, and supply management. The scale of industrial construction in this corridor -- with new facilities regularly breaking ground -- generates consistent construction staging demand.
