When it comes to 40-foot shipping containers, there are generally three main conditions available in the market: new, used, and refurbished. Here’s a breakdown of each condition:
When it comes to 40-foot shipping containers, there can be different grades available in the market. Here are some common grades you may come across:
● New IICL: An IICL container meets the stringent inspection requirements set by the Institute of International Container Lessors (IICL) and is deemed suitable for export.
IICL containers will have a higher book value because of their excellent condition. Their external appearance will look much better than a WWT container.● Used Cargo-worthy: Cargo-worthy containers are used containers that have been inspected and certified to meet shipping industry standards. They are suitable for international shipping as they meet the requirements for strength, structural integrity, and weather-tightness.
● Used Wind and watertight (WWT): WWT containers are used containers that are no longer suitable for international shipping due to minor damage or wear. However, they maintain their ability to keep out wind and water. These containers are commonly used for on-site storage, modified into custom structures, or repurposed for various applications.
● Used As-is: As-is containers are sold in the condition they are currently in, without any guarantees or repairs. These containers may have significant wear, damage, or structural issues. They are often purchased by those who require containers for non-cargo purposes, such as storage, construction projects, or creative modifications.
The price of used 40′ shipping containers fluctuates depending on the market. Due to the fluctuation in pricing, It is best to get a specific quote for a container in your area. Get immediate prices or request a formal quote.
A one-trip 40′ conex box is typically priced twice as much as a used container and also fluctuates in cost depending on the current supply and demand of the market.
