One Trip vs Cargo Worthy vs Wind & Water Tight (WWT) vs Last In Line
One Trip
'One Trip' means nearly new, while 'Cargo Worthy' (CW) and 'Wind & Water Tight' (WWT) options offer savings with more wear. Choose based on your needs—be it a trendy tiny home or sturdy storage without busting your budget.
A ‘One Trip’ shipping container is essentially a new unit that has been used only once, typically for transport from its manufacturing origin to a destination. These containers are in excellent condition with minimal wear, making them ideal for storage or modular construction projects where the container appearance is important because of the project location. They offer the benefits of new containers without the higher cost.
Cargo Worthy
The 'Cargo Worthy' certification that vouches for their fitness for international transport under rigorous standards set by the IICL. These containers have been inspected rigorously; they’ve got more than a few miles on them but are still ideal for sheds, animal shelters, school equipment, vehicles, fire restoration jobs, remodel jobs, excess inventories, swimming pools, etc.
Wind and Water Tight
Wind & Water Tight (WWT) containers are sturdy storage units designed to withstand the elements, ensuring that contents remain dry and secure. These containers have been inspected to guarantee they're wind tight and watertight, providing reliable protection against wind, rain, and pests—ideal for animal shelters, sheds, vehicles, equipment storage, excess inventory, fire restorations, remodel projects.
As Is
Last in line are 'As Is'' containers—a gamble that may pay off if you’re looking for just a metal box. We sell very few of these due to the fact we have very little demand for this type of container. If you are in need of an “as is” container, please call and we can check our current inventory for damaged containers.
