What New / One-Trip Means

A new or one-trip container has generally completed one initial cargo movement from its manufacturing origin. Minor handling marks, paint abrasions, small dents, floor marks, or other transportation-related cosmetic evidence may still be present. This is normal for one-trip units and does not affect the stated condition classification.

Delivery Requirements

  • Processing: 1–3 business days after payment, verification, and receipt of required information.
  • Delivery estimate: 5–10 business days after processing.
  • Site access: tilt-bed delivery of a 20ft container needs a straight, firm approach (roughly 60 feet), 12–14 feet of width, and clear overhead access free of wires and branches.
  • Unloading: tilt-bed standard; flatbed, crane, or chassis options are quoted based on your site.
  • Complex sites are switched to quotation mode so transportation can be planned correctly — request a delivered price.
