Condition Options

Used WWT or One-Trip: Which Is Right for You?

Used Wind & Water Tight (WWT)

Inspected and certified to keep wind and water out. It shows the cosmetic wear you would expect from a container that spent years in commercial shipping service: surface rust, paint chips, minor dents. The interior stays dry, the doors seal tight, and the floor is structurally solid. For a full breakdown of every grade we sell, see our container condition guide.

Best for: General storage, construction sites, farm use, any application where appearance matters less than value.

Warranty: 5 year structural and 5 year no-leak.

One-Trip (Like New)

It made a single ocean crossing from the factory and is essentially brand new. Minimal cosmetic marks from that one voyage, clean and dry interior, excellent floor condition, like-new paint. It costs more than used WWT and is the cleanest grade sold.

Best for: Conversions, food-adjacent storage, sensitive storage, anyone who wants the best-looking unit.

Warranty: 10 year structural and 10 year no-leak.

  • Overhead clearance: At least 15 feet of height for the truck to drive in and 22 feet of height along the entire unloading path, with no low branches, power lines, or carport roofs in the delivery path.
  • Firm ground: Grass, gravel, dirt, or concrete all work. Soft or waterlogged ground may need gravel prep.

FAQ

20ft Container Questions

The container arrives on a tilt bed truck, which needs 110 feet of straight, level run measured back from where the container will sit, at least 15 feet of height for the truck to drive in and 22 feet of height along the entire unloading path, with no low branches, utility lines or carport roofs in the path, and at least 10 feet of width. Describe your approach and your drop spot when you ask for a quote, so the site can be reviewed before anything is scheduled.
Wind and Water Tight units start at $2,152 delivered in Lexington. What you pay depends on the grade you choose, on what is in stock when you order and on the access at your site. Container One sets prices, and they change without notice; your written quote gives the price for your order, including delivery to your address. Prices as of 2026-09-30.
Warranty runs by grade: one-trip units carry a 10 year structural and 10 year no-leak warranty, cargo worthy and wind and water tight units carry a 5 year structural and 5 year no-leak warranty, and economy units carry a 1 year roof leak warranty.
Set the container on firm, level bearing at all four corner castings. Compacted gravel, concrete or sound timbers can work for storage when the site drains and the supports stay even. Keep the doors clear of standing water and do not assume a pasture is ready for a loaded delivery truck after rain.
