Shipping containers are the massive steel boxes you see on construction sites being loaded into lorries, ships and trains for transport across the globe. They are designed to be wind- and water-tight to shield cargo from the elements as they traverse rough seas or difficult conditions.

If you're considering buying containers, you need to conduct some research to make sure you purchase the correct model.

Maybe the design of the container isn't important to you, or maybe your budget simply won't allow for a brand new purchase. Whatever the reason, purchasing a used container can save you money and is an excellent alternative for a variety of purposes and projects.
