Frequently Asked Questions

The optmal choice depends directly on your specifc business objectves. In terms of
logistcs, both optons are viable, but it’s worth notng that the lease opton may be less
favorable due to longer shipment duratons and potental unforeseen demurrage
charges along the way. However, if you require a container for shorter periods or for
purposes other than shipping, leasing may offer a more suitable soluton.
At our company, the minimum leasing period we offer is three months, providing
flexibility to cater to different usage requirements. We understand that each business
has unique needs and preferences, and we are commited to accommodatng those
needs to the best of our ability.

Before buying shipping containers, it is important to consider the type of container that best suits your needs, its quality, and its availability in a timely manner. Our managers can help you find the most effective solution, utilizing a wide range of containers across the USA.

If you are using a container for international shipments and it leaves the United States within 180 days of crossing the border, it is considered transit equipment and does not require any additional fees. However, if you wish to keep the container in the US, you will need to pay a customs clearance fee. Most of our containers have already had the customs clearance process completed, but for those that are in transit, there are various options available for customs clearance.

Here’s the breakdown:
1. N-1 (New/1 Trip): These containers are in almost new conditon, having been
used only once to transport goods from the manufacturer overseas to the United States
and then delivered to you.
2. U-1 (2-3 shipments): Containers in this category are stll in excellent conditon
and have been used a few tmes to transport goods from the manufacturer overseas
back to the United States.
3. CW (Cargo Worthy): These containers are used and may exhibit some rust, minor
dents, and previous repairs. However, they meet the necessary certfcaton
requirements to be placed back on a ship or train for internatonal or domestc shipping.
4. WWT (Used, Wind, and Watertght): Used containers may have rust, dents, and
previous repairs, but they are stll suitable for securely storing your belongings.
