Premium is a used but better-condition container and is suitable for more visible locations. Cargo Worthy is often chosen when functionality and price are more important than a uniform appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a 40-foot container cost?
The price depends on the condition, model, current inventory, and shipping address. Contact us for a total price that includes shipping—or excludes shipping if you’d like to pick it up.
How big is a 40-foot container?
The exterior length is approximately 12.19 meters. The width, height, door opening, and interior dimensions vary by model and should be checked before purchase.
Can the container be used for ocean freight?
This requires that the specific container have the appropriate CSC status and meet the carrier’s requirements. We exclusively carry containers that are “cargo worthy” or of a higher standard and are therefore always certified for ocean freight. That’s why you won’t find WWT (wind- and watertight) or AsIs (as is) containers with us—the few kroner saved aren’t worth the lower quality. Read more about our quality categories.

Size and Typical Applications
A 40-foot shipping container is approximately 12.19 meters long. It is used for storage at businesses and construction sites, as well as for storage during moves and renovations. Measure larger items and the door opening before choosing a model.
New, Premium, or Cargo Worthy
A new one-way container has typically been used for one shipment to Europe and may show minor signs of handling. “Premium” refers to used containers that have been selected for their better condition. “Cargo Worthy ” refers to containers that are functional and may have dents, repairs, and surface rust.
Price and Shipping
The price of a 40-foot container depends on its condition, model, and inventory. Shipping costs are calculated based on the depot, delivery address, and access. A low price for the container itself does not necessarily mean the lowest total price if the shipping distance is long.
Location and Substrate
The container must be level and stable so that the frame does not warp and the doors can function properly. There must be unobstructed access for the truck and crane, as well as enough space to open the doors. Read our guide to container delivery
