I was very happy with the container I bought from Superbox. It was the cheapest I found and delivery was on time and professional. Sarah was a pleasure to deal with.
These guys are top notch we have purchased 6 containers from them already and always delivered on time and containers are always as described. They even do our container moves for us from Job site to job site.
This is the 2nd container we’ve purchased from Superbox Inc. to store in our church parking lot. Sarah has been amazing to work with and also great delivery drivers dropping the container right where we wanted it…

Frequently Asked
Questions
How much does a shipping container cost?
Pricing is based on supply and demand! That's why we encourage you to call and get a custom quote. Our used containers start around $1800 and brand new containers start at $2850.
New or “one-trip” shipping container
A new, or “one trip” shipping container is a container that was manufactured overseas (typically in China) and sent overseas filled with goods. Once the goods are unloaded, the shipping container is sold, hence the name “one trip” shipping container. These “one trip” shipping containers are as new as you can buy. They will be in excellent condition with the possibility of some dings and scratches from it being shipped on a barge along side other containers and handled at the ports with forklifts, etc.
Used shipping container
Generally, used shipping containers are several thousand dollars cheaper than new or "one trip" shipping containers. The difference is that a used storage container has rust and dents due to being in circulation with shipping companies such as Matson, etc. The used shipping containers we sell don’t have holes in them; they are wind and water tight. But if you want the best condition shipping container, then you’ll want to buy a “one trip” shipping container.
The cost of a 40' high cube shipping container is relatively the same as the cost of a 40' standard height shipping container, whereas the cost of a 20' high cube shipping container is at least a thousand dollars more expensive than the cost of a 20' standard height shipping container.

What are the dimensions of a shipping container?
Shipping Container Width
Shipping container width is always 8' wide.
If you feel 8’ wide is not wide enough for you, we do fabricate portable shipping container buildings that join together multiple shipping containers to make structures that are 16 feet, 24 feet, 32 feet, 40 feet wide, etc.
Shipping Container Length
Common shipping container length’s are 45' long, 40' long, 20' long, or 10' long by 8' wide.
Shipping Container Height
Shipping container height is either 9'6" tall (known as a “high cube” or “high boy”) or 8'6" tall (known as standard height or “low cube”).
A “high cube” container is 9'6" on the exterior and 9' on the interior.
A “low cube” or standard height container is 8'6" on the exterior and 8' on the interior.
Our customers find that the extra one foot height makes a big difference when using the shipping container for an office or a home.
How much does a shipping container weigh?
Weight depends on the shipping container size. An empty 20 foot shipping container weighs between 4000 and 4,850 lbs. An empty 40 foot shipping container weighs between 8,340 and 9,260 lbs.
Shipping Container Sizes & Weights

2,800 lbs (1,270 kg or 1.27 metric tons)
20 ft Shipping container (Standard Height)

40 ft High Cube Shipping Container

What is the life expectancy of a shipping container?
A new or “one trip” shipping can last up to 50 years, but this can obviously depend based on many factors such as what the shipping container is used for, how it is maintained, and many other factors.
A used shipping container won’t last as long as a new shipping container because it has probably spent 10-12 years of its life in transport, but they can still last you a very long time, especially if you maintain them.
How do I ensure smooth delivery of my shipping container or mobile office?
The ground where you want the shipping container or mobile office to be placed needs to be solid and dry. If the ground is wet due to rain, please let us know prior to delivery as we will likely need to reschedule.
Consider the road leading to the delivery site. If there are excessively sharp turns or extremely windy roads, the delivery truck may not be able to pass. This is especially the case when delivering a 40’ shipping container, which requires more space for clearance than a 20’ shipping container. If there’s a doubt as to whether the truck can access your property, it’s best to schedule a time for the driver to pre-check the delivery location to assess whether the shipping container can be delivered where you want it.
The delivery surface needs to be level. If the surface is uneven this can create an imbalance making the container doors, or any installed doors, difficult to open and close. If you don’t have access to an even surface, you can create an even surface by doing things like pouring a concrete slab foundation or building a pad with compacted course base gravel. You can also use concrete foundation blocks and shims to create a level foundation.
