Used containers: the smart, economical and sustainable solution for your needs
In a world where cost optimization, flexibility and care for the environment matter more than ever, second-hand containers have become an increasingly popular choice for businesses, event organizers, landowners, and even private individuals. On our website we offer a wide range of second-hand containers checked, refurbished and ready to serve as your storage space, office, temporary housing or even a customized modular solution.
What are used containers and why choose them
Second-hand containers are reused shipping or industrial containers that have had a previous life in transportation or storage, but after rigorous inspection and, if necessary, refurbishment, can function as functional and safe spaces. By choosing a used container, you benefit from:
- Significantly lower costs compared to new containers;
- Durability - many have been built to withstand harsh conditions and refurbishment extends their useful life;
- Short delivery time - generally available immediately without long lead times;
- Sustainability - reuse reduces waste and environmental impact;
- Versatile - can be adapted for multiple purposes: storage, offices, temporary housing, pop-up shops, workshops, etc.
Types of used containers we offer
On our website you'll find different types, sizes and states:
- 20' and 40' sea containers - the most common, ideal for storage and modular conversions.
- Office type containers - refurbished with insulation, windows, doors and electrical to serve as mobile offices.
- Second-hand refrigerated containers - for temperature-sensitive storage (can be checked and adapted as needed).
- Special (modified) containers - with side doors, ramp, ventilation system or other customizations on request.
How we check and prepare containers before sale
Quality is essential. Every used container listed on our website goes through a standard verification process:
- Structural inspection - check for rust, warping, panel tightness and floor integrity.
- Leak test - check that the container is watertight and has no water ingress.
- Cleaning and disinfection - all interiors are professionally cleaned.
- Minor repairs - gasket repairs, partial repainting/rust repair, depending on original condition.
- Customization (optional) - we add windows, new doors, compartmentalization, insulation or electrical installations, according to the client's requirements.
All these steps are documented, and for each container you can see a description of its condition and any work done, so you know exactly what you're buying.
Common uses of second-hand containers
Used containers are incredibly flexible and can be used in dozens of scenarios:
- Storage spaces for companies and individuals - storage of equipment, building materials, archives.
- Site offices - mobile premises for project management in the field.
- Temporary / modular housing - solutions for work camps, refugees, event camps.
- Pop-up shops, stands and mobile cafes - creatively transformed for retail.
- Workshops/laboratories - safe spaces for small-scale production or research.
- Exhibition halls or information points - easy to assemble, dismantle and relocate.

What to check before buying a used container
Even though we make a rigorous selection, as a buyer it's good to be careful:
- General condition of the structure - no major deformation or corrosion compromising integrity.
- Watertightness - if the interior shows dampness or signs of seepage.
- Floor - not rotting (especially containers that have been in damp environments).
- Doors and seals - close properly, no play.
- Refurbishment history - what work has been done, if there are any warranties for it.
We provide you with all this information and, if you wish, send you a video or organize a viewing (if applicable) so you can buy with confidence.
Customize and adapt: transform the container to your needs
A used container does not have to remain "standard". Among the most common modifications we make:
- Thermal and sound insulation (for offices or homes).
- Additional windows and doors.
- Internal compartments (toilets, work areas, storage spaces).
- Lighting and electrical sockets.
- Painting and branding (your company logo, custom colors).
- Ventilation or air conditioning systems.
These customizations turn a container into a turnkey solution that exactly meets your requirements.
Maintenance and prolonging life
To ensure that your investment in a used container remains a profitable one in the long term, here are some simple maintenance tips:
- Regular cleaning of surfaces and checking of seals.
- Reapply anti-rust treatments where small corrosion spots appear.
- Check for leaks after heavy winters or storms.
- Servicing electrical or air conditioning installations if they have been added.
We also offer on-demand maintenance packages for customers who want regular monitoring.
