Shipping containers are a great option for shipping freight overseas and on land - it's what they were made for. Since they're made of COR-TEN steel and constructed to be wind and watertight, they're extremely durable and can withstand long journeys over land and sea. What's more, their windowless, one-entry-point design keeps your goods secure and private while they go from one.
These containers are available in a wide range of standardized dimensions and weight-bearing capacities, allowing you to select the most suitable specifications that align with your cargo's weight and volume requirements.

CONTAINER PURCHASE, DELIVERY AND PLACEMENT ON PROPERTY WAS EXCELLENT. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
William, delivered our containers on yesterday he was very professional and on time with both containers.
The process was seemless. The delivery guys were professional and lovely to work with. The price for our 2 40ft containers was excellent!
Everything was perfect. The deliver guy was really helpful.
Great Experience!! From the beginning of inquiry until the driver left our location, EVERYTHING was PERFECT. Communication, payment, delivery, and any questions/concerns, they handled it all. Very friendly people and very helpful. We highly recommend this company for your shipping container needs. THANKS!!!
I would definitely use Boxhub again. Ordering was easy and delivered on the date specified. The delivery driver Dave was awesome. I ordered a 40 foot container. It took sometime but he got it in place. Definitely a two thumbs up . If you need a container just remember. There are a lot of scams out there. They take your money and don't ever deliver. Boxhub maybe a couple hundred more. To me it was worth it not to have a headache. Thanks Boxhub !!!
Placing the order and delivery were easy for the purchase of a container. Scheduling and delivery were prompt and the driver was excellent. Would use again for my next purchase.
We are very pleased with our BoxHub experience. The process was easy, and setting up delivery was a breeze. We worked with Steven J at BoxHub, Elizabeth set up delivery and Leon was our delivery driver. Everything went smoothly and the containers are exactly what Steven said they would be. Elizabeth gave us Leon's name when scheduling and he called us the evening before hand as promised. Leon maneuvered his truck on our challenging driveway/hill with grace and a smile, then dropped the containers exactly where we needed them. Thank you for doing as you say you will.
Box hub fit the needs of my shipping container. The day before deliver there sub contractor called to cancel the delivery for the day scheduled. Called box hub and they worked hard to correct the issue and found a delivery contract for the day promised. Them fixing it seamlessly make me a very happy customer. The container is as promised air and water tight. I'd recommend box hub for your shipping container needs.
Product is exactly as we wanted, and the delivery team did an amazing job dropping it on site perfectly. Thank you again.
Professional and prompt
The ease of the transaction and delivery service were above my expectation. I'll definitely recommend this company.

How should I choose a container for shipping?
Shipping containers are available in several standardized sizes and conditions, making it easy to choose one that best fits your shipping needs. The most readily available sizes are 20ft shipping containers, which have an internal volume of 1,172ft³, and 40ft shipping containers, which have an internal volume of 2,385ft³.
Choosing the right size and condition for your containers depends on your cargo and budget. Our 20-foot containers are best suited to ship smaller volumes of cargo, while our 40-foot containers can handle more volume but less weight.

How can I buy shipping containers for shipping?

Do these shipping containers meet ISO standards?
ISO standards most notably apply to the size, height, and type of container.
- Size: The standard ISO container sizes are 20ft, 40ft, 45ft, and 48ft.
- Height: ISO containers are available in two heights: standard (8’6) and high-cube (9’6)
- Type: ISO container types include general-purpose containers, refrigerated containers (also known as “reefers”), open-top containers, platform containers, and tank containers.
Boxhub primarily sells 20ft and 40ft storage containers in standard and high-cube heights. Specialty units such as reefers and open-top containers are available in certain markets.
How can I prepare for my shipping container delivery?
You need to make sure that your drop-off site is safe and accessible for the delivery driver. They will need enough space to maneuver the truck and offload your shipping container. They will also need a smooth, solid road — surfaces like sand, mud, snow, and loose dirt won't work for a delivery.
When choosing where you want your shipping container placed, keep in mind that shipping containers used for storage should rest on level, stable surfaces. This prevents the doors from warping and becoming difficult to close.
A cement or asphalt foundation is best, as it will provide a firm, level surface for the container and will stop water from pooling around the bottom. You can also protect your shipping container from groundwater by raising it on level wooden blocks or iron plates.
For more information, check out our guide to preparing for your shipping container delivery.
How tall are containers for shipping?
Standard shipping containers are 8 feet, 6 inches tall. This measurement is true for standard 20-foot and 40-foot containers. High-cube shipping containers are a foot taller than standard shipping containers, measuring 9 feet, 6 inches tall.
How much do shipping containers cost?
Shipping container prices vary based on size, condition, and delivery location. For example, a 20-foot container is typically cheaper than a 40-foot container. A new “one-trip” container — which has only made one trip across the ocean — will be more expensive than a used “wind and watertight” container, which has been retired from shipping after 12-15 years.
