Before buying a shipping container, check the structure first. Look for holes, make sure the floor is solid, and confirm the doors open, close, and seal properly. Surface rust is common on used containers, but heavy corrosion, damaged door hardware, or weak spots on the roof can affect performance. The roof should be in good condition and free from areas that could lead to leaks. If possible, inspect the container before purchase or ask for clear photos and condition details. At StoreCan, every unit is inspected before sale.

Yes, shipping containers can be used for storage at home or on commercial property, depending on local zoning rules and site conditions. They are commonly used to store tools, equipment, furniture, seasonal items, and other materials. For best results, place the container on level, stable ground such as gravel, blocks, or pavement. Before delivery, check local requirements for placement, access, and any permits that may apply in your area.

Delivery times depend on container availability, your location, and truck scheduling. Once your order is confirmed, our team works to coordinate delivery to your home, business, or job site as quickly as possible. If you need faster delivery, mention it in your quote request and we will let you know what options are available. Pickup may also be available from select depot locations.

New shipping containers, often called one-trip containers, are typically in much cleaner condition with minimal wear from prior use. They are often chosen for projects where appearance matters, such as offices, retail builds, or custom container conversions. Used containers are more affordable and may show cosmetic wear such as surface rust, dents, or other signs of prior service, but they can still be a practical option for storage and general-purpose use. If appearance is less important, a quality used container can be a more cost-effective choice.
