Buying a Shipping or Storage Container: What to Expect

After you find a container on the site that you're interested in (assuming you've already set up an account and communicated with the seller), the navigate to the listing and either purchase the container through the "buy now" button, or make a bid if the container is being sold as an auction. Once a day our server processes invoices and emails them out for all of the containers sold during that day. Payment can either be made by bank transfer, on line bill pay, or many times people will drop off a check at their local Wells Fargo branch.

Container Delivery or Pick Up

Once your payment has been cleared and recorded in our system (normally within 24 hours of receipt) our staff will issue a release code and unit number for your container, or containers. The depot also has a copy of this information and confirms the details with the driver or person picking up the containers. After the container leaves the depot the next stop is your location. To save time, be sure and have the location prepared and any needed equipment onsite and ready to go.
