Most people know that you can bid on new and used shipping containers through the auction on ContainerAuction.com, and now you can also purchase shipping containers directly through the site.

On ContainerAuction.com we've added to our buying options by adding the "Marketplace" feature. Marketplace listings are available for immediate purchase, with no bidding or waiting times. These types of listings are ideal for situations for times when buyers are ready to purchase a shipping container right away.

Finding Marketplace listings on the site is as easy as performing a regular search. The best place to begin is on the Advanced Container Search page. Select "Marketplace" from the search options, add in any other criteria that's necessary for your container, and click on the search button. If you're already on the search results page, just select Marketplace from the options in the left hand column. Once clicked, the site will automatically filter out all traditional auction listings.
