CONTAINER GRADES
Containers come in four classifications. They are as follows; New/One Trip, Cargo Worthy, Wind & Water Tight, and As-Is. Many companies are selling “A, B & C” grade containers. These are NOT industry standards. They are classifications created by companies rating their own inventory. A container with an “A” grade may not be the same quality as an “A” graded unit being sold by another company. Please take some time to review the grades and their definitions.
New or “One Trip”
These containers have made a single voyage from their point of origin carrying cargo. Once the container reaches its destination, they become available for sale. These units are nearly new. They are generally 33%-50% the cost of a new unit manufactured in the U.S. Most one trip containers can also be custom ordered to your color or specifications. They make great options for high-end custom modification projects or storage situations that require a near perfect appearance.
Cargo Worthy or CW
Cargo Worthy or CW containers are structurally solid. Their structure has been assessed by a certified container surveyor. This assures that the container meets with all the standards outlined by its original specifications. These units come with a certificate which permits this container to be transported on a container ship. Please note, this certificate is REQUIRED for ocean transport. These units are generally in superior condition when compared to Wind and Watertight (WWT) containers, this is mostly due to their younger age.
Wind & Watertight or WWT
Wind and Watertight (WWT) containers are guaranteed to be weather resistant and to have minimal levels of damage. They may require minimal repair costs as they are likely to have dents and rust, however there are no leaks or holes in these containers that would adversely affect their weatherproofing or structure. These units also have fully operational doors, their seals are intact. WWT containers can be upwards of 15 years in age, however they will pass inspection and receive the WWT seal of approval.
“As Is”
This is the lowest grade of containers. It is common place for companies sell these units to the public as a “special offer” to attract consumers with a very low price. There are no guarantees as to their weather resistance or structural integrity. Please beware that these units may, or may not have damage, it is in your best interest to thoroughly inspect them prior to purchase. Typically Certified Container Yard does not distribute these type of containers, however from time to time we have a few available, please inquire for more information.
