New and used high cube shipping containers for sale

On the Container xChange trading platform, we have 12 types of shipping containers in high cube versions. Each of these containers also comes in different conditions. If you’re looking for the highest level of quality and have some additional funds, then new or one-trip high cube containers would be an excellent buying option for you.

New or one-trip shipping containers last an average of 25 years and will only require minimal maintenance. Plus, you can sell or lease them in the container market when not in use. Thus, buying new containers is a great investment option.

However, if you’re looking for an affordable option, then used high-cube containers might be perfect for you. You can choose between cargo-worthy (used) or wind and watertight (WWT) containers. Used containers may have some dents but they’re still suitable and sturdy enough for shipping your cargo safely.

On the xChange trading platform, you can find both new and used high cube containers for sale. Simply click the banner below to look at multiple container offers and check out the price difference between used and new shipping containers in your location.

40ft HC reefer container for sale

Reefer containers are used to move temperature-sensitive goods such as fruits, vegetables, ice cream, drugs, or meat. They can maintain any temperature between -30°C and +30°C. Reefer containers come in three sizes – 20ft, 40ft and 40ft HC.

Specialized containers like reefers are not easily available. As a result, there is a stark difference in their prices from one location to another. For example, the average price of a 40ft HC reefer container (cargo-worthy) in Qingdao, China is $7495. But the same container will cost you only $3500 in Hamburg, Germany.

These boxes are wider than a standard container. This makes the stowing, storing, and transportation process of pallets much easier and more efficient. Pallet-wide containers also come in three sizes – 20ft, 40ft and 45ft HC. Depending on the number of euro pallets you need to transport, you can choose between the three sizes.
