Finding a Use for Used Shipping Containers for Sale
In recent years, shipping containers have become a popular substitute for conventional building materials. As shipping containers are made large, sturdy, and resistant to rodents and weather, they have become the cornerstone of many structures and developments.

What We Do with Used Shipping Containers
The options are endless when deciding what can be done with a used shipping container. Allow USA-Containers to give you a few of our project ideas, to maybe inspire an idea of your own.
- Storage All Year Long
- For many businesses and farming operations, storage is a necessity, especially when winter hits. For this reason, many clients use our shipping containers as storage units. A shipping container may be the best option for storage because it’s sturdy, resistant to elements, and directly accessible to you. No more ferrying supplies and equipment between your business and a unit at some far-off storage facility.
- Easy to Transport Structures
- For many outdoor events, such as festivals, fairs or concerts, most attractions and stands utilize easy to transport structures and equipment. A shipping container can be one such structure. USA-Containers has plenty of experience turning used containers into concession stands, bars, ticket booths, security shacks, and more. Additionally, our refrigerated containers are an excellent option for keeping food and drinks preserved while outside.
- Permanent Locations
- Many of our shipping container creations aren’t necessarily meant to move once they’re in place. We’ve made containers for dog kennels, farm animal pens, office spaces and warehouses. In fact, we can use shipping containers to build entire buildings meant for businesses to operate out of. The main office of USA-Containers is one such building, constructed from used shipping containers.
Containers Without Customization
The used shipping containers for sale we offer don’t all have to be customized. We also provide base options for 20-foot and 40-foot-long shipping containers. However, each box we purchase we make sure meets our high standards. Thus, you can have confidence in your container for years after purchase.
- Dry Containers – A storage container with no significant changes or adjustments. You can buy accessories like locks, shelves or ramps to give your box a little more versatility.
- Refrigerated Containers – Also known as Reefer Containers. Unlike dry containers, these containers are meant to hold or transport perishable goods.
- Ice-Cubz – Our own take on Reefer Containers. Ice-Cubz containers are 14’ in length and available to rent or purchase for restaurants, catering or events.
