What’s the difference between a new container and a well-used one?

It’s mostly cosmetic. What kind of image do you want to portray? If you run a breaker’s yard, then storing parts in a Grade B or Grade C container may be perfectly adequate.

If you’re the manager of a prestigious company, however, and your containers are to be stationed at head office for everyone to see, then new (1-trip) or Premium quality containers would probably be more suitable. Please get in touch if you’d like to know more about how we grade our used containers.

Did you know?
Dents can make a container look old, but appearance and condition are not always the same thing. Many dents affect only the outer panels, while the main structural strength comes from the frame, corner posts and corrugated steel design.
