BUYER GUIDANCE
Choose the unit, not just the label.
Availability varies between depots and dates. A responsible quotation should identify whether the offered unit is new one-trip, cargo-worthy, wind- and watertight, refurbished or converted.
For converted containers, confirm every opening, internal finish, service, appliance and external connection. For freight or specialist cargo units, confirm structural certification and intended transport use.
Delivery is a separate scope because the route, truck type, crane reach, overhead restrictions and final foundation all affect cost.
