that are wind and water-tight, cargo-worthy, and ready to use.
Let’s explore your options and how we can help you get the perfect container delivered fast.
Why Buy a Shipping Container?
Shipping containers are made from strong steel. They are used around the world to move goods across oceans, but they are also great for storage, workshops, or even tiny homes. In Detroit, where space and durability matter, containers are a smart choice.
Common uses include: - On-site storage at homes or construction sites - Pop-up shops or offices - Modular buildings - Workshop or tool storage - Seasonal or warehouse overflow
You don’t need to build or rent expensive storage buildings. Just place a container on your property, and you’re good to go.
New vs Used Shipping Containers
When you’re ready to buy, you’ll choose between a new or used container.
Here’s how they compare:
New Shipping Containers (One-Trip): - Only used once to ship goods from overseas - Clean, minimal dents, no rust - Longest lifespan - Perfect for business or retail use
Used Shipping Containers: - More affordable - Environmentally friendly - May have dents or rust but still structurally sound - Ideal for storage or job sites
Many of our customers
buy a used shipping container in Detroit to save money while still getting great quality. Others prefer to buy a new shipping container in Detroit
for a cleaner look.
Sizes Available: 20-Foot and 40-Foot Containers
What Does a Used Shipping Container Cost?
The used shipping container cost
depends on several things: - Condition (wind and watertight vs. cargo-worthy) - Location and delivery distance - Current supply and demand - Container size and height
In general, used containers cost 30–50% less than new ones. At Container Management, Inc., we never sell “as-is” containers. All our used units are clean, sealed tight, and built to last.
We’ll give you a fair price and make sure the container matches your needs.
