How buying works

Four Steps, No Deposit

1. Tell us the size and ZIP

Call or send the form. We confirm what is in the yard and quote the container plus delivery to your ZIP code — one number, no surprises later.

2. Pick your grade

Wind-and-watertight for budget jobs, cargo-worthy for most buyers, one-trip when appearance matters. We will tell you honestly which one your use case needs.

3. Prep the spot

Level ground, overhead clearance, straight-line room for the truck. Our site prep guide covers exactly what to check.

4. Inspect, then pay

Your driver places the container on the spot you pick. You walk it, check the doors and floor, then pay. Nothing up front.

Buying Questions

How fast can you deliver a shipping container in Houston?

Often within 24 hours, Monday through Friday. We own our inventory and stock it locally near the Port of Houston, so most orders placed in the morning can be delivered the next business day anywhere in our 150-mile delivery radius.

What is the difference between a conex box and a shipping container?

Nothing — they are the same steel box. “Conex” is the older military term (from CONtainer EXpress) that stuck around the Gulf Coast, while shipping container, cargo container and sea can all describe the same ISO-standard unit. Read the full explanation in our conex vs. shipping container guide.

How much does a shipping container cost in Houston?

Our used containers currently start at $915 for a 20ft wind-and-watertight unit, cargo-worthy units run $1,095 to $1,555, and new one-trip containers run $2,250 to $3,480 depending on size. Delivery is quoted by ZIP code, and you pay at delivery after inspecting your container.

Do I need a permit or HOA approval to put a container on my property?

It depends on where you are. The City of Houston, each surrounding municipality and unincorporated Harris County all set their own rules for accessory structures — and in most Houston-area subdivisions the HOA deed restrictions are what actually matter. See our Houston permits and HOA guide for the full checklist.
