Why Smart Buyers Choose Used Shipping Containers
There's a reason savvy homeowners and business owners across Canada are turning to used shipping containers: they deliver the same strength and security as new units, but at a fraction of the cost.
The Value of Pre-Owned Containers
Think of it like buying a quality used vehicle. A shipping container that's already crossed oceans and handled harsh conditions has proven its durability. These steel structures are built to withstand decades of use, which means a pre-owned container still has plenty of life left—and plenty of value to offer.
The savings can be significant. By choosing used over new, you're getting weatherproof, secure storage without the premium price tag.
What "Used" Really Means
When you hear "used shipping container," you might picture something rusty and worn out. The reality is quite different—especially when you're working with a reputable supplier.
At Small Big Box, every pre-owned container in our national inventory goes through rigorous evaluation. We examine the structural integrity, check for weather-tightness, and ensure the container meets our standards before it ever reaches your property. Then we clean it thoroughly so it's move-in ready.
Finding the Right Fit
Your needs determine the size. A 20-foot container works beautifully for small businesses, seasonal storage, or backyard workshops. Construction sites, farms, and larger commercial operations often prefer 40-foot units for their expanded capacity.
Both sizes offer the same core benefits: steel construction, secure locking mechanisms, and protection from the elements.
Fast Delivery Across Canada
Location doesn't limit your options. Small Big Box delivers used containers nationwide—from British Columbia to Newfoundland, and everywhere in between. Most orders arrive within days, not weeks, so you can start using your storage solution right away.
