Shipping Container FAQ – MC Containers
FAQ
Quick answers to the questions buyers ask most before ordering a new or used container.
How much does a shipping container cost?
The price depends on the size (10ft, 20ft, 40ft or 40ft high cube), the condition (new, one-trip or used) and where the container needs to go. New containers cost more than used ones. Delivery to your port or address is added to the container price, so ask for a quote that shows both.
Prices for each model are listed on its product page, and a no-obligation quote gives you the full figure.
How long does delivery take?
Delivery time depends on whether the container is in stock near you, the shipping route and customs clearance. Local deliveries from a depot can usually be arranged within days to a couple of weeks. International sea freight usually takes several weeks from order to arrival.
We confirm the estimated timeline in your written quotation before you order.
How do I inspect a container before I buy?
Ask for recent photos or a video of the actual unit you are buying, not a stock image. Check that it has a CSC safety approval plate and a readable ISO 6346 container number. Look at the doors, locking bars and rubber seals, and check the floor for soft or damp spots.
Inside, close the doors and look for any daylight coming through the roof, walls or corners. Surface rust is normal on used containers, but holes and heavy corrosion are not. For larger orders, you can visit the depot or hire an independent surveyor.
What payment methods and terms do you accept?
Payment terms are set out in your written quotation, so you know the amount, what is included and when payment is due before you commit. For international orders, buyers commonly pay by bank transfer, often with a deposit when the order is confirmed and the balance before the container ships.
Only pay to the bank details shown on your official quotation or invoice. If anything looks different, contact us first.
What import paperwork do I need?
Most international shipments need a commercial invoice, a packing list, a bill of lading and a customs declaration. Some countries also ask for a certificate of origin or the container’s CSC approval details. We provide the shipping documents; customs duties, taxes and rules for used containers vary by country.
Your local customs broker or freight forwarder can confirm exactly what your destination requires.
Do you ship to the USA, Europe and Asia?
Yes. We ship new and used containers worldwide, including to the USA, Europe and Asia. Tell us your destination port or delivery address and we will quote port-to-port or door-to-door delivery.
