NEW SHIPPING CONTAINERS
More commonly known as One-Trip containers, they are the newest and nicest shipping containers on the market. They are cleverly named One- Trippers due to their backstory of how they arrived at our depots they have made one cargo-filled trip from their manufacturing birthplace to their unloading port before reaching their destination of our depot.
USED SHIPPING CONTAINERS
Used Containers have been transporting goods all around the world for years. They can be sold As-Is, Wind and Watertight, or Cargo Worthy. At EMS, we focus on the grade status of Cargo Worthy. Within Cargo Worthy, we offer a premium option based on the overall positive aesthetic of the container.
Used shipping containers are very durable and designed to be long-lasting.

Yes, we do deliver. We use a 40' tilt trailer to deliver and will need approximately 100 feet of straight-away space to place your container on your land.
We recommend a flat, level land for the container to be placed on. You can use railroad ties, cement blocks, etc. to help level out the land. Be sure to place the wood, cement, etc. on the corners of the container.
Our delivery team are experts and will do their best to accommodate your needs. They will let you know what is and isn't possible and will guide you through the whole experience.
