10ft Storage containers
A 10ft storage container offers numerous benefits and serves as an ideal solution for a variety of storage needs. Here are some of the benefits of storage units over permanent buildings.
Cost-effective
A 10-foot container offers a lower upfront cost in comparison to permanent structures, as it doesn’t require significant investment, such as permits or labour.
Flexible and mobile
10ft containers offer excellent flexibility and mobility, with no need for foundations or construction. There’s no foundation or construction required, eliminating building expenses.
Storage containers like these can be easily relocated when you need a change of location, whether that’s moving retail locations, or working on a new construction site.
​
Speed of deployment
Delivered and ready to use immediately upon arrival. There’s no need to wait for setup or construction.

Minimal regulatory barriers
With 10ft storage containers for sale, you typically don’t require building permits, especially when they’re temporary or moved around.
​
New vs Used 10ft Containers
When choosing a 10-foot shipping container, there are both new and used ones available to buy. Here are some comparables to make in order to decide on which one is best for you and your needs.
​
New containers
New containers come in pristine condition and have minimal wear. No rust means a longer lifespan of 20-30 years. They’re ideal for branding and for retail use. Not only that, but they’re helpful if you’re working on conversion projects.
Sometimes appearance and reliability matter, depending on the purpose of the storage, so new 10ft storage containers for sale, though more expensive, require little maintenance.
They’re easier to modify and also retain a higher resale value if and when you come to sell them.
​
Used containers
Used containers are a more affordable option. They may exhibit signs of wear such as dents, faded paint, or rust, but you’ll find that they’re 30-50% cheaper. They’re the perfect choice for businesses looking to save a bit of money or those wanting to store domestic equipment that’s large and bulky. Weatherproof storage for tools, stock or equipment is one of the best uses for used containers.
The lifespan of these used containers is typically around 10-20 years, depending on prior usage.
​
How to choose between new and used
Your choice depends on your specific needs and priorities. While used containers are more affordable, and often ideal for short-term or utilitarian storage purposes, new storage units are more suited for long-term or publicly visible use.
Both are durable options; they’re mobile and cost-effective compared to more permanent structures like sheds or buildings, for example. However, used storage units offer greater sustainability through reusing them.
