Frequently Asked Questions
What is the definition of 40’ cargo-worthy shipping container for sale in Nashville?
A 40’ cargo-worthy shipping container for sale in Nashville is a used container that still meet international structural standards for transporting goods by sea, land, or rail for many years ahead.
What is the difference between a cargo-worthy and wind and water-tight shipping container?
A 40’ cargo-worthy container is suitable for international shipping. It is structurally sound, with a valid CSC plate. Meanwhile, a WWT 40’ container is ideal for static storage. Guaranteed to keep out wind and water but may show cosmetic wear such as dents, surface rust, or patched areas.
What is the difference between 40 feet and 40 feet High Cube?
The main difference is the height; a 40 feet High Cube container is one foot taller than a standard 40 feet container.
Can I purchase a new or used high cube container in Nashville?
You can purchase both new and used high cube containers for sale with us in Nashville. The choice often depends on budget, container prices, and specific needs.
What is the difference between new and used shipping containers in Nashville?
New (one-trip) containers have been loaded only once and are in near-perfect condition, ideal for container homes, ADU builds, or sensitive storage. Used containers come in several grades: Wind & Water Tight and Cargo Worthy.
Can I use 40’ new shipping containers for other purposes besides shipping?
Yes, you can. In fact, shipping containers are popular for storage, modular construction, tiny homes, mobile offices, and even as pools or retail spaces.
Are shipping containers inspected before delivery to Nashville?
Yes. Every Container from National Container undergoes inspection processes before it is delivered to your Nashville address. This matters especially in Nashville’s dry environment.
Is the climate in Nashville safe for a shipping container?
Yes, it is safe. Nashville experiences four distinct seasons, including hot, humid summers, mild to cool winters, and moderate rainfall throughout the year. This is well-suited for shipping containers, especially when the container is properly installed and maintained. Shipping containers are built from durable Corten steel. They can withstand a wide range of weather conditions, excellent choice for long-term storage and other applications in the Nashville area.
How long does shipping container delivery take?
Shipping container delivery typically takes 3-4 business days from order confirmation, with next-day delivery available in select metro areas and 7-10 business days during peak season (spring and fall). Delivery speed depends on your location, the time your order is placed, container availability, and seasonal demand.
Does the listed price include the delivery fee?
No, shipping container prices listed on our website do not include delivery fees or sales tax unless the listing specifically states otherwise. Delivery is quoted separately based on the distance from our nearest depot to your delivery address.
Do I need a permit for a shipping container?
Whether you need a permit for a shipping container depends on your local municipality. Some jurisdictions require no permit at all, while others require a zoning permit, building permit, or HOA approval before placement. Permit requirements for shipping containers, conex boxes, and cargo containers vary significantly by city, county, and state.
What's included with the delivery of my shipping container?
Standard shipping container delivery includes tilt-bed truck transport from our depot to your address and ground-level placement of the container on your prepared site. Site preparation, crane services, and permits are not included in standard delivery.
Do shipping containers come with a warranty?
