Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 40’ new high cube shipping container for sale in Seattle?

A 40’ new (one trip) high cube shipping container for sale in Seattle is a nearly brand new 40’ steel container that has been used only once, typically to ship cargo from the manufacturer overseas to the U.S.

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.

What are the uses of 40 feet new High Cube containers?

Other than for storing and transporting bulky items that don’t fit in standard containers, 40 feet High Cube containers are used as portable offices or for storage. They can also be customized for various functions.

Can I purchase a new or used high cube container in Seattle?

You can purchase both new and used high cube containers for sale with us in Seattle. The choice often depends on budget, container prices, and specific needs.

What is the difference between new and used shipping containers in Seattle?

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 high cube 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.

Can I build a container ADU in Seattle?

Yes, Seattle is one of the accessible markets in the country for container-based accessory dwelling units. Container ADU projects must comply with the Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections (SDCI) permitting process, including setback requirements, height limits, design standards, and Washington State Building Code compliance.

Are shipping containers inspected before delivery to Seattle?

Yes. Every Container from National Container undergoes inspection processes before it is delivered to your Seattle address. This matters especially in Seattle’s high-rainfall environment.

Are shipping containers rain-resistant enough for Seattle’s climate?

Yes. Corten steel shipping containers are inherently weatherproof and rust-resistant, making them well-suited to Seattle’s wet Pacific Northwest climate. For long-term storage, we recommend Wind & Water Tight (WWT) or one-trip condition grades, and adding vents to prevent internal condensation build-up.

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?

Yes, every shipping container we sell includes a limited lifetime warranty covering structural integrity, wind- and water-tightness, and door hardware against manufacturing defects. The warranty applies to all standard 20-foot and 40-foot ISO shipping containers in our inventory.
