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 new and used shipping containers in Tacoma?
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.
