New Shipping Containers for Sale

Why Choose New Containers Over Used Ones

New shipping containers offer several benefits compared to used models. True, in initial investment is higher, but you enjoy years of use, pristine looks, and more.

• 10-year warranty: Here at Viva Containers all our new units come with a complete 10-year warranty on structural elements
• Factory-fresh condition: New containers are delivered straight from the manufacturer without prior stress or repair history.
• Longer lifespan: New containers are expected to serve you for many decades, while used ones usually stand strong between 8-20 years and require more repairs.
• Clean interiors: Interior surfaces of new containers are free from cargo residue, moisture, or contaminants.
• Extended protection: New paint and sealants guard against corrosion and weather damage a lot longer.
• Consistent quality: Every corner, beam, and floor panel meets strict production and ISO standards.

Need containers that can handle demanding weather conditions for years and deliver predictable performance? Or perhaps you’re looking to set up a street food restaurant that demands aesthetic perfection? A new shipping container is the safest choice.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a New Container

To buy a new container successfully, you need to take into account these main factors:

• Shipping container size: two main sizes featured in our collection are 20ft and 40ft. 20ft shipping containers are more compact and perfect for backyard storage or a small workshop. 40ft containers, especially in new condition, are great alternative housing or commercial kitchen solution.
• Container height: standard containers come 8'6" in height - great for compact projects or in areas with building height limitations. High cube new containers are 9'6" tall, so they convert into two-storey solutions easily for creative use of space. They are also the go-to when limited footprint is an issue, for example for street vendors.
• Special features: new double door or tunnel access containers create perfect walk-through spaces and new containers with side doors make loading of palletized goods that much easier.

Our New Container Highlights And Features

Every new container in our collection comes built with features that improve security, usability, and long-term performance.

• CORTEN steel construction: Tough steel resists rust and corrosion and will last for decades in any climate.
• Forklift pockets: Reinforced slots allow fast, safe lifting and easy handling.
• Marine-grade plywood flooring: Thick, treated floors support heavy loads and block moisture or pests.
• High-quality locking systems: Strong locking bars and tight seals keep doors secure and weatherproof.
• Extra height, tunnel or side access: Choose the model that delivers more space, double entry, or side loading.
• Flexible for modifications: Add insulation, shelving, doors or windows

These features make our new containers dependable not only for shipping but also for innovative projects such as housing, retail spaces, and mobile offices.

How To Select The Right New Container for Your Project

Picking the right new container model depends on both size, intended use, and budget. To simplify the process, follow these steps before ordering:

• Define your purpose: using shipping containers for storage in the backyard or making one into a pop up cafe will usually require different models.
• Define your space: Choose between 20ft and 40ft containers, then measure your yard or site carefully to confirm the container footprint.
• Match your capacity: Choose between standard or high cube new containers depending on the volume you need.
• Select your delivery: Come and collect your container from the nearest depot or let us bring it to you in 2-5 business days.
• Check delivery access: Make sure your site has enough clearance for trucks and container placement.
