A second-hand container has a lower purchase price compared to a new container.
Long service life even with some wear and tear.
Suitable for storage, shipping and multiple projects.
Environmentally friendly reuse.

What should I consider when buying a container?

When buying a container, it is important to first define your needs. Think about:

Size: Common sizes are 10, 20 or 40 feet. We also offer more sizes.
Use: Will the container be used for storage, shipping, or construction projects?
New or second-hand: New containers are in new condition and last longer, second-hand containers are more affordable but have wear and tear from previous use.
Specialised solutions: For example, do you need insulation, ventilation or electrical installation?

At LCS, we’ll help you choose the right model and make sure the delivery goes smoothly!

How much does it cost to buy a container?

The price of a container varies depending on:

Size (8-45 feet)
Model (standard, high cube, refrigerated, construction or special container)
Condition (new or second-hand)
Possible adjustments

A second-hand container is cheaper, while a new container has a longer lifespan. To get an exact quote tailored to your needs, contact us and we will prepare a price proposal.

Is it better to buy a new or second-hand container?

The choice between new and second-hand containers depends on your needs and your budget:

New container: Unused, fresh and with a long lifespan. It requires minimal maintenance and is a good option if you want a container that will last for many years to come or if it will be used in prestigious environments.
Used container: More affordable and a durable option that works well for storage, transport or remodelling. It may have minor marks or superficial rust, but is fully functional and gives you great value for money.

At LCS you can choose from both new and used containers. We help you find the right solution depending on how the container will be used, whether it’s a long-term investment or a more affordable solution for shorter projects.
