4 FAQs about Trading conditions for wind-resistant folding containers

What is a wind & watertight container?

When shopping for used shipping containers, sometimes the difference in container conditions is not as obvious as you would think. On the surface, Wind and Watertight (WWT) and Cargo Worthy (CW) containers are both used and have rust, dents, scratches, etc. Visually, a wind & watertight container can look just like a cargo worthy container.

Can WWT containers be shipped overseas?

WWT containers are also guaranteed not to leak or have holes. However, they might have some patches or repairs, due to some damage that was sustained in shipping. These storage containers cannot be shipped overseas, as they do not meet the requirements of the CSC (referenced above).

Who is container technology?

Do you need a cargo worthy container?

Your container doesn't need to be Cargo Worthy if you're not going to ship it overseas. A WWT container will usually cost a bit less as well, since they don't need to be surveyed. They are simply inspected by the yard, to ensure they meet the requirements to be called WWT. These containers will also range in age from 10-15 years old.
