NEW SHIPPING CONTAINERS
New or one-trip shipping containers cross the sea from China and are available for purchase in RSA. There used to be two factories in South Africa that made new containers, but unfortunately didn’t survive. This has been a world-wide phenomenon with most shipping containers now manufactured in China.
USED SHIPPING CONTAINERS
Secondhand containers are a hot commodity when they reach the end of their shipping life. In South Africa there is an informal grading system which attempts to catogorise these containers according to their cosmetic appearance. Unfortunately this is not very scientific and is not consistent across suppliers.
Above is an example of a good B Grade container.
