Container Trade has been in the shipping container business since 2008. We sell new containers from China and used containers retired from sea service, rent containers by the day or long term, and sell spare parts for reefer containers. Most customers use a container as storage: it can be set up in a day, with no construction or approvals.

Purchasing, storage, sales and rental are handled by companies of one group:

New containers from China

Container Trade places production orders directly with leading specialised factories in China.

  • Condition grade: every used container gets a condition grade: the higher the number, the more wear. The grade and what it means are shown on each product page, so you know in advance what you are paying for.
  • OEM/ODM: new containers come from China after a single voyage with cargo (one trip), so they show almost no wear. On request we source a container of the size and condition you need.
  • International accreditation: BIC certificate and registered owner prefixes for multimodal shipping.

Terminal network and transparency

We run a developed depot and warehouse infrastructure:

  • Containers in stock are held at 13 depots across Ukraine and at partner yards in ports in Europe, Turkey and China. The picker on the homepage shows current yards and the delivered price to your city.
  • Partner warehouses abroad (Europe, Asia, Middle East).
  • Deal transparency: Before you buy, we send photos of the actual container, and you can inspect it at the yard.
