At Ontime Conveyance, we offer shipping containers in different sizes, configurations, and conditions for a range of storage, transportation, and other practical applications. This page explains common container types, condition classifications, product specifications, and considerations to review before placing an order.
Product availability, dimensions, condition, features, included equipment, and other specifications may vary by individual container. Customers should review the relevant product listing and contact us to confirm any important details before purchasing.
1. Understanding Container Types
Shipping containers are available in different configurations for different applications. The appropriate container depends on your intended use, space requirements, access needs, and any applicable technical or regulatory requirements.
Depending on current availability, our product range may include the following types:
- Standard Shipping Containers: Enclosed containers used for storage and cargo-related purposes.
- High Cube Containers: Containers with greater external height than standard-height containers of comparable length.
- Double-Door or Tunnel Containers: Containers configured with doors at both ends, where specified in the product listing.
- Open Top Containers: Containers with an open-top configuration for particular loading requirements.
- Hard-Top Containers: Containers with a rigid top configuration, where available.
- Side-Opening Containers: Containers configured with side access, as specified for the individual product.
- Ventilated Containers: Containers designed with ventilation openings where specified.
- Flat Rack Containers: Containers with an open platform-style structure and end frames for particular cargo and handling requirements.
- Refrigerated Containers: Containers equipped with refrigeration systems where included and stated in the product listing.
- Insulated Containers: Containers with insulation features as described in the relevant product information.
- Modified Containers: Containers that have been altered from their original configuration. The type and extent of modifications depend on the individual product.
- Custom-Configured Containers: Containers that may be modified according to a customer’s requested specifications. Customers can contact Ontime Conveyance to discuss their requirements and request a quotation. The available modifications, scope of work, specifications, pricing, and delivery arrangements will depend on the individual request and must be confirmed before the order proceeds.
- Storage, Office, Workshop, and Other Modified Units: Containers or container-based units configured for particular applications, where available.
Not every configuration is available in every size or condition, and not every requested modification may be possible. Review the individual product listing or contact Ontime Conveyance to confirm the configuration and features of a specific container or to discuss a custom request.
2. Understanding Container Conditions
Container condition identifies the category assigned to an individual product. Condition descriptions should be read alongside the product’s photographs, specifications, and other available information.
New/One-Trip Containers
New/One-Trip containers are listed under their applicable product condition categories. The transport history and condition of an individual container should be confirmed from the information provided for that product.
Review each listing for the stated condition, dimensions, configuration, features, included equipment, and other available specifications.
Used Containers
Used containers have previously been used. Their appearance, condition, features, and included components may vary between individual units.
Review the available product information carefully. If a particular detail is important to your intended use, contact us to request clarification before ordering.
Other Condition Descriptions
Where another condition or product classification is stated in a listing, refer to the description provided for that specific item. Do not assume that products in different condition categories have identical characteristics.
Important: A condition label does not, by itself, guarantee a particular appearance, structural rating, certification, inspection history, or suitability for every application.
3. Dimensions and Product Specifications
Container dimensions and specifications vary according to product type, model, configuration, and individual unit.
Before purchasing, review the relevant product page for available information, which may include:
- Nominal container length, width, and height
- Internal or external dimensions, where stated
- Door configuration and access arrangements
- Container condition
- Construction or material details
- Included features, equipment, and modifications
- Stated weight, capacity, or other technical specifications
- Refrigeration, insulation, ventilation, or other specialized features, where applicable
Dimensions may be presented as nominal measurements. If your project requires precise internal or external measurements, doorway clearance, floor dimensions, weight limits, or other specific measurements, contact us for confirmation before placing an order.
Do not assume that a specification applies to a particular container unless it is stated in the relevant product information or confirmed by Ontime Conveyance.
4. Product Condition, Photographs, and Inspection Information
Product photographs and descriptions are provided to help customers review the listed offering. They should be considered alongside the written specifications and condition information for the individual product.
Container condition, appearance, and features may vary between individual units, including units within the same general category.
Before placing an order, review the available product details and contact Ontime Conveyance if you need clarification about:
- Visible condition or appearance
- Dimensions and configuration
- Doors, access points, or other features
- Included equipment or components
- Modifications or additional fittings
- Inspection records or supporting documentation, where applicable
Do not assume that a container has undergone a particular inspection, repair, testing procedure, or certification unless this is specifically stated and confirmed for that product.
Any inspection information, technical records, or other documentation should be confirmed for the individual container when required for your intended use.
5. Container Standards and Certification
Some container applications may be subject to technical, transportation, building, workplace, lifting, installation, or other regulatory requirements. The applicable requirements depend on the container’s design, condition, intended use, location, and any modifications.
A container’s size, type, or condition classification does not, by itself, establish that it meets a particular industry standard or is certified, approved, or rated for a specific purpose.
If you require a container for international cargo transportation, lifting, structural use, installation, modification, or another regulated application, identify the applicable requirements before purchasing.
Where a particular certification, inspection record, rating, or supporting document is required, contact us to confirm whether the relevant information is available for the specific product.
Ontime Conveyance does not represent that every container listed on this website meets every possible standard, certification, rating, or regulatory requirement. Customers should confirm the requirements relevant to their intended application before ordering.
6. Refrigerated, Insulated, and Specialized Containers
Refrigerated, insulated, and other specialized containers may have features or equipment that differ from those of standard storage containers.
Where a product includes refrigeration equipment, insulation, ventilation, electrical components, or other specialized features, refer to the individual listing for the information expressly provided about that product.
Do not assume that a refrigeration system, electrical component, temperature range, operating capability, insulation performance, or other technical feature is included unless the listing states it.
If the intended use depends on a particular operating specification, equipment configuration, temperature requirement, electrical connection, or other technical detail, contact Ontime Conveyance to request confirmation before purchasing.
Customers should obtain appropriate professional advice and confirm applicable installation, operating, maintenance, safety, and regulatory requirements for specialized equipment or applications.
7. Modified Containers and Intended Use
Some containers may be modified or configured for uses beyond their original configuration. The nature and extent of modifications depend on the individual product.
Review the product listing for any stated modifications, included features, access arrangements, and other relevant specifications.
Do not assume that a modified container is approved for structural use, occupation, electrical installation, plumbing, or another regulated application unless the relevant approval or supporting documentation has been confirmed.
Customers planning modifications, installation, or specialized use should identify the applicable requirements and obtain appropriate professional advice before proceeding.
8. Choosing a Container for Your Requirements
When comparing containers, consider the following questions before placing an order:
- What will you store, transport, or use the container for?
- What internal and external dimensions are required?
- What door configuration or access arrangements are necessary?
- Is the listed condition suitable for your requirements?
- Are specific features, modifications, or components required?
- Does the intended use require a particular certification, rating, inspection, or approval?
- Are there site-access, unloading, placement, or delivery constraints?
- Do any specialized components require particular operating or installation conditions?
If a specific measurement, feature, certification, or other requirement is essential, obtain confirmation before ordering rather than relying solely on a product title or photograph.
9. Product Availability and Ordering
Products, configurations, sizes, conditions, and included features may vary according to current availability.
The individual product listing provides the relevant product information available on our website. Review the product description, stated specifications, price, and applicable order and delivery information before completing your purchase.
If information you need is missing or unclear, contact Ontime Conveyance before placing the order. Any material product detail that is important to your purchase should be confirmed before you proceed.
Orders, payment, delivery, cancellations, returns, and refunds are subject to the applicable Terms and Conditions and the information provided during the ordering process.
10. Delivery and Site Access Considerations
Before ordering, consider whether the delivery location can accommodate the container’s dimensions and the arrangements required for delivery, unloading, and placement.
Customers should identify relevant access restrictions, site conditions, placement requirements, and any special handling needs before completing an order.
Delivery availability, charges, estimated delivery times, and other applicable arrangements are governed by the information provided during checkout and the applicable Shipping and Delivery terms.
If the delivery location has restricted access or requires special arrangements, contact Ontime Conveyance before ordering to clarify the available options and any additional requirements.
11. Product Information and Customer Questions
Customers are encouraged to review the product title, description, condition, stated specifications, photographs, price, and delivery information before purchasing.
If you need clarification about a container’s dimensions, condition, configuration, included equipment, modifications, certification, or other material details, contact us before placing your order.
