When You Buy a Shipping Container in Houston, TX From Professionals, the Whole Process is Simpler

Since 2015 we’ve been offering new and used shipping containers for sale in the Houston, TX area, and we’ve helped thousands of customers get a conex container delivered for their storage needs. We believe that you can’t talk anyone into a shipping container, so none of our sales reps earn a direct commission on your order and you can even buy your shipping container directly on our website if you prefer (remember we’re always a phone call away if you have any questions).

What makes Western different is the team of professionals that will be coordinating your container delivery once you place your order. We work directly with the largest intermodal container companies in the world, and we’re one of the largest buyers of decommissioned shipping containers in North America. We also have years of history with professional haulers that have the proper equipment to deliver your container directly onto the ground safely, unlike some of our competitors who tend to just go with the cheapest available hauler. We also stand behind our containers with a 3-year structural warranty (even though fewer than 1% of our customers ever need to use it).

Houston has undergone substantial growth in industries such as energy, petrochemicals, and healthcare, experiencing a heightened demand for shipping containers. We pride ourselves on providing our customers with reliable and cost-effective shipping containers for their storage or shipping needs. Our containers are secure, leak-free, and perfect for inventory storage or long-haul shipping.

Quality Used Shipping Containers For Sale: Houston, TX

Western works directly with some of the largest container providers in North America, as well as some of the best regional providers, to ensure the used shipping container you receive is a high-quality Conex steel storage container. These durable containers all come with doors that seal, are leak-free, and the floors are free from holes and strong enough to support a small forklift.

We’ll ensure your shipping container has a lockbox or an upgraded locking system that allows you to add your own lock.

Why Don’t We Make You Call for a Shipping Container Quote?

We know what a hassle it can be to call for a shipping container quote, as well as how annoying it can be to fill out a form on what appears to be a conex container sale site and consequently be bombarded with salespeople from third-party companies because your information was sold as a lead.  Unlike the big guys, we offer shipping containers for sale online with prices posted on our website.  Why do we do this when other companies won’t? Simple, we know our prices are fair, and well below what you’d see with our large corporate competitors.
