## Built For Daily Use
- **Forklift pockets:** Both sizes, including the 40ft High Cube, have forklift pockets, so you can reposition the container on site without a crane.
- **Lock box:** A steel housing around the padlock that blocks bolt cutters and cutting tools. It's standard on every unit.
- **Extra vents:** More ventilation than a standard container reduces condensation, which helps protect stored goods, tools and equipment.
- **Easy-opening doors:** One-Trip doors and seals have done one voyage, not years of service, so they open and close without a fight.
## When To Choose One-Trip
- **Your permit requires it.** Some municipalities and HOAs only issue permits for One-Trip containers. Check your local rules before you buy. If One-Trip is required, we can deliver it.
- **It's in public view.** Retail sites, customer-facing installations and branded locations, where the container is part of how your business looks.
- **It's staying for the long term.** Site offices, permanent storage and structures you plan to keep for many years.
### One-Trip or Used? Compare Your Options
Both have their place. Here's how our three grades compare, so you can choose what fits your project:
| | One-Trip | CW (Cargo Worthy) | WWT (Wind & Water Tight) |
| ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------- |
| **Condition** | Built new, one voyage with cargo | Used, repaired to stricter standards than WWT | Used, wind and watertight guaranteed |
| **Signs of use** | Scratches, smaller dents, possible minor rust | Patches, dents, rust | Patches, dents, rust |
| **Best for** | Permit-restricted sites, public-facing and long-term use | Transport and heavy-duty storage | Storage and site use |
| **Price** | Highest | Mid | Lowest |
| **Sizes** | 20ft · 40ft HC | 20ft · 40ft · 40ft HC | 20ft · 40ft · 40ft HC |
#### The Benefits of Used
Used containers are always significantly cheaper. They also avoid the 26,030 lb of CO2 it takes to build one new 20ft container, by putting a box that already exists back to work. Read more about our [sustainability commitment](https://www.eveoncontainers.com/en-CA/sustainability1).
Frequently Asked Questions
- A One-Trip container is built new and used for a single voyage with cargo, usually from the factory in Asia to North America, before it is sold. It's the closest to new you can buy, but it has made one trip, so expect scratches, smaller dents and possibly some minor rust from handling on trucks, in depots and on the vessel.
- Almost. It was built new and has made one journey, so it can show minor signs of handling. Structurally and functionally, it's in near-new condition. A container that has never made a trip is rarely available in North America, because shipping it empty from the factory costs more than sending it with cargo.
- One-trip containers are typically less than a year old. They're built at the factory, loaded with cargo for a single voyage to the US, and then sold.
- Both are wind and watertight. A used WWT container is typically 10–15 years old and retired from the shipping lines, so you can expect visible dents and rust. A one-trip container has made just one voyage, so it arrives with minimal wear and its original paint. If you need affordable storage and looks don't matter, a used WWT container is the budget-friendly option. If condition and appearance count, go one-trip.
- Prices depend on your delivery location, container size and quantity. Request a quote or call [888-839-5614](tel:888-839-5614) for the exact price at your ZIP code.
- A used container has already served years in shipping, so it costs less to buy. Used containers are always significantly cheaper than One-Trip, and many storage and site projects run on used WWT or CW containers. Customer Care can help you compare both for your project.
- Yes, you can choose the color of your one-trip container. We currently offer ivory or mouse grey.
- Expect very little. Because it's only made one trip, your container arrives with its original paint and minimal wear. You may see minor scuffs or marks from loading and transport, but nothing like the dents and rust you'd find on a container that's spent 10–15 years at sea.
- Some municipalities and HOAs only allow one-trip containers. Check with your local permit office before ordering. If you're unsure, Customer Care can help you work out which grade to ask about.
- Yes. Every one-trip container comes with our [Limited Lifetime Warranty](https://www.eveoncontainers.com/en-CA/eveon-guarantee) at no extra cost.
