Why Matthews Containers Ship From Charleston
Used shipping container inventory reaches Charleston directly through the Port of Charleston’s container terminals, where ocean vessels discharge boxes and SC Ports links cargo to inland markets through nearby and inland rail facilities. That supply corridor belongs to Charleston, and it is why Matthews containers are served from the Charleston depot.
Matthews is roughly 200 miles from Charleston. Being connected to the Port of Charleston matters because used units can move through an established gateway instead of being sourced from farther inland. For the buyer, the delivery cost for the address is handled by the ZIP check, so the total is clear before checkout.
Local Economic Factors in Matthews, NC

As a town, Matthews has buyers who often need straightforward storage space for job sites, properties, business inventory and moves.
- Container supply. Charleston receives used shipping container inventory through the Port of Charleston, according to South Carolina Ports.

20ft or 40ft Shipping Container for Sale in Matthews: How to Choose
A 20ft container is usually the access-constrained choice. It weighs 4,914 lbs, is 8 feet wide and has a standard exterior height of 8 feet 6 inches. It works well when the site has tighter space, a shorter driveway or a placement area that needs less straight-line delivery room.
A 40ft container is the cost-per-square-foot choice when you have the longer straight run it needs. It weighs 8,159 lbs, while a 40ft High Cube weighs 8,747 lbs and keeps the same footprint with 9 feet 6 inches of exterior height. These container sizes follow ISO 668, ISO 1161 and ISO 1496.
Delivery in Matthews: What Your Site Needs
Eveon delivers by tilt bed, so the container slides off the back of the truck onto your prepared spot; flatbed costs less but you offload it yourself. For a 20ft container, plan for 80 to 100 feet of run-out space. For a 40ft container, plan for about 120 feet. The truck also needs 12 to 14 feet of width and 14 to 16 feet of overhead clearance.
Surfaces that work are dry compacted gravel, dry compacted dirt, asphalt and concrete. Surfaces that do not are mud, sand, soft grass and sloped ground. The site should be level because an unlevel placement can make the container doors bind. If you are unsure about access, Eveon can confirm delivery from photographs before you order.

Do You Need a Permit for a Shipping Container in Matthews?
Private-property containers are generally treated as accessory storage, so the rules that matter are usually zoning items such as duration, setbacks and screening. In Matthews, start with the Matthews Planning & Development Department. For county-level questions, ask the Mecklenburg County Land Use and Environmental Services Agency.
If a container or delivery occupies a public right of way, ask the local authority that controls that space before scheduling delivery. Requirements can change by property and placement, so check with your own jurisdiction before you order.
