Shipping Policy

Effective Date: October 17, 2025

1. Overview

At Containers Exchange, we offer delivery services for shipping containers as an added convenience for our customers. All deliveries are handled by trusted, independent third-party carriers. Typical delivery times range from 7–10 business days after purchase, depending on your location and delivery conditions.

2. Delivery Options & Estimated Costs

We offer two main delivery options:

  • Tilt-Bed Delivery: Estimated at $5–$6 per mile. The container is lowered directly onto your site.
  • Flatbed Delivery: Estimated at $2–$3 per mile. Requires the customer to provide unloading equipment such as a crane or large forklift.

Customers may also choose to pick up their container(s) directly to save on delivery costs. By using our delivery or pick-up services, you agree to hold Containers Exchange, its employees, and agents harmless from any liability related to delivery or transport.

3. Delivery Site Requirements

Shipping container delivery requires the use of large trucks and trailers, which may weigh over 30,000 lbs and measure up to 70 feet in length.

It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the delivery route and drop-off area are safe, accessible, and suitable for delivery. Customers must confirm the site can safely accommodate the truck and trailer without risk of getting stuck, causing injury, or property damage.

Any additional fees incurred due to site access issues including dry run charges, towing, or detention time will be the customer’s responsibility. Containers Exchange is not liable for any losses or delays caused by delivery complications.

4. Delivery Cancellations & Rescheduling

Deliveries may be postponed or canceled without any charge if at least 48 hours’ notice is provided. Cancellations or rescheduling made with less than 48 hours’ notice are subject to a $300 cancellation fee.

5. Service Areas

Containers Exchange currently provides delivery services across the United States and Canada. We do not offer direct international shipping; however, we can provide certified containers for export and connect you with freight forwarding companies for international arrangements.

6. Liability Disclaimer

By arranging delivery or pick-up through Containers Exchange, the customer acknowledges and accepts full responsibility for site accessibility and delivery readiness. Containers Exchange and its affiliates shall not be held liable for damages, delays, or losses resulting from delivery services provided by third-party carriers.
