Step 2: You Receive Our Quote

We email you back the same business day with our quote provided we receive your quote request by 4:00 PM EST, Monday through Friday.

We will email you back the next business day with our quote if we receive your quote request later than 4:00 PM EST, Monday through Friday.

Our quote is based on current inventory levels at the depot site(s) closest to your delivery location. Inventory at each depot site is subject to change.  Prices are based on current availability. Once current inventory is depleted, prices may vary with the next inventory replenishment. 

We offer some of the most competitive wholesale pricing on the market by quoting according to current inventory availability. 

Step 3: Your Purchase

You provide us with a purchase order or email indicating your intent to purchase. 

We will confirm your purchase by reserving your container size and grade at the nearest depot location. You’ll get the next container off the stack at the depot that meets your order criteria.

We can’t guarantee a specific color, but all of our containers are warrantied to be wind and watertight at the time of delivery. 

We require payment in full at this point before moving to Step 4 Delivery or Pick-Up. 

Our Operations Team will be in touch within one business day to confirm your order and accept payment.

Once your order has been paid for in full, they will coordinate the logistics of your shipping container delivery or depot pick-up. 

Step 4: Ground Level Container Delivery or Depot Pick-Up

For delivery:  We work with professional local transport companies with specialized equipment to deliver your container directly to the ground.

You’ll know what day your container delivery is scheduled for within a day or two of placing your order, and the driver will give you a call when they’re en route on the day of delivery.

Plan on 4 to 7 business days for shipping container purchases.

For depot pick-up:  After purchase, we will provide you with a release number and pick-up information. You can then immediately go to the designated depot on the release and have the container loaded on your truck.

We’re happy to load your truck at the depot if you have the proper equipment to safely transport a shipping container. 

Please be aware you are required to comply with all DOT and OSHA rules while at the depot and Container Management, Inc. cannot be liable for any issues during transport.
