ECONOMY WIND & WATERTIGHT (CARGO WORTHY)

As per the name, our Economy Wind and Watertight Container is our best value graded container for its condition and is still watertight, weatherproof and vermin proof. In this grade, the container is cosmetically inferior to the standard and Premium Repainted containers and will show more signs of wear, tear, dents, surface rust, patches and other damage. This grade of container is excellent for short to mid-term commercial storage, trade storage or domestic storage where longevity and appearance are a low priority.
See below for shipping container sizes and capacity
Economy Wind & Watertight Containers are not recommended for rail and ocean freight and are better suited to static storage requirements or the budget-conscious.

Wollondilly Council needed a container to be delivered to a tricky site to enable our local SES team to store important emergency relief equipment. We needed the container in a short space of time and at a competitive price. Containers First delivered on both of these points and they provided great communication and customer service throughout the process
