The most popular container size in South Carolina. It fits most residential driveways, holds about as much as a two-car garage, and arrives at your address with delivery already in the price.
The 20ft standard container, sometimes called a TEU (Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit) or a conex box, is the global standard in intermodal shipping. It is the most widely available container size and the most practical choice for most South Carolina residential and small-business customers.
At 20 feet long and 8 feet wide it fits comfortably in a standard driveway and can be placed on most lots without special equipment or extensive site preparation. The steel handles what South Carolina weather brings, including tropical systems and their inland remnants and Severe thunderstorms with straight line wind and hail, common statewide from March through August, Inland flooding, which is the follow-on to nearly every tropical system here and the reason the October 2015 event is still the reference point across the Midlands, Tornadoes, with a spring season and a smaller second season in late autumn, most often across the coastal plain and the Midlands, Winter ice on north facing grades in the Upstate and the foothills, where a shaded slope can hold ice after the rest of the county has thawed, Seismic activity, which is a real South Carolina question rather than a southeastern afterthought. The 1886 earthquake near Charleston is recorded by the United States Geological Survey as the most damaging in the southeastern United States, Salt air along the coast and the sea islands, which is a corrosion question rather than a storm question and is answered with paint touch up rather than anchoring.

Inspected and certified to keep wind and water out.

The interior stays dry, the doors seal tight, and the floor is structurally solid. For a full breakdown of every grade we sell, see our container condition guide.
Best for: General storage, construction sites, farm use, any application where appearance matters less than value.
Warranty: 5 year.
It made a single ocean crossing from the factory and is essentially brand new. Minimal cosmetic marks from that one voyage, clean and dry interior, excellent floor condition, like-new paint. It costs more than used WWT, and it is the cleanest container you can buy short of a factory-new unit.
Best for: Conversions, food-adjacent storage, sensitive storage, anyone who wants the best-looking unit.
Warranty: 10 year structural and no-leak.
Renovations and moves on Charleston peninsula lots and in the older West Ashley and James Island neighborhoods, where there is nowhere to stage material and no garage to empty into.
Contractor tool and material storage on job sites across Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester, Richland, Lexington, Greenville and Spartanburg counties, replacing the daily load in and load out.
Farm, timber and hunt club storage across the Pee Dee, the Sandhills and the Lowcountry, where the container is often the only lockable building on the parcel.
Upstate sites that will never take a 40ft: on mill village streets and foothill drives, two 20ft boxes place where one long box cannot, and give you two doors and two locations.
Coastal and island property on Johns, Wadmalaw, Sullivan's, Isle of Palms, Folly and Hilton Head, where steel and a good lock handle salt air better than a wood shed.
Storm season readiness along the coast, keeping records, generators, tools and irreplaceable belongings dry, locked and in one place you can reach quickly.
