How buying on Prime Marketplace works
Verified dealers
Every dealer on Prime Marketplace completes identity and business verification and commits to listing, photo, and condition-grading standards before they can sell here.
Fair Market Index
Each listing is benchmarked against comparable size and condition units. The detail page shows where that container sits in the range so you can see whether the ask is fair before you buy.
Pay on delivery
You confirm the order online and pay the dealer (typically by check) when the container is on your site. No card charge upfront. If the unit is not delivered, you owe nothing.
Scam Shield
Dealers photograph the actual unit before it ships. If the delivered container does not match the listed grade or those photos, refuse it on delivery and you pay nothing.
Condition grades, in plain language
Dealers grade every container on the same five-tier rubric. There is no separate public grades page yet — the definitions below are the same ones used on listings and in Scam Shield.
- One Trip (NEW)
- Factory-new container with one international voyage. Should show minimal to no wear.
- Cargo Worthy+ (CW+)
- Above-average used container. Structurally certified with cosmetic condition well above CW minimums.
- Cargo Worthy (CW)
- Standard used container meeting ISO certification for international shipping. The industry baseline.
- Wind & Water Tight (WWT)
- Retired from shipping but still weatherproof. Good for on-site storage at a lower price point.
- As-Is
- Sold without warranty or condition guarantee. Buyer inspects and accepts current state. Ideal for modification projects.

I searched "buy shipping container near me." How do I check delivery to my ZIP?
Open a listing and enter your five-digit ZIP. The estimate is calculated from that container's listed origin, not a generic local pack. That is how near-me demand is answered without inventing inventory for every ZIP.
Do I need a permit to place a container in Los Angeles?
Placement rules vary by site and jurisdiction — city, county, and HOA requirements are not the same. Check with the authority that governs your lot before delivery day. We do not publish legal advice here.
