Used shipping containers can vary in cost depending on location. However, the condition of a used container can vary widely. Some used containers will have little to no damage while others will have major rust and dents and significant damage to the floors that may not be suitable for a container home. If you decide to save money on a container and purchase a used wind and water tight container it may be in your best interest to get the container surveyed. A surveyed container means that it has been inspected to ensure there are no holes and that the floors are sturdy. The container will still have some minor dents and rust. If you are putting siding on your home then these minor dents and rusts may not be an issue for you. A survey will cost you about $150 to $250 and you will receive a certificate and pictures of your container before it is delivered to you which will be a great advantage to you. New one-trip containers are about double the cost of a used container however they are much newer, cleaner and in better condition than used and are much more suitable for a container home.
