The team's expertise in suggesting the most suitable container for specific storage requirements was invaluable. It allowed me to get all the information needed within 10 minutes and make a well educated decission. The choice I made to go with a 40ft High Cube container instead of a Standard was great. It gives me that extra ft in height for only 100 dollars extra.
Online transaction process was user-friendly, with clear instructions and secure payment options. After the payment I received an email with potential delivery dates and door orientation preference. Once selected my options, I received a delivery confirmation and container arrived on the agreed date. Surprised by such a smooth process in containers industry.
Highly recommend. We ordered 20ft One-Trip container which arrived in a brand new condition, not a single scratch or sign of wear and tear.
We had a special order of 6x20ft New Containers that had to be delivered during the same day. It seems that it was no issue for them to complete and the order was fulfilled 3 days after placing it.
