Shipping Containers For Sale

Every day, thousands of containers arrive at seaports from countries all around the world.

They are carried aboard liner ships, which offer regularly scheduled service on fixed routes – much like a bus or train service does.

Each shipment represents a specific supply chain, whether it is patio furniture from Thailand bound for a Milan retailer, avocados from Chile destined for a supermarket in Berlin.

or – as illustrated here – shoes shipped from China to an athletic supply store in Europe or North America.

Every supply chain is unique and involves the timely and accurate transfer of goods between various modes of transport.

Goods transported by ocean containers on liner ships can be placed into the container at the factory origin, farm or at other locations where cargo is consolidated.

The container is locked and sealed so the goods can remain safely secured inside the container and transported with unprecedented efficiency until it arrives at the purchasers’ warehouse, factory, or store.

For this reason, more than 50 percent of the value of goods moved internationally by sea is now moving in containers on liner ships.

Benefits of container shipping

There are numerous benefits to container shipping, one of the key ones being increased efficiency.

A large container ship could carry over 200,000 sea containers in a single year, and around 8000 on a single voyage. It would take hundreds of aircraft and fleets of trucks to get anywhere near moving the same amount of freight.

This is also why Ocean Container shipping is the most environmentally friendly method of transportation.

Producing less exhaust gas emissions than rail freight, road freight or air freight.

Vetting agency RightShip has developed an online “GHG Emissions Rating” as a systemised way for the industry to compare a ship’s CO2 emissions to similar sized vessels.

The use of higher rated ships can deliver significantly lower CO2 emissions across the voyage length.
