Uses of Converted Containers
As the logistics industry keeps growing, demand for containers rises, which also means a high supply of used containers. Discarded old containers can regain practical value after conversion, and their range of applications is quite wide.
A container house is made through simple modifications so that a box once used mainly for cargo becomes suitable for people to live in. Transport is very convenient: call a truck, lift it on, and go. You can move it wherever you need—very flexible—without the cost and time of repeated disassembly and reassembly.
These container houses also have an attractive, clean look; good heat resistance; sound insulation that can even compare with solid brick buildings; and they fit eco-friendly, energy-saving, fast, and efficient building ideas. They can be stored and reused many times, and service life is relatively long. Thanks to these strengths, they are used in many places—dormitories, kitchens, bathrooms, warehouses, guard posts, meeting rooms, and more.
Used containers can serve as shipper-owned containers (SOC) for export cargo. When you export your own container together with the goods, you usually do not need a separate declaration—similar to customs clearance with a shipping line's box. Simply enter the container number on the declaration form. When booking space, however, you must note this specially. Some carriers then need no extra certificates or additional inspections, which is very convenient.
Used containers can work as temporary warehouses. When a factory suddenly receives a large order and storage is short, an old container can serve as temporary space. It can be returned at any time—flexible and convenient.
After conversion, used containers can serve as housing or offices. Second-hand boxes are relatively spacious and very sturdy; exterior paint is typically anti-seawater corrosion coating, so service life is long. Today, many countries abroad also use old containers for houses and villas.
Used containers can also serve as permanent or temporary cargo bodies, and they work well mounted on flatbed trucks.
