WWT / CW Shipping Containers for Sale: 
Affordable Wind and Water Tight and Cargo Worthy Options Near You

WWT (Wind and Water Tight):
WWT containers are used containers that are guaranteed to be weatherproof. They ensure no leaks, holes, or damage that would allow wind, water, or pests to enter, making them perfect for storage.

CW (Cargo Worthy):
Historically, CW containers were deemed structurally sound for international shipping and met CSC (Convention for Safe Containers) requirements. However, CW does not automatically mean the container is ready for shipment anymore. Containers must now be inspected and recertified before they can be shipped overseas. The primary difference today is that CW containers are generally better maintained and cosmetically more appealing than WWT units.

1. Cost-Effective and Functional
   • Both WWT and CW containers are affordable and durable solutions for on-site storage or non-shipping uses.
   • If you’re looking for a low-cost shipping container, either grade will meet your needs without compromising on weatherproofing.
2. Minimal Differences
   • In today’s market, the difference between WWT and CW is mainly cosmetic. A CW container may look cleaner, with fewer dents and rust, but both are structurally sound for storage.
3. Versatility
   • Ideal for a variety of uses, including storage sheds, temporary offices, and DIY modifications.
   • Suitable for shipping after obtaining a valid CSC certification, but inspection and repairs may be needed.
4. Sustainable and Eco-Friendly
   • Repurposing WWT or CW containers reduces waste and promotes sustainable practices.

• Business Owners: Secure inventory or equipment with weatherproof storage.
  
  
• DIY Enthusiasts: Create container homes, workshops, or pop-up shops.
  
  
• Exporters and Logistics Companies: Ship cargo after inspection and certification.
  
  
• Farmers: Store agricultural tools, machinery, or feed securely.

• Certification is Required: CW containers must undergo a thorough inspection to obtain or renew a valid CSC plate before they can be shipped internationally.
  
  
• Better Appearance: CW containers are often in better cosmetic condition than WWT containers, but this does not guarantee they are shipping-ready.
  
  
• Additional Costs for Shipping Prep: Be prepared for possible repairs or upgrades needed to meet CSC standards for international freight.
