Four guarantees, in writing
Walk our lot at 321 Route 10, Piermont and choose the container you want, or we send photos and video of your specific unit before it leaves the yard. No representative photos, no bait-and-switch.
We confirm the drop spot with you before delivery day. If we can't set the container where we agreed, for whatever reason, you owe nothing that day — and we'll attempt re-delivery for free if it makes sense.
Plans change. Sell the container back to us for 80% of the container's purchase price — the container only, not tax or delivery — any time in your first 12 months.
Wind & Watertight units carry a 5-year warranty, Cargo Worthy 10 years, and one-trip containers 30 years — in writing, on every sale. On a used unit that means watertight with a solid floor: no leaks, no rodents, and a floor that holds up to normal use for the warranty term.
