Why choose shipping containers from HZ-containers.com?
Shipping containers are designed to withstand extreme conditions during sea transport. This means they are highly resistant to weathering, vandalism and wear and tear. Their robust construction ensures a long service life and minimal maintenance requirements. You can always choose from 4 standard types of containers in our range:
- IICL6 (new) – high quality, containers after only one sea voyage in great condition (almost like new)
- IICL5 (great condition) – still high quality, containers after multiple sea voyages (may have some scratches and signs of use already, but still in very good condition
- CW (Cargo Worthy) – used shipping containers that have had many sea voyages, but still have a valid CSC label for onward transportation, are still tight and not leaky (this is a guarantee of CW quality)
- AS IS (end-of-life containers) – which are sold as they are, hence the name. These containers can no longer be used for shipping, they may have leaks, minor holes, rust etc. but the quality always varies.
It depends on what you need to use the shipping container for. If it’s for storing tyres, a retired container is quite sufficient. If you want storage but for cheaper money, then a CW container is an option. For conversions, IICL5 quality is often used and where aesthetics and longevity are important then IICL6 containers.

Shipping container types
Roughly 80% of everything you own traveled to you inside a steel box. Shipping containers—also called cargo containers, ISO containers, or “conex” boxes—are the backbone of global trade, carrying about 90% of the world’s non-bulk cargo across oceans, rails, and highways. Yet a “shipping container” is not one single object. It is a family of specialized steel boxes, each engineered for a specific kind of cargo: some vent, some freeze, some open from the top, and some have no walls at all.
