Buying Back Shipping Containers

If you happen to have a shipping container on hand that you no longer need, then CBOX Containers may be in the market to purchase it from you.

At CBOX, we aim to create and sell some of the best shipping containers on the market, but we also buy shipping containers in reasonable working condition for a variety of purposes. A global shortage of shipping containers in the wake of the pandemic has put a lot of pressure on businesses worldwide to source new containers for regular use. 

If your container is currently underutilized or going completely unused, then we can make you an offer to take it off your hands.

How the pandemic affected the supply chain

According to ABC, the pandemic led to most international airlines being all but grounded for an extended period of time. This unprecedented lockdown brought about lasting ramifications for the world's supply chain, signaling a sudden shift from air freight to seafaring alternatives. However, cargo ships were already operating near their limits when a pandemic-induced spike in demand for shipping containers struck. The result was a long-lasting shortage of essential shipping containers as individuals and organizations alike turned to shipping by sea en masse.

Another factor affecting the dramatic spike in shipping container demand is the number of traffic jams occurring at key ports the world over. Due to restrictions, lockdowns and quarantine measures, many essential workers such as longshoremen have been kept away from their jobs. This has put enormous strain on remaining personnel to perform those jobs in their absence. 

Unfortunately, this translates to slower processing speeds for the massive cargo ships that carry shipping containers back and forth. Instead of being emptied at their destination and made available for use, thousands of shipping containers are now sequestered on docked ships that are taking longer to be unloaded.
