Our Process: From Question to Delivered Container

OUR PROCESS

From first question to a container on the ground.

Bigfoot handles the learning. Container One handles the order. Here is how the two fit together.

FIVE STEPS

Understand the size

Start with square footage and exterior dimensions, then check interior and door-opening measurements against what you plan to keep inside. Compare all sizes.

Choose a condition grade

New / 1-Trip, Cargo Worthy, Wind & Water Tight or Economy — each with its own warranty terms. Function first, appearance second. Read the grades.

Check delivery access

Measure from the placement point: 110 feet of straight space for a 20ft container, 130 feet for a 40ft, with 15 feet of driving height, 22 feet of unloading height and 10 feet of width. Delivery guide.

Request pricing in writing

Send your ZIP code and placement details. A Container One specialist confirms the grade, the delivery location, what is included and whether any payment or delivery-related fees apply. How pricing works.

Confirm and take delivery

Keep the quote, invoice and written delivery terms. Container One coordinates the delivery to your site.

DUAL INSPECTION PROCESS

A dual inspection process gives buyers an additional quality-control checkpoint before delivery. The goal is simple: help confirm that the container being delivered matches the condition and functional grade that was ordered.

The specific checkpoints will be published here once the operational workflow is confirmed.

KEEP THE PAPERWORK

Get the container grade, price, delivery terms and warranty in writing, and keep invoices, written quotes and communication records for the whole purchase.
