A-Grade & B-Grade Shipping Containers
We grade our shipping containers based on quality. A-Grade containers have minimal defects like scratches or dents. They’re fantastic for modifications or refurbishments and can suit various building applications.
B-Grade containers may have small defects like scuff marks and bumps. However, they will still be suitable for storage and transport. Both our A- and B-Grade containers are structurally sound, wind-resistant, watertight and vermin-proof.

Finding The Best Quality Shipping Containers On The Market
Finding high-quality shipping containers is easy if you know what to look for! Ideally, shipping containers should be 100% watertight and structurally secure to prevent damage to the interior.
It’s also a smart idea to look for a seller or manufacturer offering custom modifications. These modifications can make creating your dream living space or workspace easier than ever.
At East Coast Containers, we offer a broad range of shipping container modifications, including extra doors and windows. We can also add insulation, ventilation, air conditioning, and even electrical fit-outs to make your new container as comfortable as possible.
