Buyers can choose from New/One-Trip, Used, Wind & Water Tight (WWT), Cargo Worthy, and specialty containers with accurate grading.

Nashville deliveries often involve a mix of urban development, suburban neighborhoods, and rural properties.

Sizes of Conex Containers for Sale

Container Sales Group offers a range of conex container sizes to fit different storage, construction, and project needs. Our most popular options include 20-ft and 40-ft containers, available in both new and used conditions. If you’re planning to use a container for a home or business project, our  shipping container uses can help you explore common applications and ideas.


20ft. containers are the most commonly used size. If you are looking to transport heavy cargo like machinery or raw materials, this may be the right container size for you.

40ft. containers are, unsurprisingly, best for transporting bulkier items that may not fit into 20ft. containers, including furniture, vehicles, or large clothing shipments.

If you need even more space than is offered by a standard 40ft. container, consider a 40ft. high cube, which offers an extra foot of vertical space compared to the 40ft. standard.

Shipping Container Delivery
in Nashville

Tilt Body Truck

Container Sales Group uses a tilt body truck (also known as a roll-off truck) for delivering shipping containers less than 200 miles. The bed of this truck will hydraulicly lift behind the truck cab at an angle to let the container slide off with ease as the truck pulls forward. This means that the driver will arrive on-site and set the container on the ground with no additional equipment.

Flatbed Truck

For long delivery distances over 200 miles, Container Sales Group uses a flatbed truck or step-deck trailer which are typically the most available and affordable transportation method. 20 & 40ft Standard (8’ 6” high) containers are loaded on a flatbed truck, tightly secured, and driven to the delivery site. Any High Cube (9’ 6” high) shipping containers must be delivered on a Step-Deck Trailer, because of highway height restrictions. The only downside to a flatbed or step-deck truck is it requires a forklift or crane operator to remove the shipping container from the truck at the delivery site.
