Shipping Container Suppliers in Colorado

Healdworks grades every box before it sells it, and puts the grade in writing. You get one-trip, cargo-worthy, or wind and water tight, plus a four step condition scale that runs from very good down to poor. Each unit gets a five point check on the doors, seals, roof, floor, and walls, then gets photographed. That matters more in Colorado than most places, because you are often buying a box you cannot drive out to see. The company started as a welding shop in 2000 and still does its own cutting and fabrication. It runs four yards in Colorado, more than any other container seller in the state, and hauls with its own trucks.

Complete Container Services stocks sizes most yards will not touch. Alongside the usual 20ft and 40ft, it carries 10ft units and 45ft high cubes, plus reefers, open sides, and double doors. If your pad is short or your load is odd, that range is the first reason to call. The yard has sat at the same Denver address since 1981, and the family still runs it. It is also a working depot for several ocean carrier chassis pools, so boxes move through the lot constantly rather than sitting on it. You can drive up and take one away the same day instead of waiting on a delivery slot.

Zircon Container Co builds and rewelds its own units in its own shop. The legal name is Zircon Manufacturing, and the crew came out of steel fabrication and industrial construction. Send them a drawing and they quote it back with the changes they think you actually want. That covers office builds, storage and office combos, and one off jobsite units wired to 30 or 50 amp. The family has been at it since 1995, working from Ignacio in the far southwest corner and a second lot in Colorado Springs. Two yards that far apart cut a lot of miles off a delivery, and in Colorado the drive is usually the expensive part of the buy.

Storm's Specialty Services keeps over 500 units on the ground at Grand Junction. On the Western Slope that number is the whole story, because a yard with real stock means you are not waiting on a box to be trucked over the passes from the Front Range. Three generations of the Storm family have run it since 1991. They deliver as far as Steamboat Springs, Aspen, Telluride, and Craig, and they quote the haul inside the price instead of adding it at the end. That is worth knowing in mountain country, where freight can move a container's cost by hundreds of dollars. They also cut and fit units in house for offices and sheds.

Warehouse Options posts what its containers cost right on the front page. You can see the units it has for sale, with a price on each one, before you speak to anybody. Most yards in Colorado make you fill in a form and wait, so this saves a day and tells you straight away whether the budget works. Glenn Rowley's family has been selling boxes out of Colorado Springs since 1991 and bought out the other partners in 2000. Delivery runs on a side loader, which sets a box down level without needing the long straight run a tilt bed wants. That helps on the tight lots and sloped ground common south of Denver.

Container Liquidators spells out what each grade means before you buy. One-trip, cargo-worthy, and wind and water tight each get a plain description of the rust, dents, and door wear you should expect, so nobody turns up surprised when the truck arrives. The company sells three things and sells them well. It stocks 20ft, 40ft, and 40ft high cubes, new or used. There is no fabrication shop and no reefer stock. What there is instead is a decade of repeat sales out of the Erie yard and a very long run of buyers reporting the box matched the grade. If you want a straight box at a fair price, that record is the point.

Fort Collins Mobile Storage runs its own trucks and its own drivers rather than booking a hauler. That matters when a box has to reach Estes Park in March or a job site in Wellington with one narrow way in. The yard covers 12 acres north of town and holds containers alongside more than 200 semi trailers, so there is usually something on hand in 10ft, 20ft, 40ft, or high cube. They sell new one-trip units and used ones, with double door and side opening options. The family has been hauling and storing for northern Colorado for more than 40 years, and they deliver well beyond it.
