Shipping Container Suppliers in South Carolina

SiteBox Storage runs its South Carolina yard off Augusta Arbor Way in Piedmont, and it lets you see the actual box before you call. Their site lists more than 80 units sitting in that yard, each one with its own container number, its grade and its price. You can see a cargo-worthy 20ft or a one-trip 40ft high cube, check what it costs, and add it to a cart. Mobile Modular Portable Storage also posts priced stock in South Carolina, but not the grade of each unit. SiteBox has been trading since 1998 and keeps roughly a thousand ground-level boxes across the Greenville service area.

DP Containers has been selling boxes out of its Greer yard since 1996. The grades are spelled out plainly on the site. Cargo-worthy, wind and water tight, and as-is each get a definition, and an outside certified surveyor signs off on the cargo-worthy units before they go out. That matters when you are buying sight unseen and the difference between two grades is a few hundred dollars. They stock 20ft and 40ft boxes, and the shop does its own modification, painting and repair work. Delivery clearances are published too, so you know you need 55 feet of straight run for a 20ft and 110 feet for a 40ft.

Transocean Equipment Management sells to every branch of the armed forces, to government agencies and to Fortune 500 shippers, and it does it from a ten acre yard on Greenwood Highway in Saluda. That customer list shapes the stock. You get 20ft through 45ft, reefers, open tops and flat racks, and they are one of the few yards in South Carolina that also keeps 48ft and 53ft domestic boxes. Condition is graded A through D rather than the usual trade words, so ask what each letter means before you order. Saluda sits in the middle of the state, and a second office in Charleston splits the coverage from the upstate down to the coast.

Blairworx Solutions hauls its own boxes. The company runs its own trucks and DOT-certified drivers out of the St George yard, and does its own fleet maintenance, so the delivery date is theirs to keep rather than a third party's. Nearby jobs go out next day and most of the region lands in one to three days. You can also drive to the yard and walk the stock, because they buy and hand-inspect every unit themselves. They split it into new one-trip and used wind and water tight, and the fabrication side handles roll-up doors, man doors, windows, insulation and electrical. Note they only started trading in 2022, so the track record is short.

AWOL Containers puts its Charleston prices right on the site. A used 20ft, a new 20ft, a used 40ft, a used 40ft high cube and a new 40ft high cube all carry a figure, so you can work out a budget before anyone picks up the phone. The company started in 2000 and cut its teeth supplying containers to federal and state agencies, including a FEMA order for watertight storage after Katrina. That port-side sourcing shows in the range, which runs to reefers, flat racks and open tops alongside the standard boxes. Their own tilt-beds cover a 175 mile radius from Charleston, which reaches most of the state.

Bonafide Storage Containers backs both of its grades with a one year warranty. That covers the one-trip boxes, which have made a single crossing and carry only light dings, and the used ones, which show rust and dents but are sold as wind and watertight. A warranty on a used box is unusual and it tells you something about how they pick stock. Payment is flexible too, with cash sales, rent to own at a set monthly figure, and 90 days same as cash. The Gaffney lot runs one truck, so book ahead. Local drops take about a week and anything further out runs two weeks, or five to seven days if you pay for a rush.

Upstate Containers turns boxes into things. The Piedmont shop does custom paint, roll-up door installs and full conversions, and one of its jobs is a wood fired pizza container running at Swamp Rabbit Cafe in Greenville. If you have an idea that needs cutting and welding rather than a plain box on a pad, this is a shop worth calling. Stock comes in through Charleston, Savannah, Atlanta and Norfolk, and they carry 20ft, 40ft and 40ft high cube. Two things to know. They have been at it since 2014, and they describe units only as new or used, so ask directly about rust, floors and door seals before you commit.

Total Storage Services works job sites and small businesses around Spartanburg, and the customer names on its site tell you what kind of work it does. A brewery yard, a barbecue restaurant and a composting operation have all bought or hired from the Roebuck lot. They are one of the few yards in South Carolina stocking a 20ft high cube, which gives you a foot of extra headroom in a short box, and they build container offices to whatever spec you hand them. Containers sit alongside portable toilets and dumpsters here, so this is a site services company rather than a pure container dealer. No grades are published, so inspect before you pay.
