Seriös, transparent, zuverlässig – dafür stehen wir seit Jahrzehnten. Sie erhalten bei uns klare, nachvollziehbare Angebote – ohne versteckte Kosten. Hier finden Sie die wichtigsten Antworten. Details lassen sich aufklappen.
Tip for comparing prices: always check the total costs (container, delivery, crane, VAT) and compare the location of the goods (from a UK terminal or abroad). If prices are significantly lower, it is worth taking a closer look at the details.

Briefly: Der Gesamtpreis hängt vom Container-Typ, Standort, Lieferweg und – falls gewünscht – vom Kran-Ablad ab.
Darum nennen wir bei vielen Modellen zuerst den Containerpreis und berechnen Lieferung sowie optionalen Kran-Ablad passend zum Standort. So erhalten Sie eine realistische und nachvollziehbare Gesamtofferte.
Briefly: Standard models have fixed prices. Recommended prices serve as a guide. We calculate special containers individually – for market-driven conditions.
Containerpreise unterscheiden sich nach Typ, Zustand, Farbe, Standort und Nachfrage. Sie ändern sich regelmässig – manchmal monatlich, in speziellen Marktphasen auch wöchentlich. Lieferung & Kran-Ablad werden passend zum Standort transparent berechnet.
Container prices depend on many factors: availability, supplier, location, colour, quality and exchange rates. Recommended prices are therefore an honest guide; fixed prices are mainly for popular models. We calculate on a daily basis – transparently and fairly, instead of confusing customers with bait pricing.
Briefly: No own warehouse with expensive old stock. We procure flexibly via our Europe-wide and Switzerland-wide network – this keeps prices current and fair.
With no fixed storage costs and no pressure to reduce stock, we can make you the right offer depending on location, supplier and quality (new/used) – including repainting, logos or lettering on request.
The market is driven by demand, overcapacity or bottlenecks. Exchange rates also play a role. We use our network to secure market-driven conditions at all times – transparent and fair.
Briefly: Beispiele wie «neue 20’ Container für CHF 1’200.– inkl. Gratislieferung» sind in der Schweiz kaum realistisch – allein Transport und Kran-Ablad liegen typischerweise ab ca. CHF 300.– bis ca. CHF 1’200.–, in Einzelfällen höher (abhängig von Lieferort und Containergrösse).
Einige Online-Preise zeigen nicht alle Kosten auf den ersten Blick. Unsere Preise gelten – sofern nichts anderes erwähnt – ab CH-Terminal (verzollt) und sind korrekt eingeführt; die MwSt. wird separat ausgewiesen.
In Produkt-Feeds oder Preisvergleichs-Karussells kann bei Containern technisch bedingt «Lieferung kostenlos» angezeigt werden. Diese Darstellung ist systemseitig vorgegeben und bedeutet nicht zwingend, dass der Transport enthalten ist. Häufig handelt es sich um Abholpreise ab Terminal (z. B. CH- oder EU-Terminal). Abgabeort und effektive Lieferkosten sind jeweils im Detail zu prüfen. Unsere Preise gelten – sofern nichts anderes erwähnt – ab CH-Terminal (verzollt). Lieferkosten werden transparent und individuell nach Distanz, Menge und Containergrösse offeriert.
Gerne erstellen wir Ihnen einen verbindlichen Fixpreis für Ihre PLZ oder Ortschaft (inkl. optionalem Kran-Ablad).
We clearly state the delivery location, additional costs and options in our quotations – including separate details of delivery costs based on postcode/distance and optional crane unloading. This means there are no surprises.
Briefly: These are determined by distance, quantity/combination, container type/size, unloading distance/height and local conditions. Delivery with Swiss freight carriers; options clearly stated. We can unload 40' containers with a suitable crane – we will organise this for you.
We provide placement tips and clarify the appropriate crane solution in advance – especially for 40' containers.
We deliver most standard containers within approximately 2–3 weeks. Express delivery is also available for certain models – usually within 2–5 working days or 7–10 days (at an additional cost).
Briefly: Ja. Wenn Sie uns die PLZ oder Ortschaft sowie den gewünschten Container mitteilen, kalkulieren wir die Lieferung und auf Wunsch auch den Kran-Ablad passend mit.
Briefly: ‘NEW/as new’ refers to factory-new shipping containers that have only been loaded once and shipped from Asia to Europe (1 trip). Technically new, with minimal signs of handling possible.
In maritime transport, many vessels are decommissioned after approximately 10–15 years for economic reasons; in stationary use, they can be used for significantly longer, depending on their condition and maintenance.
Second-hand/used: The remaining service life depends heavily on the initial condition and use. Well-maintained used containers can often still be put to good use for many years in a stationary location.
Practical tip: A ventilated, slightly raised structure (point/strip foundations) protects the floor frame; treat rust spots early on; keep an eye on the roof seal.
Briefly: Load-bearing capacity via corner castings. Designed for multiple stacking with valid CSC. Stationary: 2 high standard; 3 high depending on substrate/wind/securing – check statically.
Guideline values for stationary applications. Depends on individual circumstances (substrate, wind, payload, condition).
Briefly: Sea containers: standardised, very robust and usually with CSC certification – for international transport and demanding applications. Storage containers: primarily for stationary storage – no CSC certification required.
CSC is required for export/rail/sea transport (alternatively ACEP). Not required for storage purposes only.
Conclusion: Sea containers are usually the most economical choice for robust, durable and reusable units.
Briefly: On request: paint finish (RAL), logos/lettering, additional ventilation, doors/windows and minor modifications via partner companies.
Costs depend on type/effort. We advise on what makes sense technically and fits visually.
