New, used & refurbished containers for sale in Riverside
Riverside sits at the heart of the Inland Empire’s warehouse corridor — one of the largest industrial markets in North America — and our containers work alongside it. Logistics operators near the 60, 91 and 215 interchanges buy 40ft high cubes for overflow inventory, while contractors across Riverside County use 20ft units as secure site boxes.
Since 1 January 2026, AB 98 has applied state design standards to new and expanded logistics uses, and the Warehouse Concentration Region it defines names Riverside, Moreno Valley, Jurupa Valley and Perris directly. Expansions of 20% or more of existing floor area trigger it. With the construction pipeline at a decade low, more operators are adding capacity on ground they already control rather than building — which is a large part of why our phone rings out here.
We supply new one-trip, used, and refurbished containers in every standard size, all wind and water tight, with multi-unit pricing for operators running several sites. Modifications are done in our own shop — doors, vents, insulation, lighting, power, and shelving. Same-day quotes, and delivery across Riverside County typically within 3–5 business days.
Watertight roof, hole-free floors, sealing doors — checked at the depot.
Our drivers, our tilt-bed trucks, Riverside in 3–5 business days.

On the way back from picking up parts we finally stopped by since we drive past it a lot. Solid spot — the guy working was super helpful and got us in and out quick with the container we needed. Prices seemed fair compared to what everyone else charges online.
A Google UserWorked over a weekend to get us a modified shipping container ahead of schedule at a reasonable price. This company is the best!
Byron YoungI would recommend Shipping Container Depot and Phil to any of my business colleagues. They go out of their way to help you — very few companies like them left. Thank you for your expertise.
Andrew SimapayBought a container and could not be happier. The price was very reasonable, cheaper than the other quotes, and it was delivered on time — placed in a very tight spot for no extra money and with a smile. Great job!

Pro tip: the 40ft high cube is the go-to for container homes and offices — that extra foot of interior height makes all the difference once you insulate and finish the ceiling.

Container delivery in Riverside
Here’s our wedge: we run our own truck fleet. Competitors sell you a container and hand you off to a third-party trucker they’ve never worked with. We don’t. Our drivers, our tilt-bed trucks, straight from our LA depot to your site anywhere in Riverside County — typically 3–5 business days.
Tell us the size, condition, and delivery ZIP. We price it in one call — no broker in the middle.
One of our own drivers books a window that works for you and confirms site access ahead of time.
The tilt-bed slides the container gently into place. No forklift required — just level ground and clearance.
We deliver across Riverside and the Inland Empire
A 40ft container on a tilt-bed truck needs about 100 feet of straight clearance to unload. No forklift needed — the truck sets it down for you. Not sure your site fits? We’ll walk it with you over the phone.
