AW Graham Lumber is the home of dirt cheap prices and
Kentucky's top source for high-quality
shipping/cargo containers. We have a large
selection of cargo containers available for your next project, including hi-cube containers (high cubes), wind and water tights, and 1-trippers.
Shipping containers are an excellent investment for secure storage or modular construction. Before you
create an account or
sign up at our
local lumber store, consider these technical factors found in our
product catalog to ensure you choose the right unit:
- Standard vs. High Cube: A standard container has an exterior height of 8-ft-6-in. If you plan to install a finished ceiling, flooring, or large machinery, a high cube (hi-cube) unit provides an extra 12-in of vertical space with a total exterior height of 9-ft-6-in.
- Container Condition and Grades: We offer "one-trip" units, which are manufactured overseas, loaded with cargo once, and then sold - providing the highest aesthetic quality. Our "wind and water tight" (WWT) units are used but inspected to ensure they are dry and secure, making them a cost-effective choice for a lumberyard or job site.
- Popular Sizes: We stock the industry-standard 20-ft containers (approximately 160 square feet) for compact storage and 40-ft containers (approximately 320 square feet) for large-scale cargo or residential construction.
- Delivery Preparation: Ensure your site has a level surface, such as a concrete pad or a compacted gravel base. A 40-ft container typically requires at least 100-ft of straight-line clearance for a tilt-bed truck to drop the unit safely.
Containers are built from CORTEN steel, making them incredibly resistant to corrosion and environmentally friendly compared to traditional materials. At
AW Graham Lumber, your
local building supplies one-stop shop, you can
browse all building products and find essential
container accessories to modify your unit. Whether you need heavy-duty shelving, security lock boxes, or specialty vents, we have the
cargo containers and parts to finish the job.
