Choosing Between New & Used High Cubes
New — One Trip
Factory-fresh: original paint, clean marine plywood floor, zero scuffs, full CSC certification. Ideal if appearance matters — retail, events, residential — or if the unit will face heavy use.
Used — CW / WWT
Structurally identical boxes with minor cosmetic wear, repainted and resealed at our yard. Saves $700–$3,500 per unit — the smart pick for storage, agriculture and cost-sensitive projects.
