WWT ("Wind & Water Tight")
Wind and water tight graded used shipping containers are no longer able to pass a CSC survey and cannot be exported. All WWT condition containers can be repaired to CWO condition, and often the repair is as simple as patching a dent deemed too large, or a bent cross-member under the floor.
Sometimes WWT condition containers were CWO containers until their CSC survey expired, and the shipping line using the unit decided not to keep it in circulation (often because of age). However the unit may still be in the “cargo worthy” condition and simply need a new CSC survey.
WWT containers make great storage units and are sometimes still used for domestic shipping. While they are typically among the oldest units we sell, each container is inspected to ensure it is structurally sound. They also clean up nicely—check out the video above to see what a fresh coat of paint can do.
