The cost of a "sea can" (shipping container) varies depending on size, condition, and type. For example, a new 20-foot shipping container typically costs between $2,500 and $5,000, while used ones range from about $1,500 to $3,000. New 40-foot containers range from $3,500 to $7,000 depending on whether they are standard or high cube models. Used 40-foot containers usually cost between $2,000 and $5,000. Prices also depend on factors like location and delivery costs. In Europe, a new 20-foot sea container can cost around 4,200 to 5,000 euros including taxes and delivery fees. This range covers dry containers and standard ISO-certified units used for shipping or storage.
