Hi all, I’m currently sourcing shipping containers for a project based in the Philippines. Prices seem to vary a lot depending on the location and condition. Anyone have up-to-date info or experience on what to expect cost-wise?
I bought a used 20ft container in Manila earlier this year, and pricing really fluctuated depending on how close you were to port areas. New containers were significantly higher, especially with delivery included.
I’ve noticed prices also shift based on the season and trade activity. During peak demand, even older units can get pricey. It helps to compare across different suppliers and watch out for hidden fees like crane charges.
Hi. I recently researched this for a logistics setup in Cebu. What I found helpful was Pelican Containers’ overview — they break down real pricing trends, explain what affects the rates, and offer certified, leak-proof units with secure delivery options. Their transparent pricing and 24/7 support also stood out. For current info, I’d recommend checking more details about shipping container prices in the Philippines https://pelicancontainers.com/container-types/looking-for-shipping-container-prices-in-the-philippines-get-top-deals-2024 in their blog — it helped me budget more accurately and avoid surprise costs.
