Container Project Logistics

1. 1. Lease: Temporary use of containers for the duration of the project.
   2. Sale: You purchase containers outright.
   3. Guaranteed buy-back: Spinnaker makes a commitment to buy back the containers at the end of the project. This helps reduce demurrage and overall handling costs.

If a project requires temporary storage (e.g., during plant refurbishment or shutdowns), Spinnaker can deliver containers to your site to safely house materials, inventory, or tools. Once you’re done, they’ll be picked up. This service often costs less than building temporary structures or using off-site warehousing.

Project Shipment involves transporting multiple modules, tools, machinery, or components that may require specialized handling and packaging. Containers are used as the packaging, and the operation may include staging, loading over time, on-site storage during construction or reassembly, and tailored logistics support. The goal is to reduce costs like demurrage and optimize the logistics flow.

Spinnaker can provide multiple container sizes (e.g., 20’, 40’, 40’ High Cube) depending on project needs. Volume availability depends on region and project scope. The variety enables matching containers to what the cargo or site demands.

Yes. Quality inspection is part of our service. Our team ensures that containers are in good condition and suitable for safe transport and/or storage prior to delivery.

Spinnaker helps minimize demurrage by enabling buy-back options and on-site storage of containers during the project, which avoids unnecessary port or terminal fees. Our container packaging approach and scheduling aim to align with project timing so containers are not sitting idle accruing costs.
