There’s a lot of noise in the container sales space, but Yellow Dog keeps it simple. When you buy from us, you’re buying from a real team with real inventory, not a website broker or reseller.

You’re welcome to visit our Calgary or Edmonton depots to inspect your container before purchase, ask questions, and talk with the same people who will handle your delivery. Can’t make it in person? Ask about our virtual viewing service — we’ll show you similar inventory so you can buy with confidence.

With decades of experience and a long-standing, knowledgeable team, we don’t just sell containers — we help you make the right call, and we back it up with local service you can count on.

What container sizes do you sell?

We stock 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft containers, plus specialty models like double-doors and open sides.

What condition are used containers in?

Used containers are wind and water-tight, structurally sound, and ready for long-term storage or modification.

Are containers inspected before sale?

Yes. All used containers are wind and water-tight. For overseas shipping, we can coordinate the survey and certification.

How quickly can a container be delivered?

Most units can be delivered within 1-2 days of purchase.

Do you offer unloading services?

Yes — we can arrange offloading if needed, or you can handle it with your own equipment.

I have been doing Business with Yellow Dog for 3 years. I have had a great experience with management all the way through to Lift operators, Gate service, and Carlos my salesman. I find Yellow Dog to be honest, Reliable, and a friendly supplier of shipping containers in Alberta.

Carlos goes to great lengths to accommodate and fill my needs both in Edmonton and Calgary. Orders are processed by the rest of the team at Yellow Dog and assist me with quality, friendly service and quickly expedite the loading service. Yellow Dog's prices are competitive, and being able to view containers prior to purchasing helps make sure we are getting exactly what we need.
