Lummid

Lummid is a wholesale supplier of new and used shipping containers. We sell to the trade and to buyers who order in volume: container resellers and dealers, depots, logistics companies, contractors, businesses and government buyers. We carry our own stock at container depots and supply from hundreds of depots and terminals across the United States and Canada, so most orders ship from a depot close to your market or site.

How wholesale ordering works

  1. Send your list. Sizes, grades and quantities, plus the delivery ZIP codes or the depot cities you want to pick up from.
  2. Get a quote from the nearest depots. We quote from the depots closest to each market or site, with delivery or pickup options.
  3. Containers are released or delivered on the agreed schedule. Your trucker picks up with a release, or we arrange delivery.

Why buy from a wholesaler

  • Fewer hands between you and the container. You buy from the company that owns the stock, so there is one less margin in your cost.
  • Depots across the U.S. and Canada. Source close to each market or job site instead of trucking containers across the country.
  • Experience. Lummid has supplied containers and intermodal equipment since 2000 and is led by Michael Stangel, who has been a member of the National Portable Storage Association (NPSA) since it was founded.
