Are your shipping containers watertight?

Most of the time, the answer is yes. New shipping containers are manufactured with durable, rubber seals around their doors to prevent any water or moisture from entering without authorization. Most containers don’t have openings on both sides, so water can be kept out by creating a barricade around the door.

What is the difference between watertight (WWT) vs. waterproof

Regarding the confusion of the Terms “Water tight” and “Waterproof” we need to understand the difference of the two terms because they are actually quite different…

The term “watertight” (Also known as WWT or water tight) has a precise meaning–i.e., that no water can enter the container whatsoever. If you ever see “watertight” or “WWT” used to describe shipping containers, you can go ahead and assume that the inside of that container will be protected during delivery to your office in your city (although it’s still important to buy from a trusted business).

Waterproof is a different term altogether depending on which business online is using the term. Your unit may be getting delivered with standard service and there may not be a guarantee of a water tight delivery process.
