Container leasing companies will take information from you such as the type of cargo you are shipping, and then help you to choose the proper container for your needs. The container you lease will be chosen based on your specific requirements, and can even have insurance applied. The availability of the equipment you need will make a difference on the pricing you are offered, but for the most part if you get in touch with the container leasing company early enough you should have no problem getting a better deal.
