Shipping Containers for Sale – 20ft & 40ft in Belgrade (Serbia)

We sell shipping containers for use across Serbia (Belgrade, Novi Sad, Smederevo, Niš) and for international import/export operations through the country's key logistics nodes.

Belgrade is a strategic logistics and industrial center of the Balkan Peninsula. Purchasing a container outright in this region allows businesses to create mobile, secure storage space, avoid steep terminal storage fees, and ensure a steady supply of quality equipment for export shipments to the EU, Russia, or EAEU countries.

Important: We do not deal in As-Is condition under any circumstances. Our fleet consists exclusively of inspected, watertight, and structurally sound containers. You will not receive equipment with warped doors, through-wall corrosion, or damaged flooring — issues that, in a continental climate, create far more problems than they solve.

The following units are always in stock at our yards and partner terminals in Belgrade:

• 20DC — standard 20-foot containers (ideal for auto parts, industrial equipment, compact storage)

• 40DC — standard 40-foot containers

• 20HC / 40HC — High Cube containers with extra capacity (optimal for textiles, electronics, and bulky cargo)

• Reefer containers — for agricultural exports and pharmaceuticals (available on request)

Transactions are completed within one business day. Containers are sold in the following conditions: NEW, IICL, CW.

How to Buy a Container in Belgrade

1. Selection. Describe your needs to our manager (warehousing, export, buffer storage). We'll recommend the right type and condition.

2. Contract. We sign a purchase agreement locking in the price, the container's BIC number, and the handover terms.

3. Payment. We accept bank transfers (in USD via international wire or in RSD for Serbian residents, inclusive of local VAT/PDV).

4. Pickup. You collect the container from the agreed terminal in Belgrade (FCA), or we coordinate the handover to your logistics partner.

Local Expertise: Belgrade Terminals and Container Supply Routes

Our deep understanding of regional infrastructure allows us to guarantee transaction transparency and equipment availability.

1. Container Terminals in Belgrade

We work directly with operators at the capital's key logistics hubs:

• Luka Beograd (Port of Belgrade): The main river and multimodal port on the Danube. It features well-developed infrastructure for container handling and temporary storage, with direct access to the rail network.

• Private Inland Container Depots (ICDs) in Surčin and Zemun: Located in close proximity to Nikola Tesla Airport and major highways. These terminals specialize in rapid container turnover and customs clearance, offering convenient self-pickup conditions for customers.

2. Equipment Supply Routes into Serbia

Since Serbia is landlocked, all shipping containers enter the country via neighboring ports along well-established multimodal corridors:

• The "Blue Corridor" (Piraeus – Belgrade): The primary and fastest-growing route. Containers from Asia (China) arrive at the Greek port of Piraeus (where COSCO holds a strategic stake) and are then delivered to Belgrade by direct rail service. This bypasses congestion at Northern European ports.

• Port of Rijeka (Croatia) and Port of Bar (Montenegro): Traditional routes for cargo originating in Western Europe or the Mediterranean, with onward rail or road delivery to Belgrade terminals.

• Port of Koper (Slovenia): Used for equipment already circulating within the European Union, with subsequent transport into Serbia.

Who Benefits from Buying a Container in Belgrade: Industry Use Cases

Automotive and Machinery Manufacturing

Serbia has a thriving auto components sector (including suppliers to plants in Kragujevac and the Belgrade region, such as Fiat/Stellantis). For storing precision parts, molds, and electronics, we provide IICL and NEW condition containers, guaranteeing a dust-free, moisture-free, and odor-free environment.

Agricultural Exporters and the Food Industry

Serbia is a major exporter of raspberries, plums, frozen fruits, and meat products. Storing packaging materials or shipping directly abroad requires food-grade standard containers. We supply only clean units (IICL/NEW) with no traces of previous chemical cargo — a mandatory requirement for EU phytosanitary inspections.

Construction and Infrastructure Companies

Belgrade and Serbia as a whole are undergoing rapid infrastructure development. A container is a vandal-proof, fire-safe solution for storing expensive tools, generators, and cables on-site — without the need for capital construction permits.

Logistics Operators and 3PL Providers

Companies operating temporary storage warehouses. Owning your own container fleet allows you to create buffer zones for imported goods, avoiding high in-terminal storage tariffs and dependence on rail operator quotas.

Estimated Container Prices in Belgrade

Prices are per unit, ex-works (FCA) from a terminal in Belgrade or its suburbs. The Serbian market is characterized by steady demand, and prices reflect the overland leg from seaports.

Terms:

• A bulk discount applies to orders of 3 or more units.

• Self-pickup is available from Luka Beograd or partner ICDs in the Surčin/Zemun area.
