Note on availability: As these are used containers, the stock of specific types, such as WC, shower or combined variants, varies daily. Contact us for current stock levels.
Prices of Used Sanitary Containers
The price of a used sanitary container depends on the size, equipment and condition of the respective module. A simple WC container is priced lower than a complete installation with showers, washbasins and a water heater. As our range changes continuously, prices cannot be guaranteed, and the specific individual offer is always binding. The current price range for used sanitary containers is between €2,900 and €5,000. For guidance, here are three examples from our current stock:
| Example | Short Description | Net Price |
| 20-foot WC container | Separate WC areas for women and men, electrical installation (400/230 V, CEE 32 A), water connection on the end wall (not suitable for drinking water). | €2,900 |
| 20-foot sanitary container with washbasin | Equipped with washbasin, turn/tilt window with roller shutter and electrical installation (400/230 V, CEE 32 A), water connection on the end wall (not suitable for drinking water). | €3,800 |

FAQ
What condition are the used sanitary containers in?
Our containers were in use in our rental fleet and show corresponding signs of use, but they are technically functional. Before delivery, we inspect all sanitary and electrical systems. You will find the exact condition of the respective module, such as the floor, fixtures or visible signs of use, in the product description in the shop.
Which water connections do the containers have, and is drinking water possible?
Our sanitary containers generally have a water connection on the end wall and are not designed as a drinking water system. The specific connection specifications differ by module and are stated in the respective product data sheet.
WC or Shower - Which Variant Is Right for You?
For basic toilet provision, a WC container is sufficient; for washing facilities, a shower container is the right choice. Some larger modules, such as the 3 m wide 20-foot version, combine several WCs and showers in one unit. You can find out which equipment is currently available on the respective subpages, or our advisors can clarify your requirements with you.
Are the containers heated?
This depends on the module. Some containers are equipped with a heater or water heater, others are not. Please refer to the respective product description to find out whether and what heating technology is available, or ask our advisors.
Can I view the container before purchase?
An on-site viewing is not possible for logistical reasons. In the shop, we provide informative photos and detailed product information for each container. We are happy to answer any further questions about condition or equipment via our inquiry form.
How quickly can the container be delivered?
As we deliver from stock, we can generally deliver at short notice. We will agree the specific delivery date with you in the offer.
What does a used sanitary container cost?
The current price range is between €2,900 and €5,000 net, depending on size and equipment. A simple WC container is at the lower end, while a complete installation with showers and a water heater is at the upper end. The specific individual offer is always binding.
