Wind & Water Tight (WWT) — What to Expect

Wind & Water Tight (WWT)

Wind & Water Tight containers keep out the elements but show visible signs of extended use. Expect patched areas, heavier surface rust, and cosmetic dents. Structurally reliable, they are a smart choice when the exterior will be clad or painted as part of the build.

What to expect:

  • Sealed against wind and rain
  • Heavier cosmetic wear — rust patches, dents
  • May have minor floor repairs
  • Doors functional but may need adjustment
  • Significant cost savings over newer grades
