Used containers at Vienna: a Danube terminal with its own repair shop

Repair as part of the terminal

A terminal that repairs boxes on site sees condition honestly. For an owner it means a lot can be described by what is wrong with it, not only by its age. We do not use or run the terminal's workshop; we ask for the condition and the release terms and let the buyer judge.

Trains to the seaports

The operator describes block train links to Hamburg and Rotterdam, and its latest figures list four trainsets of 700 metres. For equipment that means a unit in Vienna has usually arrived by rail, and can often leave the same way. Whether it does is agreed for each deal.

A terminal planning to grow

Vienna's city press service says the terminal at Freudenau is to be expanded by 2034, aiming at about one million TEU. That is a plan, not stock. Until it is built, a request here is compared against the terminal as it stands.

Owners and buyers in eastern Austria

Owners name the type, the quantity and when the units can be released. Buyers around Vienna, Lower Austria and the border regions register what they need and how far they can collect. A lot is shared with a buyer only when it is a concrete match and its owner has agreed.

• According to Hafen Wien (2025 figures), the container terminal handled approximately 480,000 TEU in 2025 and has 10,000 TEU of stacking spaces.
• According to Hafen Wien (2025 figures), the port has a total area of 300 ha and a quay length of 5,000 m, and lists four trainsets of 700 m each.
• According to Hafen Wien, WienCont operates its container terminal across 200,000 square metres (page undated).
• According to Hafen Wien, around 130 block train connections per week link the terminal to major European seaports including Hamburg and Rotterdam (page undated).
• According to Hafen Wien, approximately 15,000 20- and 40-foot containers are repaired at the terminal each year (page undated).
• According to the City of Vienna press service (30 June 2025), WienCont handled almost 470,000 TEU in 2024 and plans to expand the Freudenau terminal by 2034, with the aim of doubling container units handled to about 1,000,000 TEU.
