REMAIN GmbH Container Depot and Repair is located in the seaports of Bremen, Bremerhaven and Hamburg, providing services for all the major shipping lines and container-leasing companies.  Its core business is that of handling, repairing and servicing “boxes” and of providing intermediate storage for empty containers.  A range of specialists are there to ensure that damaged or dirty containers are quickly ready for service again.  Specialist staff, working in their own service and repair workshops, carry out cleaning and repair work on dry, refrigerated and tank containers. REMAIN services and repairs a total of 38,000 containers a year. 

Along with servicing and repair, REMAIN has facilities at all its sites for the intermediate storage of empty containers.  This involves precise coordination of operations and speedy delivery of containers, on the “first-in-first-out” principle.  For this purpose REMAIN uses an efficient IT-controlled storage-position system.

In Hamburg REMAIN operates an empty-container depot at Dradenauer Deichweg, with 200,000 m² of operating space.  At its Bremen site REMAIN has over 30,000 m² in Neustädter Hafen, and 15,000 m² at the EUROGATE Container Terminal in Bremerhaven.

Alongside its core business, REMAIN buys and sells containers, supplying new and used sea containers, and sells and leases one-storey or multi-storey storage and office containers.  Further services include lettering the outer walls of containers for advertising and providing goods on consignment for sales campaigns.  REMAIN also supplies special containers to customer specifications.
