What is the difference between New 'One-Trip' and Used containers?

A New 'One-Trip' container is manufactured overseas and has made a single cargo trip to the UK. It is in pristine condition with clean timber flooring and a factory lockbox. A Used container has served in cargo for 10-14 years, with minor surface wear but guaranteed 100% wind and watertight.
