Email these leasing companies the entire container prefix number AND city location of box. They will email you back authorization and where to terminate their box.

You are strongly cautioned not to purchase any of these units except directly from Textainer or from parties that you know purchased the units from Textainer.  Additionally, if you are aware of any party trying to sell any such container or otherwise come across our containers, we would greatly appreciate it if you would inform your usual Textainer representative of these situations.  
We understand that this is a tremendously difficult time for the container shipping and logistics industry and we thank you in advance for your commitment to honest business practices.  We together look forward to a stronger industry following this disruptive event.

Hanjin Shipping, the 7th largest shipping line filed for bankruptcy on September 1 and is expected to liquidate.  Given this very disruptive event, we expect that in the following weeks and months many parties may attempt to steal and re-sell containers previously operated by Hanjin.  The vast majority of Hanjin’s shipping containers are owned by leasing companies, including Textainer (note that this also includes Hanjin containers with Hanjin prefixes, most of which are actually owned by leasing companies).   You are strongly advised to be cautious in your container purchasing activities and not to deal with unknown or unreliable sources of containers in the near term.  If you purchase stolen equipment you may be held liable for dealing in stolen goods.  If you have any questions about purchasing containers with Textainer prefixes (AMFU, AMZU, CLHU, GAEU, GATU, PICU, TEXU, TEMU, TGBU, TGHU, TXGU, and XINU), we urge you to contact your usual Textainer representatives to verify that these containers are not currently owned by Textainer.
