Every shipping container carries an ISO 6346 number: four letters then seven digits (six serial + one check digit). The first three letters are the owner code and the fourth is always U for a freight container — so the four-letter prefix identifies who owns the box. Owner ≠ always the line carrying it: leasing companies own millions of boxes that sail under many carriers, which is why a leasing prefix is tracked by bill of lading, not by the prefix.
Not sure the number you have is valid? The last digit is a checksum — run it through the free ISO 6346 check-digit calculator before blaming the carrier's tracking.
OVPU containers are owned by OVP Shipping (SCAC OVPU).
