Shipping container for sale Sydney

Buy used shipping containers

Every 20’ and 40’ shipping container we offer undergoes a thorough inspection upon arrival at our third-party depot in Sydney. Each unit is carefully evaluated for structural soundness and overall condition to ensure durability and reliability before being graded for sale.

As our containers are stored at an external depot, in-person inspections prior to purchase are not available. However, our comprehensive Grading Criteria images provide an accurate representation of container quality, helping you make a confident and informed decision.

Buy new single use shipping containers

Once our new 20’ & 40’ shipping containers are manufactured, they are leased to global shipping companies that transport cargo from China to Sydney. After completing a single trip, these containers arrive at our Strathfield depot, ready for purchase.

Each new single-trip shipping container is equipped with a secure lock box and ten side wall vents to enhance airflow. This cost-effective method of bringing containers to Sydney ensures affordability, though minor scuffs and handling marks may be present due to transit. Despite these cosmetic imperfections, the containers remain structurally sound, weatherproof, and built for long-term durability.

Frequently asked questions

Can I pick up my shipping container directly from your Sydney depot?

Yes, customers can arrange to collect their shipping container from our Sydney depot, provided they have suitable transport. If you plan to pick up your container, please coordinate with our team in advance to ensure it is ready for collection. We will also provide guidelines on securing the container for safe transport.

How is a shipping container delivered to my location in Sydney?

We match the truck to your container and site. Tilt trays suit 10ft and 20ft containers on sites with clear, open access, crane trucks lift containers into tight spaces, and side loaders or super tilts handle 40ft containers. See our delivery options.

What do I need to prepare before my shipping container is delivered?

Plan where the container will sit and make sure the truck has clear access. Tilt trays and super tilts need open space and a level surface, and side loaders can only unload on the driver’s side. Containers cannot be placed on council footpaths or roads without a valid permit. See our delivery options.

Do used shipping containers for sale in Sydney come with a warranty?

Call our team on 07 3888 3751 and we’ll talk you through it, or see our Grading Criteria for what each grade means.

Can I purchase a shipping container and have it delivered to a regional area outside Sydney?

Yes, we provide shipping container delivery across Australia. Delivery costs depend on the type of truck, the size of the container and the distance to your location. See our delivery options.

What is the difference between a standard and high cube shipping container in Sydney?

High cube containers provide extra headroom. A standard container has an internal height of 2392 mm, while a high cube has 2698 mm. See our container specifications for full dimensions.
