Product overview
The 20ft shipping container is the most popular size in trade and construction. It holds a lot for its external size and can be loaded and moved with standard transport equipment.
Use it as a storage container, a materials store on site or the shell for an office, retail or special-purpose conversion. It is a solid, long-lasting starting point for any of these.
Key features
- Large storage capacity in a compact footprint
- Steel construction built to ISO standards
- Wind and watertight
- Double doors with lockable locking bars
- Forklift pockets for easy handling
- Six RAL colours
Construction
The load-bearing frame is weather-resistant steel designed for years of outdoor use. Reinforced roof and floor sections keep the container rigid, including when several containers are stacked. The double doors at one end open to the full width of the container and lock securely.
Popular uses
- Storage and materials container on worksites
- Overflow storage for trade and retail businesses
- Shell for an office, shop or amenities conversion
- Seasonal storage and pop-up shops
- Transporting large volumes of goods

Custom solutionsDelivery
Delivery is coordinated Australia-wide from the Port Macquarie. Processing takes 1–3 business days; delivery is typically 4–7 business days after processing. The standard charge is $745 per unit (incl. GST) within our standard service area and is shown at checkout once you enter your postcode. Remote, restricted-access, multi-unit and oversize deliveries are confirmed by quotation.
Tilt tray: A straight run behind the placement point (typically about 2.5× the container length plus the truck), firm level ground and clear overhead height. The most common option for 6ft–20ft units: the tray tilts and the container slides off onto the ground.
Side loader: Clear space along one side of the truck for the stabiliser legs and the two lifting cranes, and room to park parallel to the drop. Lifts the container off the chassis and sets it down beside the vehicle; the usual choice for 20ft and 40ft units.
Hiab / crane truck: Firm ground for the outriggers and a placement point within the crane's reach. Suits sites where the unit has to go over a fence or into a corner a tilt tray cannot reach; reach depends on the crane model and the unit weight.
Illustrative only. Figures are typical; we confirm the vehicle and access with you before dispatch.
Site access
Before delivery, check for a firm, level placement area, clear truck access and turning room, gate width, overhead power lines and trees, and soft ground after rain. A tilt tray typically needs a straight run behind the placement point; side loaders need clear space along one side. Our team confirms the right vehicle with you before dispatch.
Warranty
New units carry an 18 months voluntary warranty from delivery against manufacturing and structural defects. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law are not limited by this warranty. Warranty policy · Returns
