SHIPPING CONTAINER BUYING GUIDE

Which Shipping Container Size Is Right For You?

Before you buy a shipping container, consider where it will be placed, how much storage capacity you need, whether a new or used container is more suitable, and what the container will be used for. Choosing the right combination of size, condition and delivery method can help avoid unnecessary costs and ensure the container suits your site and long-term requirements.

Site & Delivery Access

The right delivery method depends on access width, overhead clearance, ground conditions and final placement position.

Container Size

Choose between 10ft, 20ft and 40ft shipping containers based on your available space, required storage capacity and site access.

Intended Use

Storage, construction sites, workshops, commercial operations and conversion projects may require different container sizes & conditions.

New or Used

Choose a new container for premium condition and long-term use, or a used container for a more cost-effective storage and worksite solution.

Common Uses for Shipping Containers

Shipping containers provide secure and flexible solutions for residential, commercial, construction, industrial and agricultural applications. They are commonly used for equipment and inventory storage, construction site storage, workshops, machinery storage, freight operations and container conversion projects.

With 10ft, 20ft, 40ft and high cube options available, Container Options can help you select a container based on your required capacity, available site space and intended use.

SYDNEY SHIPPING CONTAINER SUPPLIER

Why choose Container Options

Container Options is a Sydney-based, family-owned shipping container supplier providing new, used and specialised shipping containers for sale across Sydney and NSW. With more than 70 years of combined industry experience, our team helps customers select the right container based on size, condition, intended use, site access and budget.

Delivery Options

Container Options delivers shipping containers across Sydney, regional NSW and interstate. Our team can recommend the right delivery method for your container size, site access and placement requirements, with tilt tray, HIAB and sideloader delivery options available.

A Tilt tray truck is the most cost effective delivery method, but you do need the space for the truck to drive out after it slides the container into place.

Using a HIAB truck – which is a truck with a crane mount on either the front or the rear of the tray, as the crane arm can lift and position the container into place very precisely.

A Sideloader is best suited where there is limited space in front or behind where the container is to be located. The container is offloaded onto the ground on the drivers’ side of the vehicle. When the container is unloaded it lands between the two outrigger feet of the side loader, parallel to and approximately half a metre from the side of the truck. Perfect for delivering or relocating heavy, loaded and heavy shipping containers.

Delivery can be organised within a few days, subject to transport availability. Each container is either shipped directly from the manufacturer to our Sydney depot or from our Sydney depot to you if used. Please note, some scuffing may occur during transport, which is typical due to the shipping process.

Frequently asked questions

Buying a shipping container in Sydney

Price depends on size, condition and whether the container is new or used. A used 20ft container is the most affordable entry point, while new and high cube units sit higher. Contact our team for current pricing on the size you need.

New containers have had one trip or none at all and are in near-perfect condition, suited to retail fitouts and conversions. Used containers show cosmetic wear such as surface rust and dents but remain wind and watertight, which makes them well suited to storage and worksites.
