20FT SHIPPING CONTAINERS

Melbourne Shipping Containers supplies and delivers 20ft shipping containers to a range of industries in Victoria.

We have a wide selection of both new, second hand and refurbished containers for sale.  Each one of our storage units has been inspected by a marine surveyor to ensure your container is weatherproof and ready for use.  

Available in both Standard (8’6”) and High Cubes (9’6”) sizes, 20 footers provide a multitude of uses, ideal for shipping, storage or modification. You’re welcome to visit our depot, inspect and select individual containers or we can arrange photographs to be sent to you.

20ft New

New Build or One Trip Containers have been used once for cargo shipping having travelled once into the country. They may have some slight scratches and scuff marks but typically have no damage.

All one trip units will come complete with a standard fitted lock box.

20ft Used

Used 20ft containers are generally released from shipping lines for resale after they have been written down on their books approximately ten to fifteen years. Having been around the world a few times they will have some surface rust, dints, scratches and patches.

All have been inspected by our marine surveyors and sold wind, watertight and vermin proof. We keep a range of budget to A grade containers in stock with the price varying pending age and condition.

20ft Refurbished – Interior and/or Exterior

An interior refurbishment involves the 20ft used containers being taken to our workshop and having its interior freshly painted and floor sanded.

Exterior painting can also be arranged at additional cost. They will get a light sand, prime and top coat to a color bond range. We can also arrange company logos or even put you in touch with a graffiti artist.

20ft High Cube (HC)

High cube shipping containers are one foot taller than the standard height and are ideal for when you need that extra headspace. Measuring 2.89m (9’6”) high, the additional height allows more space for packing and is the preferred choice for container conversions but still perfect for everyday storage use.

They are available used/secondhand, refurbished and new.

If transporting your shipping container via rail or sea, you will need an updated CSC Certificate. We have a number of qualified marine surveyors on site who can complete this for a a small fee.
