20ft Containers for Sale (90)

20ft containers are the most versatile container size in the Australian market. Common applications include general site storage on construction, civil and mining projects, freight and logistics, and custom fit-outs such as workshops, site offices, lunchrooms and ablution blocks, which are typically modified from standard shipping containers. Specialised container types such as dangerous goods containers and refrigerated containers are also commonly available in 20ft sizes, although these are purpose-built and manufactured differently from standard containers. They suit most jobs where you need a large secure space while still being able to transport the container on a standard tilt tray. 

New (or one-trip) 20ft containers have made a single shipping journey from the factory and are in near-new condition with clean paintwork and minimal wear. Used 20ft containers have been in service for longer and typically show surface rust, dents and weathering, though they remain structurally sound and weatherproof. Used containers are more affordable and well-suited to site storage, while new containers are often preferred for visible installations or specific conversions.

20ft containers are typically transported on a tilt tray truck, which can deliver and lift the container directly onto site without a crane. Side loaders are also commonly used, allowing the container to be placed in tight or single-access sites. Delivery method depends on site access, the placement position and ground conditions.
