Shipping containers - information | Shipping container sizes

By: storage containers

Shipping containers are commonly used for transporting goods either interstate or overseas, though they are also used for other purposes like self storage and new or used shipping container conversions (such as site offices and portable workshops). Shipping container companies sell new or used shipping containers at different prices, depending on the grade of the shipping container (Premium grade, A grade and Standard grade containers etc) and also depending on the size. There are 3 main shipping container sizes that are readily available at most shipping container depots. The most common shipping container size is the 20ft shipping container (or 6m shipping container), though they are also available in 10ft shipping container (3m shipping container) and 40ft shipping container (12m shipping container) sizes. The 10ft and 20ft shipping containers are normally delivered via a tilt tray transporter, though the 40ft shipping containers are normally delivered via a side loader transporter due to size. When you have ordered your new or used shipping container from a shipping container company they will ask you what access you have to your site as, depending on the size of your shipping container, it can be a issue if there is little access - a crane may also be needed for delivery. If you can't afford to purchase a new or used shipping container, many shipping container companies have shipping container hire options available for long or short term hire.
