Buy from a company you can trust!
Yes, you can possibly buy a cruddy old second-hand shipping container cheaply off EBay or Gumtree, but can you send it back if you don’t like it? What if it has a musty or chemical smell, is unsanitary, or leaks badly, or simply isn’t delivered as advertised? Buyer beware indeed. Good luck getting something that weighs a few tonne back to the person who sold it to you! The market is rife with scammers targeting people after shipping containers for sale in Melbourne, so please purchase with a company you can trust.

At Port Shipping Containers Melbourne that will never be an issue. Partly because our containers have to pass our Container Grade checks. But mainly because all our containers come with a guarantee that you will receive what is advertised in our customer transparancy guide for your selected container grade. So you can rest assured that whatever type of container you’ve ordered, it’s the one that gets delivered.

Melbourne – City By the Bay
If you live in Melbourne, you’ll know how lucky you are. Because in Melbourne, ‘four seasons in one day’ are just the beginning! But extremes in temperature brings its own problems. Especially if you’re trying to store or transport something of value!
