We don’t need to tell Canberra folk about how shipping containers can be used for a whole range of different things, because Australia’s capital city is way ahead of the rest!

A shipping container in the back yard or on your property is also a great storage solution. Whether you just need somewhere to store extra things, or want to pack your house to rent out while you go travelling around Australia or overseas, a shipping container can be a really cost effective option. And if you’re moving, our ‘Load Your Own’ Service makes things really easy.

Shipping Containers For Canberra Residents

By combining a number of containers together, dividing areas, and installing features such as solar panels and sliding glass doors, this is an excellent way to take a unique approach to small space living.
Other ways you can use a shipping container as a Canberra resident include:
Creating a Workshop or Office

- Sturdy shelving that is ideal for holding heavy goods and storing files
- Room divisions that allow you to create separate spaces
- Locks, which will help you keep your office or workshop secure
- Windows so you don’t have to work without natural light
