Guide pricing only, ex GST. The figure you actually pay moves with the grade, with what is available that week, and with the run out to your address. Ring (07) 4141 7699 for a real number rather than a range.

As-is units are the cheap end and they are not sold watertight. They are sold on condition, described plainly, and we will tell you what is wrong with one before you buy it rather than after. If the contents have to stay dry, buy cargo-worthy.

What we do differently to a freight broker

Five things, stated plainly enough that you can hold us to them.

01

A South Burnett number that a person answers — (07) 4141 7699

02

Cargo-worthy units checked wind and watertight before they are loaded

03

As-is units sold cheaper and described honestly — they are not sold watertight

04

One delivered figure with the cartage already in it, quoted up front rather than after the truck rolls

05

Photos of your actual container on request, sent before delivery

06

Advice that occasionally costs us the sale — if the cheaper grade does the job, we will say so.

Three things worth knowing before you order

Grade moves the price more than size does

New single-trip, cargo-worthy and as-is are three genuinely different purchases. Every cargo-worthy unit is checked wind and watertight before it is loaded. As-is units are cheaper again and are not sold watertight — we describe the faults before you buy rather than after. Work out whether the contents can get wet and the grade decides itself. There is a full rundown in the grades guide.

Where it sits matters as much as what you buy

Red basalt soil is compressible and it does not settle evenly, so a container set straight on it drops a corner and takes a twist through the frame. Four bearing points under the corner castings fixes it permanently and takes ten minutes on delivery day. Siting a container on red soil covers the rest.

Access decides the truck, and the truck decides the freight

Width at the pinch point, length of the straight run-in, and what hangs above the spot. Three photographs answer all of it faster than a description does. See delivery and access.
