Grading Brochure

How is this container delivered?

The delivery method for your container depends on several factors including your location, site accessibility, and whether you need the container placed in a specific position.

Our team will assess your requirements and recommend the most suitable delivery option. Here are the delivery methods we offer across Tasmania:

  • Semi Tilt Tray Truck

    The most common delivery method for larger units. The truck tilts
    its tray to slide the container off onto level ground.

    • Requires firm, level ground
    • Suitable for most commercial sites
    • Container slides off the back of the truck
    • Most cost-effective option

  • Semi Side Loader

    A semi side loader is a specialised trailer equipped with hydraulic cranes that lift and place shipping containers from the side. It allows for quick, efficient loading and unloading without the need for additional lifting equipment, making it ideal for container transport to and from site.

    • Trailer fitted with hydraulic side-loading cranes (front and rear)
    • Designed specifically for loading and unloading shipping containers
    • Lifts containers from the ground and places them directly beside the trailer
    • No external crane or forklift required

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the 40ft standard container used for?
