20ft Custom Container Office – Shipping Container House

About this unit

The 20ft Custom Container Office Shipping Container House is part of our container home office range, held for sale and hire from our Queensland depot, delivered Australia-wide. Every unit is inspected before it leaves the yard: doors swung, seals checked, floor sounded and the frame photographed as found. Delivery is quoted against your postcode and site access, and we tell you before you commit whether the truck can set the unit down where you want it. Modification is available on this unit — doors, windows, partitions, insulation, power and fit-out — quoted separately and built in our own workshop.

Hire is available for short and long terms, with the same inspection standard applied to hired units as to sold ones.

20ft Custom Container Office Shipping Container House is a fitted-out building rather than a bare steel shell, held in the container home office range and released from our Queensland yard for delivery to every state and territory in Australia.

Recorded specification for this 20ft Custom Container Office Shipping Container House: length 20 ft. Anything not listed here is quoted on request rather than assumed.

Every listing on this page describes the actual unit. Condition is inspected and photographed before dispatch, the price shown is the 20ft Custom Container Office Shipping Container House only with delivery quoted separately against your postcode, and nothing on the page is a stock claim we cannot stand behind.

Buying a 20ft Custom Container Office Shipping Container House

The 20ft Custom Container Office Shipping Container House is sold as an individual unit, inspected before dispatch and priced as listed. If you are weighing up a 20ft Custom Container Office Shipping Container House against a newer or larger equivalent, the condition report and the access to your site matter more than the model year.

Buying for a project, or for good?

If the cabin is needed for the life of a project, hiring is usually the better commercial decision because
servicing and maintenance stay with us. Buy when the building is permanent, when the fit-out has to be specific to
your operation, or when the term of hire would exceed the purchase price. Either way, the same unit can usually be
supplied on either basis — ask and we will price both.

Transport and craning a fitted-out unit

A fitted-out cabin is heavier than a bare container, and most are set down with a crane or a side-loader
rather than a tilt-tray. That changes both the cost and the access you need at the site. Level ground is
non-negotiable — a cabin that racks will crack lining, bind the door and leak at the joins within a season,
and none of that is a manufacturing fault.

What we check, and why it matters

The failures that cost money later are rarely visible in a photo. Door seals that have gone hard let water in
along the floor. A floor that sounds hollow has lost its ply or its timber. Corner castings that have been
impacted affect lifting and securing. Every unit is checked against those points before dispatch, and the findings
are photographed so there is a record you can compare against on arrival.

Before you commit

Two things decide whether a unit works on your site: access and ground. Measure the gate, walk the route the
truck will take, and check what is overhead. The ground needs to be firm and level — anything sitting on soft
ground will settle and twist, and doors stop lining up when it does. Send a photo of the gate and the drop area and
we will tell you honestly whether the delivery will work before anything is booked.

Delivery and what it costs

The price shown is the 20ft Custom Container Office Shipping Container House only. Delivery is quoted separately against your postcode and site access, and it
is the honest way to do it — a drop fifteen kilometres from the yard and a drop twelve hundred kilometres
away are not the same job. Units are released from our Queensland yard and delivered to every state and territory
in Australia. Queensland drops generally run on our own trucks; interstate moves on scheduled freight, with the
booked window and carrier details confirmed in writing before dispatch.

Tell us about tight gates, low branches and overhead lines when you ask for a price. If a tilt-tray cannot
reach the drop point, a crane or side-loader will, and knowing that up front is the difference between an accurate
quote and a second invoice.

Changes, fit-out and modification

Anything that needs cutting, welding, wiring or lining is done in our own workshop rather than subcontracted,
which is why we can tell you what a change will actually cost before you commit. Doors, windows, partitions,
insulation, power, plumbing and full fit-outs are all container modification work we
quote on the details of your job rather than off a price list.

Hire instead of buying

If the need is for the life of a project rather than forever, hiring is usually cheaper
and you do not carry the asset, the transport or the maintenance. Buy when the unit is permanent, when you need a
specific configuration, or when the hire term would run past the purchase price. Short and long terms are both
available, and we will quote it against the same unit you are looking at here.
