20ft Grade A Standard Shipping Container

Grade A is the used container you buy when appearance still matters but the one-trip price does not work. These have normally been in service less than eight years and have been maintained to a high standard through their working life — so the paint is intact rather than patched, the doors work without persuasion, and the floor has not been beaten up by careless forklift work.

It is the grade self-storage operators, schools and businesses on visible sites tend to settle on after looking at both ends of the market.

Specifications

Stock is unit by unit

Grade A is a description of condition, not a manufacturing specification, so every unit is different. Contact us for specific container information and current availability rather than assuming what is pictured is what is in the yard — we would rather tell you before you order.

Where it sits on price

Above wind-and-watertight stock, below cargo-worthy and well below one-trip. What the extra buys is cosmetic condition and fewer surprises, not more space. Our container grades explained guide sets out what each term means, and the price guide shows where they sit in the current market.

Delivery

Containers can be delivered to locations throughout Australia at a flat A$450. Have four bearers ready at the corner positions and a clear straight run for the tilt-tray. More stock is in the used container range.
