Absolutely 100% happy with the gang at Container Traders, Amy looked after the deal from start to finish. She said the Container would be in good condition wow it's like a new one the door seals are perfect too, definitely do yourself a favour and pay the small extra $ for an ex hire unit well worth the investment.
I ordered a 20-foot container, which was delivered as promised and in immaculate condition without any problems. The service was brilliant from ordering to delivery and the follow up from the company was faultless Show reply
We Can't fault Container Traders!! We dealt with Sam who was very helpful, he also organised the transport (All States towing, also professional). The containers arrived in the condition they'd been described to me. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Container Traders. Many Thanks!!

I bought a container 5 years ago and it's a piece of rubbish. After 5 years, the roof is rusted through and falling in. The walls are all rusting through too. I have had to put colorbond over the top. Even if there were leaves on the roof, that doesn't explain the walls rusting through too. I should never have got them to paint it, it hid the rust. I would never recommend this company.
Awesome communication prior to delivery to ensure there was no issues. And great after delivery service to make sure I was happy. Driver worked with me and delivered in the perfect spot on my drive. Whole process went smoothly. Highly recommend. Show reply

We recently purchased four shipping containers from Container Traders and couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Amy was incredibly helpful and professional. They provided a competitive price and were always quick to respond to any questions we had. Customer service was outstanding, friendly, reliable, and easy to deal… Read more · 1
with throughout the entire process. Delivery was efficient and arrived when promised.
Most importantly, the containers themselves were in excellent condition, exactly as described. Its clear they take pride in the quality of their products.
We highly recommend Container Traders to anyone looking for a smooth, stress-free experience and value for money. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again in future!
My 20ft container was delivered this morning. A huge shout out to Fred who delivered our container. He is such a calm meticulous driver and obviously respects the truck as well as our property. I also want to say what a pleasure it was dealing with Amy Crossan. She is very professional and efficient, with warmth and friendliness to her, making it… Read more · 1

Spoke too Lachie and got a container from him delivered on time with good communication. Show reply
Fantastic rapid replies for pricing and availability and next day delivery to remote location. Highly recommend to others for service and product availability and quality. Thanks Lachlan and team Show reply
Great sales service from Sam. He consistently responded to my questions within 24 hours, even when I had several technical queries. The 40ft two‑door side‑opening container is perfect for my workshop setup, with the side doors opening neatly into my existing shed. Delivery was right on schedule, and the container was positioned within 1 cm of the… Read more · 1
exact spot I requested. You can have complete confidence in Container Traders as a legitimate and reliable business. I can’t recommend them highly enough, and I would gladly work with them again if I ever need another container.

Excellent, prompt and polite services from Lachlan. We took forever to get it all sorted, but it was never on Container Traders always on govenment doing what they promised over 12 months ago. Everything arrived as ordered and as measured, everywhere else I tried there were compromises to be made for a simple custom order, but here nothing but… Read more · 1
saying "yes we can do that" and cost was on par or better than any alternatives.
No hesitation to recommend them to anyone.
Friendly staff. Good Quote. Delivered as promised more words. more words Show reply
Outstanding services from Amy and her team. They took the time to listen, understand my specific needs and gave me quality advice to make informed decisions. Ended up buying a container from them instead of renting. Amy was onto it right away, regular communications to updates us and the container was delivered faster than what we anticipated. Show reply

Excellent and very personal service. The container was delivered right on the time they said it would arrive and was put exactly where I wanted it. Perfect. Show reply
I dealt with Sam that gave a good price, including delivery, 50km from the depot and was more than reasonable. Driver made sure it was placed exactly as requested. Am ordering again :) Show reply

I purchased a high cube 40ft container for the use by my Tree Service business from these guys. Needed to be delived to Armidale NSW. I have been hesitant in the past due to the number of Shipping container scams on the web. The quote from container… Read more
traders was better than local purchase and delivery by a large margin. It seemed too good to be true. This company is legit. Lachlan and his staff were efficient and friendly. Hunter Haulage were tasked with the delivery. The truck driver was excellent. He notified me that he was nearing my place and we sorted out the procedure ( residential corner block in town). The driver skillfuly deposited the container, gave me options and made sure that i was ok with its positioning etc. I totally recommend Container traders. Luke. (Skytask Tree Services)
Follow-up · Container was on time. Payment process was smooth and the container was in great condition. Totally weather proof- tested with 3 rainstorms, completely dry inside.
Purchase of container feedback – We were in the market for a 20ft shipping container. And after talking to a number of people it became obvious that there is a perception out there, that one need to be aware of scammers. Not being experienced in container purchasing, we went with… Read more · 1
our gut feeling. Ringing a few companies researched online, we came across Lachlan from container traders. From the word go he was providing us with good suggestions on different options we discussed. And as we are like most people these days are on a budget we worked out an acceptable price on a single use 20ft container in a suitable dark grey Color to be delivered to our property approx 350km from their depot. Long story short, from the initial conversation through to the delivery as well as follow-up afterwords it was a great and uncomplicated experience to deal with Lachlan from container traders.
Follow-up · I was asked to provide a few lines regarding some follow up requests based on the initial review based on the following questions. What was the payment process? If memory serves, it was either over the phone or online. Either or, it was straight forward and with no fuss. What delivery options were available? We left it up to the supplier after… Read more
100% happy with our delivery, we got 2 x new 20" containers for our store and Container traders where very helpful with the best price for containers and delivery. we had quick response to all enquiries and quote requests. we had roof vents… Read more · 1
installed which was done very well with top quality work. containers are only 3 months old and in great condition and there delivery was arranged quickly and delivered right on my position marking. was a bit nervous with ordering online with so many scams at the moment but i can confirm these guys are legit and a great deal and very helpful to rush delivery and get these in before Christmas.
Follow-up · we had the roof vent installed which was done very well, no leaks and the vent was super easy to attach after it was delivered with no leaks and definitely keeps the temp a lot lower inside. having the lock box cover installed was a bonus as i was not expecting it and makes it a lot safer knowing no one can easily cut the locks off. still very happy we went through this company

Amazing Service – We researched many companies to purchase two containers to temporarily store our household contents for our move to Sydney so we were very mindful of receiving containers that were watertight, vermin and insect proof. Also price played a part in it. We found Container Traders and in particular Amy, described the containers we would receive in… Read more · 1
detail. They were very responsive to our initial enquiry as well as the numerous questions we had following. Nothing was a problem for them. We received responses to our emails almost immediately each time which was reassuring to us. The containers were delivered on time and placed exactly where we asked them to be placed. The truck driver was very nice to deal with and helpful and he ensured the containers were placed as level as possible and as close together as possible. To our pleasant surprise the containers we received were brand new! (the smell of fresh paint inside was evident) the floor was brand new, they were water tight, vermin and insect proof and it was everything as promised by Container Traders (Amy) Container Traders pricing was very competitive with the 6 or so quotes we received elsewhere, and elsewhere were being offered second hand or repainted used containers. Delivery of the containers was almost half the cost other businesses were offering us and the communication we received elsewhere was no where near as good as Container Traders. We had some last minute issues with our move (it had nothing to do with Container Traders) and we contacted Amy to see if she could help, Amy and the management team were amazing, they were so understanding of our situation and as per all the other times we contacted them, nothing was a problem and the issue with our move was resolved within hours. We highly recommend Container Traders to anyone looking to purchase or hire a container. If we ever need a container we will definitely be contacting Container Traders
purchase of a 40ft high cube container – I started discussing my container requirements with Alec last year, but the delay was me setting up the area for it. When I again contacted Container Traders Lachlan took over as Alec was still on holidays. Lachlan was very easy to chat to (as was Alec), very informative & helpful. After a few emails Lachlan had me all sorted out & sent me an… Read more · 1
invoice which I paid via bank transfer. This was Thursday afternoon, I sent Lachlan a copy of the transfer receipt & he confirmed a few minutes later that delivery would be the Monday morning....wow, that was quick. Thank you very much Lachlan. On Fri I received a call from the driver to confirm some details & said he would be at my place by about 8.30 on the Monday morning. He was here just after 8, The container is in really solid condition as they indicated, even wife said it's in better condition than the one I had in Sydney for over 12 years. When I can I will have it put into position by crane (side loader truck unable to position where I needed it, I expected this before purchase. Thank you very much Container Traders, highly recommend your staff & your containers.
from Service and friendliness to professionalism – I had the need to find an alternative to a shed, and something that was not easily stolen, and I was told to look for a shipping container, for three months I searched and found many in my local area that were simply asking far too much for a third rate beat up or top rate container, and I could not justify the prices that were on offer.

to the Capital city of Australia has a price gouge automatically included. Then I found Shipping container traders dot com, and the service i got, the friendliness was still there i when i was unsure about the purchase, as I knew so little except for photos compered from other sites. The gentleman bent over backwards to get me a container that would fit into my budget. So I ordered and half expected a container full of dents or rust but what arrived was as close to perfect as could be. I will try to add a photo at a later time, but when it is moved into position where I can then put my mobile home next to.

We bought 2x 20ft containers off container traders and was very happy with the quality of the containers and customer service we had from Amy. She made everything easy (even with us constantly changing our mind) and helped us with every step. A+++++ for Amy !
Container Traders delivered our new shipping container today which was much quicker than I thought. Driver was very polite & really helpful. He assisted me to get this container in the best possible position. I would not hesitate in recommending this company. Great work guys!

driver was very skillful and placed both containers exactly where I wanted them. I have already recommended Container Traders to friends and gave them Lachlan's name as a reliable contact.
Lachlan held off on the first container because he thought it wasn't good enough for what we wanted it for. After checking the one he sent, it was worth the wait. Looking for a container, tell him what you want to use it for, pretty sure he will deliver the goods. Wayne and Denise Show reply
