ABC Container Hire & Sales delivers shipping containers across Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, Moreton Bay and Redlands - for hire or purchase. Our Brisbane depot is located in Hemmant, right next to the Port of Brisbane, so stock is local and delivery is usually 2-3 days. Containers range from 10ft to 40ft, standard and specialised, with hire from $20 a week inc GST.
The full range: 10ft, 20ft and 40ft general purpose and high cube, side-opening, double-door, refrigerated, and specialised containers. Office fit-outs and custom modifications built right here in the Brisbane depot.
Brisbane container hire starts at around $20 a week including GST for a standard 20ft container, with the exact rate depending on size, grade and hire length. Delivery is quoted separately based on your address. Get a free quote for the real number — no “starting from”.
Most Brisbane deliveries land 2–3 days after you book, because stock sits at our Hemmant depot rather than being freighted in. Tight timelines — let the team know and they’ll work to it.
Yes. Logan and Ipswich are standard delivery areas from our Hemmant depot, on the same 2–3 day lead time as Brisbane metro.
Our Brisbane depot is at Hemmant, on the eastern side of the city next to the Port of Brisbane. You’re welcome to visit and walk through the stock — a quick call ahead means we’ll have the right containers ready for you.
To get a container quote from ABC, request one online through the quote form or call your nearest depot. Tell us what you're storing, the size you think you need, your location, and whether you want to hire or buy. A real person gets back to you, usually within a few hours, with an actual price — not a “from”.
Most containers are delivered by tilt-tray truck, which tilts its tray to slide the container off and place it precisely — including down many suburban driveways. The driver positions it where you want it. Access matters: discuss driveway width, slope, overhead branches and ground conditions when you quote so the right truck is sent.
Delivery to Queensland metro areas and major towns typically takes 3–5 days from booking, because stock sits at a local depot rather than being freighted long distances. Rural and remote delivery takes longer and depends on the run. If you have a deadline, tell the team when you quote.
ABC delivers shipping containers across all of Queensland and into Northern NSW. Metro and major towns are standard delivery; rural and remote addresses, including Western Queensland, are quoted on distance and access. If you can give us the address, we can tell you the delivery. See the delivery areas page.
Access problems are best caught before the truck is booked — that's why ABC talks through driveway width, slope, gateways, overhead branches and ground conditions when you quote. If a standard tilt-tray can't reach, there are options like crane placement or a different truck. A two-minute conversation upfront avoids a failed delivery.
Prepare a reasonably level, firm area for your container — level so the doors work and the frame doesn't twist, firm so it doesn't sink. Many customers place containers on timber sleepers, concrete blocks or a compacted pad at the corners. Allow room for the delivery truck. The site preparation guide has the detail.
