Frequently Asked Questions | Prime Trailers Australia
Serving Australian businesses and homeowners for over 26 years.
How did Prime Trailers Australia get started, and why have you been in business for 26 years?
Prime Trailers Australia was founded with a simple mission: to provide high-quality, versatile shipping containers that go beyond basic storage. Over two decades ago, we saw a gap in the Australian market for durable, multi-purpose containers backed by genuine customer service. What began as a small family-run operation has grown into a trusted national supplier, not through aggressive marketing, but through word-of-mouth and long-term relationships. For 26 years, we’ve thrived by staying true to our values: transparent pricing, honest condition reporting (new or used), and a passion for helping Australians transform containers into home offices, pop-up shops, farm sheds, and more. Our longevity is proof of our reliability.
Where is Prime Trailers Australia located?
We are proudly Australian-owned and operated. Our primary depot is located in Australia, with delivery capabilities across most of mainland Australia, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, and regional areas. Contact us for a custom delivery quote.
What types of shipping containers do you offer?
We supply a wide range of new and used shipping containers suitable for both storage and conversion projects. Our inventory includes:
Standard 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft containers
High-cube containers (extra vertical height)
Refrigerated (reefer) containers
Open-top and side-opening containers
Custom-modified units (windows, doors, insulation, shelving)
All containers are wind and watertight, structurally sound, and graded to industry standards. We fully comply with Google Merchant policies by accurately describing whether a container is new, used, or refurbished, no misleading claims.
Can I convert a container into a home office, café, gym, or pop-up bar?
Absolutely. Over the past 26 years, we’ve supplied containers for hundreds of creative conversions, including:
Home offices & music studios
Pop-up restaurants and bars
Gyms and yoga studios
Summer retreats and tiny homes
Breweries and retail shops
We encourage unconventional ideas. Our team can advise on what’s structurally possible, and we can either supply a bare container or assist with pre-arranged modifications through trusted local fabricators.
Do you offer custom modifications?
Yes. We can arrange professional modifications such as:
Personnel doors and roller shutter doors
Window cutouts (various sizes)
Internal and external insulation
Electrical and plumbing conduits
Ventilation systems
Security lockboxes
Please note: Any electrical or gas fit-out must be completed by licensed Australian tradespeople to meet local council and safety regulations.
How much does a shipping container cost?
Pricing varies based on size, condition (new vs. used), modifications, and delivery location. As a general guide:
Used 20ft containers start from approximately $3,500 + GST
New 20ft containers start from approximately $6,500 + GST
We do not engage in bait-and-switch pricing. All quotes are itemised, transparent, and valid for 14 days. Contact us for a firm, no-obligation quote.
Do you deliver across Australia?
Yes. We deliver to most areas of Australia, including capital cities and many regional towns. Delivery costs depend on distance, accessibility, and if a tilt-tray or crane truck is required. We will always confirm the final delivery fee in writing before you commit.
