Are new Sea Containers economical?

New Sea Containers generally cost marginally more than used containers. However, considering their longer lifespan, lower maintenance needs, and higher resale value, they offer excellent value for money.

Are new Sea Containers for sale in Australia?

Yes, Perth Containers offers a range of new sea containers in 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft sizes, available in most capital cities.

Are Sea Containers suitable for use as Sheds?

Sea Containers make excellent sheds due to their strength, security and easy transportability. They also offer one of the best on-site storage solutions, as long as you have the space.

Are Sea Containers suitable for use as workshops?

Sea Container workshops are good because they are affordable, dry, secure and transportable. They can be custom fitted to how you need them to be setup for your needs and they come in a verity of sizes and dimensions.

Are there any special considerations for placing Sea Containers on the ground?

Containers are designed to sit on their four corner posts, so the key requirement is to ensure the ground is firm and level. This helps prevent “racking,” where the doors become misaligned. If racking occurs, the container would need to be lifted and repositioned to fix it. For containers that will stay in one place for an extended period, it’s recommended to place a paving-sized block (made of concrete or treated timber) under each corner to allow airflow underneath the container.

Are vents and whirly birds useful in Sea Containers?

It really depends on what you’re storing. If you’re storing dry goods and don’t need frequent access, the breather vents on the container’s side walls are usually sufficient. However, if you’re storing items that generate condensation, installing two vents and a whirly bird can help create cross-flow ventilation inside the container, reducing the risk of mould.

Can used Sea Containers be modified?

All Sea Containers can be modified, but we recommend investing in a New Sea Container. New Sea Containers have straight, unbent walls, which provide a better foundation and a more polished result once fitted out.
