Shipping Container Transport

C2Road’s shipping container transport service is reliable, professional and efficient. Our team prides itself on not only delivering high quality work, but providing constant, friendly communication with our clients to ensure they are updated with every step of the service they’re paying for. We have a fleet of trucks that all serve a different purpose so that we can cater for every single client’s needs.

Our large depot is based in Hemmant, just a stone’s throw away from the Port of Brisbane, meaning we can provide fast shipping container removals and delivery. We have been accredited with the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (previously NHVAS) since we began trading as well as holding maintenance and mass accreditations and MIMS permits. We understand the value of these accreditations, so to ensure we stay weight compliant we go above and beyond what is required and fit every piece of equipment in our fleet with on-board scales.

How to Transport a Shipping Container

C2Road offers reliable shipping container moving and storage services to exporters, Freight forwarders and Customs Brokers. We are a family owned business offering a niche service, working to be able to provide a solution for every single customer. Unlike other shipping container transport businesses, we specialise in Full Container Load (FCL) transport only, allowing us to be completely focused on what we do best. To deliver our services, we have invested in a fleet of trucks that service a range of different needs including a Side Loader, Skel Trailer, A-Double and B-Double. Safety and Compliance is of the utmost importance to C2Road. Therefore, every piece of equipment in our fleet is fitted with air-weight on-board scales. These scales give us accurate axle weight readings which always allows us to operate legally and safely.

Side Loader Container Transport Brisbane

A side loader is a truck with a capacity of 25 tonnes and is ideal for spacious sites, or sites that would like to have the container left onsite for several days. This is because a side loader is designed so that two cranes can go either side of the truck, lift the container from the truck and place it on the ground. When the container is empty, truck drivers will arrive at site for pickup at their earliest convenience.

Skel Trailer Container Transport Brisbane

A Skel trailer has a 30-tonne capacity and is designed for those customers who have a dock and/or need the container to stay on the truck while unloaded.

Moving Shipping Containers

In addition to transporting shipping containers directly from the port to your site, we also have the capacity to pick up multiple containers from the port at once and store them at our facility until the client is ready for delivery.

Empty Container Transport

In addition to dropping full containers off to clients, we also offer an empty container transport service for exporting properties. This works in a similar way to our shipping container transport service, only our team will drop off an empty container for you to fill up before taking this to back to the port to be loaded for export.
