Container Movers in Brisbane

Need a shipping container moved in Brisbane? CCE Express moves loaded and empty 20ft, 40ft and high-cube containers between the wharf, your premises, storage yards and container parks. Every move is quoted up front, planned around site access and run by an NHVR Accredited operator, so you know what the job costs and when the truck arrives.

Container movers for shipping containers across Brisbane, from the wharf, your site or a container park.

Container moves we handle

Most container moves fall into a handful of jobs. Whichever one you have, tell us the container size, both addresses and how the box will be lifted at each end, and we will price it.

  • Wharf or container park to your site
  • Site to site relocation of a container you already own or hire
  • Loaded container movements to and from warehouses
  • Empty container returns and dehire to the nominated park

Site access decides the equipment

The biggest cost driver on a container move is how the container gets on and off the trailer. If your site has a forklift or crane, a skel trailer is the cheapest option. If it does not, a sideloader lifts the box on and off at ground level without any other machinery. Send us a photo of the placement area and we will tell you which one suits.

  • Skel trailer where a forklift or crane is available
  • Sideloader where the container must be self-loaded
  • Level, firm ground and clear overhead access at the drop point
  • Driveway, gate and turning space checked before the truck is dispatched

Where we move containers

We move containers across metropolitan Brisbane and the surrounding corridors, including Coopers Plains, Acacia Ridge, Rocklea, Wacol, Lytton, Hemmant, Wynnum, Northgate, Yatala and Ipswich, plus the Port of Brisbane precinct. Regional moves to Toowoomba, the Darling Downs, the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast are quoted case by case.
