Need to move a 10ft, 20ft or 40ft shipping container safely?
WestAus Heavy Tow provides container transport across Perth, the Perth metropolitan area and key logistics corridors throughout Western Australia. Based south of Perth, we regularly move containers through Baldivis, Kwinana, Cockburn, Bibra Lake, Fremantle, Henderson, Rockingham, Welshpool and surrounding industrial areas.
Whether your container is being moved between a storage yard, construction site, residential property, rural block, depot or commercial facility, our team plans the move carefully so the right truck, equipment and access approach are used from the start.
Call 0434 001 100 to discuss your container move.
We transport a wide range of sea containers and site containers, including:
Before your job is booked, we confirm the container size, estimated weight, pickup location, delivery location and site access. This helps us select the correct truck and avoid delays on the day.
Different container moves require different equipment. WestAus operates a heavy-duty fleet that includes side loader trucks, tilt trays and heavy transport vehicles capable of handling containers up to 36 tonnes, depending on the job requirements. A side loader is often the best option when a container needs to be lifted directly on or off the ground and positioned accurately beside the truck. A tilt tray may be suitable for certain container moves where access, weight and placement conditions allow it.
To help your container delivery run smoothly, clear vehicles, machinery and materials from the access path before the truck arrives, and make sure the ground is firm, level and suitable for heavy vehicles. Check for low trees, power lines, eaves or shade structures, confirm which way the container doors should face, and allow enough room for the truck to position safely.
Container moves are not always convenient or predictable. Some jobs need to happen outside normal business hours to suit site access, traffic conditions or urgent operational needs. WestAus offers 24/7 availability for container transport enquiries and urgent heavy transport requirements across Perth and WA. For urgent bookings, call 0434 001 100.
Shipping container transport is not just a matter of sending a truck. A safe and efficient move depends on careful planning.
Before transport, we may ask about:
If a site has tight access, uneven ground or limited clearance, let us know early. Our team can advise whether a side loader, tilt tray or another heavy transport option is likely to suit the job.

From a single storage container to urgent site relocation, we help make the move straightforward.
The cost depends on the container size, weight, pickup location, delivery location, distance, truck type, access conditions and placement requirements.
A short metro move for an empty 20ft container will usually be more straightforward than a long-distance move for a heavy 40ft container with tight site access. The fastest way to get an accurate price is to call WestAus with the container size, pickup suburb, delivery suburb and any access details.
The truck depends on the container and site conditions. Side loader trucks are commonly used when a container needs to be lifted on or off the ground and placed beside the truck. Tilt trays may be suitable for some container moves, depending on weight, access and placement requirements.
WestAus will recommend the right vehicle after checking the container size, weight, access and delivery location.
Yes. Weight is one of the most important factors in container transport. A loaded container may require different equipment, additional planning or specific handling compared with an empty container.
If your container is loaded, tell us what is inside and provide the estimated total weight. This helps us confirm whether the move can be completed safely and legally.
Yes. WestAus provides container transport across Perth and regional Western Australia. We regularly assist with metro moves, industrial transfers, rural deliveries and longer-distance container relocations.
Call us with your pickup and delivery locations so we can confirm availability and provide a quote.
Before delivery, make sure the truck has safe access to the placement area. Clear the route, check for overhead obstructions, confirm the door direction, and make sure the ground is firm enough for a heavy vehicle.
Tell us about any tight driveways, soft ground, slopes, low trees, power lines or restricted turning areas before the job. This helps us plan the move correctly.
