Do you use shipping containers to store stuff on site and need to move them from time to time? Then the challenge of transporting a heavy shipping container is a familiar one. Forget the hassle of expensive and cumbersome cranes or specialised trucks. We offer a range of innovative solutions designed to make moving your shipping container easier, safer, and more cost-effective.

We understand that every move is different, which is why we offer two main capacity options to suit your needs. For standard applications, our 20,000kg capacity solution provides a robust and reliable way to handle most container moves. If you're dealing with heavier loads or specialized containers, our 32,000kg capacity container skates offers the extra strength and peace of mind you need.

For short-distance movements within a yard or warehouse, our 8,000kg container castors are the perfect choice. These heavy-duty castors attach directly to the corner castings of your shipping container, allowing you to easily roll it into position. They are ideal for situations where you need to precisely position a container, such as aligning it with a building or another container, without the need for heavy machinery.

Want to move your container with a vehicle? Our container towbar is designed to fit directly into the shipping container's corner castings, providing a secure and reliable connection. This option allows you to tow the container with a suitable vehicle, making it a great solution for moving a container across a yard or a short distance on private property.

Equipment Warehouse also offers wheel hub sets that are designed to be used with common vehicle wheels. Our hubs are compatible with Landcruiser, Ford, or Holden wheels, allowing you to easily add wheels to the shipping container. This is an excellent, cost-effective option, particularly for moving empty or partially loaded containers, giving you the flexibility to use wheels you may already have access to.

No matter the size of your container or the complexity of your move, we have the right tools to get the job done. Our products are engineered for durability, safety, and ease of use, ensuring that your next container move is as smooth as possible.
