Bulker Shipping Containers for Bulk Dry Storage

The 20ft Bulker Shipping Container stores dry bulk goods like grain, sugar, and stockfeed, with roof-mounted loading hatches and a front discharge hatch. Product pours straight in from the top and out the front. It’s also internally wider than a 20ft Standard Shipping Container, so two pallets fit side by side and you get more usable storage space.

Steel walls and a steel floor handle the abrasion that comes with loose product, which is why they are the popular choice for farms, feed operations, and anywhere moving a high volume of dry goods. Container Traders stocks used 20ft Bulker Shipping Containers with Australia-wide delivery and CSC survey on request.

    “Excellent service from Lachlan Wilson on purchasing a 40ft container for storage at our winery. He kept me informed on progress and delivery. Special thanks to the delivery driver who negotiated our steep windy drive and slotted the container in perfectly into a tight space.”

    Amy was fantastic. She was able to assist with all my questions, and I was very happy with the quoted price. Very fast delivery, they even delivered it from Sydney to Canberra on the same day I paid for it! If you’re lucky enough to get Amy, you won’t be disappointed. Container Traders was by far the best place I tried, unlike the other companies.
