What’s the difference between a standard Shipping Containers and a Dangerous Goods Containers?
A standard shipping container is designed for general-purpose storage or freight and is not suitable for storing hazardous materials. It lacks the safety features and compliance required for dangerous goods.

A dangerous goods container, on the other hand, is purpose-built to store and transport hazardous substances safely. It includes features like a bunded (spill-proof) floor, ventilation, safety signage, and construction that complies with Australian Standard AS1940. These containers are essential when storing flammable liquids, chemicals, or toxic substances to ensure safety and meet legal obligations.
