Darwin Container Transport
Moving shipping containers across Darwin or into remote areas requires more than just a truck—it takes the right gear and a team that knows what they’re doing. At JEC Transport, we specialise in container transport with side loaders, tilt trays and prime movers designed to handle even the trickiest pickups and drop-offs. Whether you’re shifting a 20-foot container from a yard to a port, or need a 40-foot high cube delivered to a remote site, we make sure it’s done quickly, safely and with minimal disruption. Our equipment allows us to load and unload in tight spaces, so you don’t need cranes or forklifts on-site.
From single containers to ongoing logistics, we keep things moving on your schedule. Give us a call on (08) 8947 1870 to book a container move that’s fast, efficient and tailored to your needs.

Container Moves Made Easy
We know how valuable your time and cargo are, so our container transport service is built around simplicity and reliability. Our side loaders and tilt trays make it possible to load containers directly from the ground without extra handling equipment. That means quicker turnaround times and less risk of damage. Whether it’s general freight, household goods, equipment or business stock inside the container, we treat every job with care. Our team coordinates every step—routing, scheduling, paperwork—so all you have to do is tell us where and when.
We’re available 24/7 and can handle everything from one-off moves to long-term logistics partnerships. Let us take the stress out of moving containers around Darwin and the Northern Territory.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size containers can be transported?
Most transport companies can handle standard 20-foot and 40-foot shipping containers, including high cube variants. These containers meet international dimensions, making them compatible with most tilt tray and side loader systems. If your container is a non-standard size or has added weight due to contents, check with the transport provider about specialised equipment or permits.
Do I need a crane to load or unload a container?
Not necessarily. Tilt tray and side loader trucks are designed to load and unload containers without the need for external cranes or forklifts. A tilt tray slides the container off at ground level, while a side loader lifts and places the container beside the truck. These methods reduce handling time and eliminate the need for extra machinery.
Can you transport full containers with goods inside?
Yes, as long as the total weight of the container and its contents complies with road transport laws. Make sure everything inside is properly secured before transport to avoid internal movement or damage. A good transport provider will confirm weight limits and may offer advice on how to pack or secure your goods safely.
