Shipping Container Costs to Australia

Australia is one of the top expat destinations in the world, and with good reason. Brilliant sunshine, bustling cities, and golden beaches await. There’s no reason why shipping your belongings to Australia can’t be easy. As with most things, it’s simply a case of planning ahead. From personal effects to cars, we can connect you with the right door-to-door shipping provider for your journey down under.



If you're thinking of shipping your belongings by sea freight – and you should, since it's typically much cheaper than air freight, and just as safe – you can expect to pay around £9,000 ($12,400) for a 20-foot container, and £17,000 ($23,500) for a 40-foot container.

Different shipping options

Shipping your things to Australia should be straightforward. You can send them by sea or by air. Obviously, land isn’t an option. Not to worry, though. In the world of shipping a ‘sea-locked’ country is an accessible country. While shipping by air is usually faster, it is also more expensive than by sea. Scheduling your move properly goes a long way. Door-to-door shipping is a standard in international freight, and it’s the most convenient option for a large move abroad, especially to a country as large as Australia. 

Major shipping routes

We’d be mightily impressed if you managed to ship to Australia without using sea or air options. The ‘sealocked’ nation processes most of its freight by sea, with ports and shipping container terminals dotted all along the coastline. They include:
  • Sydney
  • Melbourne
  • Fremantle
  • Brisbane
  • Townsville
Melbourne and Sydney are the big hitters, and if you’re moving to either of those cities you’re set. If you’re headed north-east then you’ll probably go through Brisbane, while Fremantle will serve you well on the west coast. Townsville isn’t exactly a shipping powerhouse, we just wanted you to know there’s a place called Townsville.Wherever you’re headed in Australia there’s likely to be a port nearby. Getting your things shipped should be a breeze.

Australian customs

Like anywhere else, Australia has its own quirks when it comes to customs. With quite a self-contained ecosystem to protect, they can be a little precious about animals, plant life, and food products. Doomsday viruses are probably best left at home, and any pets will need to go through quarantine. Otherwise, it’s the standard fare of packing sensibly and declaring items through the proper channels – in this case the Australian Border Force. You won’t have to handle this alone. Our partners are well-versed in the process and will walk you through it.Some of the main problem items are listed below, but for a proper breakdown of what to expect you can’t argue with the official website. (No really, you can’t.) For a digestible guide, they recommend downloading the Dangerous Goods Manual, and so do we.
