Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about your 40ft Hi-Cube Container — warranty, delivery, and purchasing.
What warranty comes with this unit?+
New Cabins Direct cabins and containers are covered by a 12-month warranty from the date of delivery for defects in material and workmanship under normal use. Structural cover is confirmed at the time of sale. The warranty is non-transferable and applies to the original purchaser only.
How much deposit is required to order?+
A minimum deposit of 10% of the total purchase price is required upon order confirmation.
Is there a cooling-off period on my deposit?+
Yes. A 7-day cooling-off period applies from the date of your order. During this time you may cancel and receive a full refund of your deposit. After 7 days, refund decisions are at the sole discretion of Cabins Direct. Special or custom orders cannot be cancelled once placed.
What is the lead time if I order this model?+
Lead times depend on the model and current production schedule. In-stock units can usually be collected or delivered after purchase is completed. Build-to-order units take longer — we will confirm timing when you enquire. Contact your nearest Cabins Direct yard for current availability.
How is this unit delivered?+
Units are typically delivered by truck. Site access, a level pad, and crane or forklift (where required) must be confirmed before delivery. Yard pickup is also available and includes a handover. Freight quotes are available from your nearest yard.
Do I need council approval?+
Council and building-approval requirements vary by council, site, and how you intend to use the unit. Cabins Direct supplies the product. Permits, site works, and connections are the purchaser’s responsibility unless we have quoted them separately. Check with your local council before you order.
Is this unit assembled in Australia?+
Yes. Cabins Direct cabins are converted in Australia. Containers are inspected and sold as plain steel shells.
Is this container converted or fitted out?+
No. Containers are plain steel shells sold as-is. If you want a liveable interior, that is a cabin — see the Cabins range.
Do I need a crane to place this container?+
Most 20ft and 40ft units are craned or tilt-tray delivered onto a prepared pad. Corner castings are designed for a crane lift. Confirm access, overhead clearance, and crane capacity with your yard before delivery.
Is this a new or used container?+
Condition is listed in the specifications on this page. New units are unused shells. Used units are inspected on the yard and sold as plain containers. Ask your yard if you need photos of the specific unit.
Can I use this container as an office, workshop, or storage?+
A plain container suits storage and many site uses. If you need a fitted office, workshop, or liveable interior, browse Cabins rather than this container listing.
