COSCO 20ft Shipping Container - Model TJC2-37-01 - Customs Approved Transport
Overview
This is a genuine COSCO 20-foot shipping container, approved for international transport under customs seal. The TJC2-37-01 model is a workhorse of global logistics, engineered for secure cargo transport across maritime, rail, and road networks. Built to ISO 668 standards, this container has served in commercial shipping operations and remains suitable for storage, transport, or conversion projects. The unit carries full customs certification documentation visible on the compliance plate, confirming its legitimacy for regulated transport applications.
The container presents as a well-used but functional asset. Exterior paintwork shows weathering consistent with years of maritime and terrestrial service, with surface rust developing on the steel corner posts and locking hardware. The light blue livery remains largely intact with visible COSCO and Florens branding. Interior flooring comprises timber and steel composite panels showing wear patterns typical of loaded container service. All four corner posts remain structurally sound, and the door frame, whilst showing minor denting on the lower sections, operates and seals effectively. Locking mechanisms are present and functional.
In today's market, 20ft containers in serviceable condition trade between AUD 2,500 and 4,500 depending on structural integrity and remaining service life. This unit, with its customs approval certification and functional locking systems, represents solid value for buyers seeking storage, transport, or conversion applications. Comparable units of similar age and condition have sold recently in the AUD 3,000 to 3,800 range.
