Before delivery, we check the container weight, available space and site access requirements.

We work with customers to plan deliveries around terminal bookings and site requirements.
Skeletal Trailer Container Transport
Our skeletal trailers are suitable for moving shipping containers between ports, warehouses and loading facilities.
This option is useful when a customer has equipment available to load or unload the container.
We can arrange transport based on the container size, weight and delivery requirements.
Live Loading and Unloading
Some businesses need a truck to wait while their container is loaded or unloaded.
We offer live loading and unloading arrangements, subject to availability and agreed waiting times.
This service can help customers who need to complete their container work during a planned delivery window.
Empty Container Dehire
Once your import container is empty, it usually needs to be returned to an approved empty container park.
VIRK Transport Services can arrange empty container dehire in Melbourne.
We follow the nominated return location and relevant depot booking requirements. This helps customers manage container returns and reduce avoidable delays.
Refrigerated Container Transport
We also provide transport options for refrigerated shipping containers.
Reefer transport requires careful planning. Power needs, temperature requirements and delivery arrangements should be confirmed before booking.
