Frequently Asked Questions

Do you need council approval for a shipping container in Tasmania?

Containers used as temporary storage are still being used as part of their original use (transportation) and don’t need special approval.

However, if you’re thinking of putting a shipping container anywhere on your property, the first thing you need to do is check with your local council to see if you will be complying with your local planning scheme.

If you do not have a suitable place to put the container on your property it can sometimes be put on a grass verge or in a parking bay outside your house. Local council will assess if there are any issues having the container there and let you know how long it can stay there.

The planning scheme will determine:
• where you can put a shipping container;
• how many you can have on your property; and
• if the shipping container will be an eyesore
You may need to apply for development approval to place a container on your property.
