Whether you need council approval for a 20-foot container on your property depends on its intended use and location. In most cases, temporary storage containers do not require council consent, but requirements vary by council. Containers used as permanent structures, such as an office or workshop, may require specific permits, especially in residential or high-density areas. We recommend checking with your local council to confirm any regulations that apply in your area.
