In the 2014/2015 financial year (July 2014-June 2015), total throughput at five major Australian container ports was 7.1 million TEUs, up 2.8% from the previous financial year.

Total throughput volumes have increased every year since 1998–99, with the exception of 2008–09. The overall decline in throughput in that year was mostly due to the effects and subsequent recovery from the Global Financial Crisis (GFC).
Throughput increased at all ports, with the exception of Adelaide which fell by 4.4 percent due largely to a decline in volumes associated with specific trade areas.

The largest increase was in Fremantle (5.8 percent). Volumes increased by a lesser amount in Sydney and Brisbane (both 3.8 percent) and Melbourne (1.8 percent).

Melbourne continued to be Australia's largest national container port in 2014–15, processing 2.6 million TEUs. Its share of national TEUs has declined since 1998–99, from 39.0 percent to 36.2 percent in 2014–15.

Sydney continued to be Australia's second-largest container port, with 2.3 million TEUs processed in 2014–15. Since 1998–99, its share of national TEUs has increased from 30.6 percent to 32.2 percent. Brisbane was ranked third, handling 1.1 million TEUs in 2014–15. Its share has increased since 1998–99, from 12.5 percent to 16.0 percent.
