40ft Shipping Container With Open Top – Load From the Top, Ship With Confidence
The 40ft Shipping Containers with open top are specifically engineered for transporting and storing tall or irregularly shaped cargo that can’t be loaded through standard container doors. With a removable tarpaulin roof and reinforced structure, this container makes it easy to load large, heavy, or crane-lifted cargo directly from above, while ensuring full protection during transit.
It’s the smart choice for heavy industry, construction, mining, and machinery transport.
Key Features:
-
Open Top Access: Easily load cargo from above using cranes or forklifts — ideal for tall or awkward items.
-
Removable Roof Bow & Tarp: Flexible PVC tarpaulin with detachable support bows keeps cargo protected from the elements.
-
Heavy-Duty Build: Made from corten steel and designed to handle oversized, dense, and heavy cargo loads.
-
Reinforced Corner Posts: For safe stacking and structural integrity during transport.
-
International Shipping Ready: ISO-certified and CSC-plated for seamless intermodal use.
