Product Details

20ft X 8ft Used Shipping Container – Open-Top

This 20ft x 8ft used open top container is currently available for purchase and delivery across South Africa.

Open top containers lack the standard steel corrugated roof found in traditional containers. Instead, they feature removable bows and a weather-resistant tarpaulin that can be fastened with ropes. This design greatly facilitates the loading and unloading process, which is typically performed by a crane from above. Additionally, the door header (located above the door) can be swung around or removed to provide easy access for cargo.

These open top containers are particularly well-suited for transporting machinery. It is essential that the container is shipped with the bows and tarpaulin, as they contribute to the overall strength of the container. In cases where the machinery exceeds height restrictions, a flat rack container, which has no roof, is generally required. Lashing rings are included to secure the load during transit.

FEATURES

Removable roof
Lashing rings enable cargo to be secured

BENEFITS

Removable roof allows for craneage of large or heavy items from above

A larger 40ft open top container is also available for sale.
