40FT Original Open Top Container
This 40ft x 8ft used open-top container is available for sale and delivery USA, UK-wide.
Open top containers do not have the conventional steel corrugated container roof. Instead, they have removable bows and a weatherproof tarpaulin which can be secured with ropes. This significantly simplifies the loading and unloading process which is usually done by a crane from above. The door header (above the door) can also be swung round / removed to allow easy access for the cargo.

The original 40ft open top container is suitable for the transport of products of an extraordinary size. For example, larger machines or equipment. The container is suitable for loads with a flexible height, in addition, the handling can be done with a crane or a forklift truck. The container can be sealed with a tarpaulin on the top.
Open top containers are ideal for the movement of machinery. The container must be shipped with the bows and tarpaulin which also provide some strength. If the machinery is over height then usually you will need to use a flat rack container that has no roof at all. Lashing rings are provided for securing the load during transport.
