40FT x 8FT Used Shipping Container – Open-Top

The 40ft x 8ft used CONTAINER OPEN-TOP provides a strong, flexible, and easy-access solution for oversized or heavy cargo. We deliver this unit across the UK. Unlike a standard steel container with a fixed corrugated roof, this open-top model uses removable bows and a durable weatherproof tarpaulin. You can secure the cover quickly with ropes, which helps keep your cargo dry and protected. Because the roof removes fully, you can load items from above with a crane, making the process faster and more efficient.

The container design supports better front access as well. You can swing open or remove the door header to create a wider opening. This feature helps when you’re loading machinery, tall items, or equipment that cannot fit through regular container doors. As a result, this open-top container works extremely well for construction equipment, industrial parts, and irregularly shaped loads.

Many businesses choose open-top containers for transporting machinery, oversized components, and tall items that require overhead lifting. During transportation, you must refit the bows and tarpaulin to maintain the container’s structural integrity. If your cargo exceeds typical height limits even with the tarpaulin installed, you may need a flat rack container instead. A flat rack offers a fully open structure with no roof, giving you maximum height clearance.

For enhanced safety, this open-top container includes strong lashing rings along the interior. You can secure your cargo tightly to prevent shifting during transit. This reduces the risk of damage and ensures a safer, more stable journey.
