Open-top containers have tarpaulin roofs that can be removed. This makes them great for cargo that is too tall. They are easy to use, just like regular shipping containers. This design makes loading and unloading simple. So, they are perfect for machinery, boilers, farm equipment, pipes, and cables.

We have new and used 20’ and 40’ open-top containers at our UK locations. This means we can deliver across the country.
