Container Types

There are two types of containers used in international maritime containerized freight transport: general purpose containers, which are suitable for most cargoes, and special purpose containers, which are designed for particular commodities.

General purpose (dry van) containers come in two sizes: 20-foot equivalent units (TEU), the standard size for ocean freight transport, and 40-foot equivalent units (FEU). A 20-foot container is typically 6.1 meters long, 2.4 meters wide and 2.6 meters high; a 40-foot container is typically 12.2 meters long, 2.4 meters wide and 2.6 meters high—the length varies depending on the type of chassis used to move it over land from port

What's the difference between reefers and dry vans ...Sep 28, 2020· Reefer containers have an airtight seal and cooling unit installed on top of them which allows them to keep goods cold or frozen during transport.. This can be set anywhere from -25°C (–13°F) up to +30°C (86 °F).

Open Side Containers

The open side containers have full width side doors on one side in addition to the floor-to-ceiling door on the end. This allows for quick loading and unloading of equipment, materials, or vehicles. Open side containers are available in 20′, 40′, and 45′ lengths.

Open Top Containers

Open top containers have a removable tarp on top that can be rolled back to allow items to be loaded from above using cranes or other lifting devices. Open top containers are ideal for large pieces of equipment that cannot fit through a standard container door opening. Other common uses include scrap metal recycling as well as construction projects requiring removal of debris such as concrete chunks/slabs and shingles/tiles from roofs. Open top containers are available in 20′ and 40′ lengths only but we usually recommend upgrading to an overheight (high cube) container if you plan on loading this type of material into your shipping container since the extra height gives you more room inside your container than a regular high cube does when removing the tarp cover .

With an anti-slip coating on the roof, and a simple ladder built into the front of the unit, these units were designed for workers to be able to safely attach the harness to the 4 specially designed corner castings and then onto a crane hook/winch.
