Additional Information
40ft Flat Rack Shipping Container
The 40ft Flat Rack shipping container is the specialized solution for heavy machinery transport and oversized cargo. With collapsible end walls and reinforced floor, it transports construction equipment, industrial plants, and oversized goods that exceed standard container dimensions. This platform solution is essential for heavy transport and project logistics.
Versatile Application Possibilities
Construction
Robust storage for building materials: Construction companies use Flat Rack containers for transport of excavators, cranes, and construction machinery up to 45 tons. Oversized steel beams and prefab components are securely fixed. Perfect for construction site logistics with heavy machinery transport and oversized building components.
Industry
Versatile industrial applications: Mechanical engineering companies transport production equipment and large machinery on reinforced platform. Energy suppliers load transformers and power plant components. Ideal for plant construction and heavy machinery transport up to 45 tons total weight.
Retail
Flexible storage solutions for trade: Vehicle dealers transport construction machinery and commercial vehicles on Flat Rack platforms. Agricultural machinery dealers use them for tractors and harvesters. Recycling companies load scrap vehicles and metal scrap efficiently.
Flat Rack Heavy Transport
The collapsible end walls enable loading of oversized goods up to 4.30 meters width. The reinforced floor carries point loads up to 10 t/m² for heavy machinery transport. Lashing points on all sides secure even asymmetric cargo. Optimal solution for goods exceeding container standard dimensions.
Heavy Transport Specifications
- End walls: Collapsible, up to 4.30m width possible
- Floor loading: Reinforced, up to 10 t/m² point load
- Lashing eyes: 32 pieces, 5 tons tensile strength each
- Loading height: Up to 4.50 meters without height restriction
- Total weight: Up to 45 tons including container
Expert Tip
The 40ft Flat Rack container offers maximum flexibility for heavy machinery transport and is perfect for oversized goods and construction equipment. The collapsible end walls make it the first choice for goods exceeding standard container dimensions.
Economics for UK Operations
With a purchase price of €3,650 (Used CW), monthly costs over 20 years amount to €15.21. Additional costs include approximately €85 for site and insurance. Total costs of €100.21 monthly for heavy transport capability are economically attractive.
Heavy Transport Cost Comparison UK
| Solution | Monthly Costs | Heavy Transport | Special Feature |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flat Rack Container | €100 | Up to 45t | Oversized possible |
| Standard Container | €67 | No | Standard dimensions only |
| Heavy Transport (daily) | €1,200 | Yes | Temporary only |
Construction Machinery Specialization
Construction machinery dealers use Flat Rack containers for transport of excavators, wheel loaders, and cranes. The reinforced platform carries even asymmetric loads safely. Agricultural machinery dealers transport tractors and combine harvesters economically. Heavy transport companies use them for project logistics.
Construction Machinery Transport Optimization
Construction machinery logistics achieve transport efficiency of up to 98% for oversized machines through Flat Rack containers. The 32 lashing eyes enable secure fixing even with unfavorable center of gravity. Construction machinery transport becomes safer and more economical through reinforced construction.
Quality Guarantee & Certification
Quality Grades
Used Grade A - Excellent: Very good condition, minimally used. 1-2 trips maximum, no structural defects, fully functional. Flat Rack construction and lashing eyes tested and perfect.
Certifications
- QS Quality Assurance: International standards
- ISO 9001:2015: Quality management system
- CSC-Plate: International transport approval
Your Safety
All containers undergo a 127-point inspection before delivery and meet the highest British safety standards. Special testing of lashing eye load capacity and end wall mechanics for heavy transport.
Installation and Heavy Transport Logistics
The container requires a paved area of 13 × 5 meters for oversized cargo. Crane boom should reach at least 20 meters for heavy machinery transport. Lashing eyes must be checked for functionality before loading. Building permits are usually not required.
Conclusion
The 40ft Flat Rack shipping container is the optimal solution for companies with heavy machinery transport and oversized goods. The investment typically pays for itself through saved heavy transport costs and optimized construction machinery logistics within 4-5 years.
