Additional Information
40ft Open Top Shipping Container
The 40ft Open Top shipping container is the specialized solution for crane loading and oversized cargo. With removable tarpaulin and reinforced lifting eyes, it enables vertical loading of machinery, equipment, and bulky goods that don't fit through standard door openings. This solution is essential for heavy cargo logistics and project shipping.
Versatile Application Possibilities
Construction
Robust storage for building materials: Construction companies use Open Top containers for crane loading of steel beams, precast concrete elements, and construction machinery. Long pipes and profiles can be lifted vertically. Perfect for construction sites with crane logistics and oversized building components.
Industry
Versatile industrial applications: Mechanical engineering companies transport production equipment and large machinery via crane loading. Steel construction companies load structural components and beams vertically. Ideal for plant construction and heavy machinery transport.
Retail
Flexible storage solutions for trade: Garden centers store trees and large plants with crane unloading. Building material dealers use vertical loading for pipes and beams. Recycling companies load scrap and metal parts efficiently.
Open Top Crane Loading
The removable tarpaulin enables unrestricted access from above. Reinforced lifting eyes at all four corners carry up to 30 tons point load. The open top allows loading of goods up to 4.50 meters height. Optimal solution for goods that don't fit through 2.34 meter door opening.
Crane Loading Specifications
- Lifting eyes: 4 pieces, 30 tons load capacity each
- Tarpaulin: Removable, waterproof, UV-resistant
- Loading height: up to 4.50 meters possible
- Side walls: Reinforced for lateral pressure
- Floor: Reinforced for point loads up to 5 t/m²
Expert Tip
The 40ft Open Top container offers maximum flexibility for crane loading and is perfect for oversized goods and heavy cargo. The removable tarpaulin makes it the first choice for goods requiring vertical loading.
Economics for UK Operations
With a purchase price of €6,200 (Used Grade A), monthly costs over 20 years amount to €25.83. Additional costs include approximately €75 for site and insurance. Total costs of €100.83 monthly for crane loading capability are economically attractive.
Crane Loading Cost Comparison UK
Solution | Monthly Costs | Crane Loading | Special Feature |
---|---|---|---|
Open Top Container | €101 | Yes | Up to 4.50m height |
Standard Container | €67 | No | Door loading only |
Crane Rental (daily) | €800 | Yes | Temporary only |
Heavy Cargo Specialization
Heavy cargo forwarders use Open Top containers for machinery and equipment up to 26 tons. Project logistics companies transport power plant components and industrial equipment. Reinforced lifting eyes enable safe loading even with unfavorable center of gravity.
Project Logistics Optimization
Plant construction projects achieve loading efficiency of up to 95% for oversized components through Open Top containers. Crane logistics can be optimally matched to the four lifting eyes. Heavy cargo transport becomes safer and more efficient 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. Open Top construction and lifting 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 lifting eye load capacity and tarpaulin attachment.
Installation and Crane Logistics
The container requires a paved area of 13 × 3 meters plus crane working area. Crane boom should reach at least 15 meters. Tarpaulin must be completely removed before crane work. Building permits are usually not required.
Conclusion
The 40ft Open Top shipping container is the optimal solution for companies with crane loading requirements and oversized goods. The investment typically pays for itself through saved crane rental and optimized heavy cargo logistics within 3-4 years.
