40-Foot Open-Side Container: Maximum Access Storage Solution
40-Foot Open-Side Container: Maximum Access Storage Solution
The 40-foot open-side container is one of the most unique containers on the market. With a completely open side, reinforced floor, and dual entry options, it's built for applications requiring easy loading and maximum accessibility.
What Makes It Different
Unlike standard containers, the open-side design allows loading from the side rather than just the end. This unique configuration makes it one of the more premium options, but for the right applications, the accessibility is unmatched.
The floor is reinforced to handle the structural demands of an open side, making it approximately twice the height of a standard container floor. This extra height ensures durability and stability under load. Cambered floor design has a slight curve that levels itself once you load cargo inside, optimizing weight distribution.
Dual entry options the container includes both the open side and regular shipping container doors on the rear. This means you don't have to open the large side doors every time you enter/use the standard doors for quick access.
Exterior Dimensions:
- Width: 8 feet
- Height: 9½ feet (High Cube)
- Length: 40 feet
Interior Dimensions:
- Height: 8 feet
- Width: 7½ feet
- Length: 40 feet
Despite being a high cube, the interior dimensions remain similar to a standard 40-foot container due to the elevated floor. The space is finished with marine-grade plywood.
Open-side containers are ideal for projects requiring side loading—equipment storage, vehicle transport, machinery, or any application where end-door access isn't practical.
