Product overview
The 40ft Used Flat Rack Shipping Container is a heavy-duty, open-frame platform designed for transporting oversized cargo that won’t fit in standard containers. With collapsible or fixed-end walls and no side panels or roof, it’s ideal for heavy machinery, vehicles, pipe, lumber, or other bulk materials.
Built from high-strength Corten steel and rated for stacking, each unit offers exceptional durability and loading flexibility. This container type is commonly used in marine shipping, rail transport, or industrial staging applications.
All used units are cargo-worthy and inspected to ensure structural reliability. Cosmetic wear such as surface rust, dents, and paint fading may be present.
Delivery options
We offer two types of trucks for container delivery:
Tilt-Bed Truck (recommended if no unloading equipment is available):
The truck will back into position, tilt the bed, and slide the container off onto the ground.
Requirements: 125 ft of straight clearance, 12 ft width, and 16 ft vertical clearance.
Flatbed Truck (if you have a forklift or crane on-site):
A forklift (minimum 15,000 lb capacity) or crane is required to unload the container.
Requirements: 125 ft of straight clearance, 12 ft width, and 14 ft vertical clearance.
Site Preparation
Before scheduling delivery, please ensure:
- Clear, unobstructed access for the delivery truck
- No overhead obstacles such as trees, utility lines, or structures
- Dry, solid ground conditions (notify us if the ground is soft, wet, or muddy)
Containers are placed directly onto flat, level surfaces. No foundation is required for ground storage.
Delivery Timing
Delivery is typically completed within 1–3 business days after your container is ready for dispatch.
