The benefits of open side containers

• A side-open container has advantages and additional functions that other styles do not have.
• One benefit is that they are stackable, which means you can stack them on top of each other to make more storage space. Another great benefit is their versatility; they are the only shipping containers with side doors.
• These doors allow for easy loading and unloading from both ends and can even be loaded and unloaded through the doors if required. The fact that it doesn’t matter which end needs to be open also means that there isn’t any wasted space in the middle of the container when loading.
• Another benefit of the side open container is that it allows forklifts to easily load and unload goods. This means that companies with forklifts are more likely to buy this container type, as it is the only one that makes sense when it comes to loading and unloading.
• The main advantage of open-side containers is that they can accommodate oversized equipment.
• Another advantage of open-sided containers is that the amount of space can be utilized to the maximum.
• Besides, boxing and unboxing are faster than other types of containers.
• Unlike other standard containers, larger-sized goods can be easily loaded into side-opening containers.
• Another benefit of side-opening containers is that cargo sorting can be easily done without unloading everything inside the container.
• Entrance for Oversized Items—Side-opening shipping containers with larger doors provide sufficient space for oversized items that cannot pass through the container’s regular doors. This increases the number of items you can transport and store using these metal boxes.
• Better access to stored items: Since shipping containers are loaded from the back to the front, accessing the items that were loaded first will require you to remove the items at the front to get to them. With side-opening containers, the cargo loaded first does not have to come out last, making retrieving items fast and efficient.
• Better utilization of containers – side doors also help to improve the utilization of the container, as the container can be divided into two or more parts to serve as multiple cafes, shops, or offices.

Open side containers have two sets of double doors on the long sides. Such two doors are arranged to open the entire length of the container, giving full access to the container for loading and unloading. However, in special cases, three-door open-side containers are also manufactured to facilitate customers to meet their requirements. Side doors are manufactured to open 8ft or 20ft openings for 20ft containers upon request.

A side-open container has a door on one of the long sides of the container. This type of door arrangement allows the forklift to be used sideways as it can drive into the container and then load or unload the cargo from either end. It also means that people can quickly load and unload this type of container.

 Features of a side-opening container

• High-quality steel structure, providing the toughness and durability you expect from a shipping container
• Water seals on all doors to keep the cargo interior dry and pest-free
• Sturdy marine-quality timber floors
• Standard door with full opening of 270 degrees

Companies that need to ship items frequently can also benefit from using side-open containers. For example, UPS and other shipping lines will load and unload cargo faster than using conventional containers. There is also no wasted space when removing items from this type of storage container, unlike other styles.

Construction firms can also use these containers to store tools and equipment or as temporary offices. These work best on construction sites where many different people come and go throughout the day.

Another widespread use is the transport of goods across seas by ship or truck. These containers can be loaded on ships or trucks and can be filled from the side, making loading quicker and easier.

Even at home, this storage container has a purpose. For example, these can be used as sheds to store backyard equipment. You need to have enough space for your container, but if you do, it can be a great place to store any kind of lawn care equipment or outdoor tools.
