Maximize your loading efficiency and flexibility with our 40ft Side Opening Shipping Container—designed for ease of access, durability, and secure storage. Featuring full side doors that open at the sides as well as the ends, this container is ideal for businesses and projects requiring convenient, wide access for large or awkward cargo.
These one-trip (new) 40ft high cube side-opening shipping containers offer exceptional storage capacity, flexible access, and robust security. They’re perfect for storing pallets, and oversized items, or for emergency response setups where fast access to various equipment is essential.
This container model is available only as a one-trip (new) unit. It’s a relatively new design that shipping lines don’t yet use in their fleets, so there’s currently no supply of used units. We can occasionally offer used units if a previous customer resells one, but availability is extremely limited.
Each container features one large set of full side-opening doors and a single set of end doors. This configuration is ideal for operations requiring frequent access or high stock turnover. It provides maximum flexibility for loading and unloading large, bulky items that might not fit through standard end doors — making it a great alternative to costly warehouse space. Some models are also available with two sets of side doors and a central pillar for added versatility.
As this design is still relatively new, specifications can vary slightly between manufacturers and models. If you have specific requirements, please let us know — otherwise, we’ll quote the closest match or the most cost-effective option to suit your needs.
All of our containers are constructed from Corten (COR-TEN A grade) steel, a high-quality anti-rust alloy. When exposed to the elements, the steel forms a protective, non-porous rust layer that prevents water penetration and shields the metal underneath. This ensures your container remains structurally sound and built to last for many years.

Notes on Delivery:
• To unload the shelter upon delivery, a forklift with a minimum load capacity of 1000 kg is required. This ensures the safe and efficient handling of the shipment. In cases where a forklift is not available, alternative arrangements can be made, though please note that additional charges may apply for such accommodations.
