The 20ft Open Top Shipping Container is specifically designed to handle cargo that cannot fit into standard containers due to height restrictions. Featuring a removable tarpaulin roof and top-loading capability, this unit allows for easy loading and unloading of oversized goods using cranes or other lifting equipment.
With external dimensions of 6.058 m (length) × 2.438 m (width) × 2.591 m (height), the Open Top Container is ideal for transporting oversized or bulky goods, such as heavy industrial machinery, prefabricated building materials, timber, steel beams, coal, food sacks, timber, or turbine components.
Although the container is built without a fixed roof, the hard or soft top provides reliable protection against rain, dust, and other environmental factors, ensuring your cargo remains secure throughout transit.
At Tradecorp, we supply both new and used 20ft Open Top Shipping Containers, all CSC-certified for safe and seamless use across intermodal freight systems including road, rail, and sea transport. Contact us today to request a quote or more information by completing our enquiry form.

The 20ft Open Top Shipping Container is a practical solution for transporting oversized or bulky goods, such as coal, food sacks, timber, and construction materials. Its open-top design makes loading and unloading with cranes simple and efficient, while the steel structure provides strong protection against harsh conditions. The container is equipped with multiple ventilation points that improve airflow. For added security, lashing points are strategically positioned to keep cargo stable throughout the journey.
The main difference lies in the height of the unit. A 20ft Open Top stands at 8 feet 6 inches (2.591 meters), while the 20ft High Cube Open Top is taller, measuring 9 feet 6 inches (2.896 meters). This additional height provides extra capacity, making the High Cube version ideal for transporting over-height or bulky cargo that requires more vertical space.
