20ft / 40ft Flat Rack Shipping Container – Heavy & Oversized Cargo Solution

Flat rack containers are built for specialized cargo that cannot fit into standard containers due to size, shape, or weight. With no side walls and collapsible or fixed end walls, flat racks provide maximum flexibility for loading bulky machinery, vehicles, pipes, timber, and construction equipment.

Constructed from corten steel, these containers are extremely durable and can handle heavy loads while ensuring safe and secure transport. Their open design allows cranes and forklifts to load from the top or sides, making them ideal for industries dealing with oversized or irregularly shaped cargo.

Available in both 20ft and 40ft options, flat racks come in two main types:

• Collapsible Flat Racks: End walls fold down for easy stacking and return transport.

• Fixed-End Flat Racks: Stronger for heavy-duty use with rigid end walls.
