New 20-Foot Hard Top Container – Strong, Secure, and Versatile
A new 20-foot Hard Top shipping container is designed for heavy-duty cargo that requires extra strength and flexibility during loading and transport. Its removable steel roof and wide-opening doors allow for efficient handling of oversized or heavy goods that cannot be loaded through standard container doors. Perfect for industrial equipment, dense raw materials, or bulk cargo, this container offers superior functionality for demanding logistics operations.
Built from robust Corten steel, the container provides excellent resistance against harsh weather conditions and long-term wear. Fully ISO and CSC certified, it complies with international shipping standards, ensuring safe and reliable transport worldwide. The reinforced roof and lashing points inside guarantee that cargo is securely stowed for maximum safety.
How a 20-Foot Hard Top Container Works
A 20-foot Hard Top container features a removable solid steel roof that can be lifted by crane or forklift, enabling top-loading of heavy or irregular cargo. Once loaded, the steel roof can be reattached to provide full protection against weather and external impacts. Internal lashing rings are used to secure cargo during transit, ensuring it remains stable and safe throughout the journey.
What does “new container” mean?
A “new” shipping container is a so-called one-trip container – it has only been used once for transport from the factory to its first destination. This ensures minimal wear and tear, perfect condition, and the highest standards of durability and longevity compared to used containers.

For any products under 40ft long:
When buying a container online, you can choose to have your container delivered with or without a crane.
With Crane
Your container will be delivered on a truck-mounted crane, allowing the driver to lift and position the container without additional offloading equipment.
To facilitate a truck-mounted crane delivery, you will need:
- Length Clearance: 18.75m (61.5ft)
- Height Clearance: 4m (13ft)
- Width Clearance: 3.65m (12ft)
Without Crane (Standard Chassis)
If you select delivery without a crane, your container will be delivered on a flat chassis with no built-in offloading equipment. You will therefore be responsible for offloading the container yourself using the appropriate heavy-duty equipment.
To facilitate a delivery without a crane, you will also need:
- Length Clearance: 18.75m (61.5ft)
- Height Clearance: 4m (13ft)
- Width Clearance: 3.65m (12ft)

When buying a container online, you can choose to have your container delivered by side-loader or standard chassis.
With a Side-Loader
Your container will be delivered on a specialized truck called a side-loader (sometimes also known as a side-lifter). This vehicle has hydraulic arms that lift the container off the trailer and set it down beside the truck.
To facilitate a side-loader delivery, you will need:
- Length Clearance: 18.75m (61.5ft)
- Height Clearance: 4m (13ft)
- Width Clearance: 3.65m (12ft)
Standard Chassis
If you select delivery by standard chassis, you will be responsible for lifting and placing your shipping container on the ground with the appropriate heavy-duty equipment.
To facilitate delivery on a standard chassis, you will also need:
- Length Clearance: 18.75m (61.5ft)
- Height Clearance: 4m (13ft)
- Width Clearance: 3.65m (12ft)
